Does the Bible Prohibit Veneration of Icons?

Audio only:

Questions Covered:

  • 20:31 - Has the east dogmatized icons? Is that similar in the west? 
  • 23:42 - Didn’t Jesus say that we are all gods? Shouldn’t we then venerate ourselves? Are we in competition with God? 
  • 36:28 - I am an Orthodox convert to Eastern Catholicism. I would be so let down if I walked into a church without Icons. 
  • 38:05 - Prayer to saints seems to be more than just venerating. Can you help clarify? 
  • 48:27 - I think Elijah’s condemnation of worshiping demons is a warning to not worship saints. What are your thoughts on this?
