When Symbols Become Substitutes for Faith
Manage episode 498485077 series 2963638
In this episode, we delve deep into the complexities of sacred objects and their roles in the Christian faith. Join us as we dissect the fine line between reverence and idolatry, questioning what happens when objects meant to guide us towards God become distractions. Or worse - idols themselves.
From biblical examples of relics like the Ark of the Covenant and the bronze serpent to more modern examples (like buildings, bones, and bibles). This episode calls attention to when reverence for symbols supersedes devotion to God Himself, and the consequences that may follow.
