    The second commandment.

    Don't get caught up in the numbering??.. If we are not accurate with the numerical facts why did God call it the 10 commandments?.. Because they are numbered in a order for our obedience Sent from my LGMS631 using Tapatalk

    I respect your position.. But as you can see, it was not a stretch with the commandment nor from the reformers and it shouldn't be for us. Sent from my LGMS631 using Tapatalk

    The second commandment.

    **“God is opposed to idols, that all may know He is the only fit witness to Himself. *He expressly forbids any attempt to represent Him by a bodily shape . . . We must hold it as a first principle, that as often as any form is assigned to God, his glory is corrupted by an impious lie”...

    I'll allow another rendering of the Catechism expound on it if you don't mind,.. Q. 98.*But may not images be tolerated in the churches, as books to the laity?
