Instead, we will summarise the danger of these objects to New Covenant Believers, and then show some of the Scriptures that clearly detail Yahuweh’s definitions of graven images and idols. This has been done in the article, Graven Images and Idols: What Your Pastor Never Told You About The Second Commandment. It is not the purpose of this short writing to focus on the dangers, warnings, and details of how idols affect Born-Again Believers. He has given us many examples in Scripture, to illustrate what a graven image is, and what an idol is. But Yahuweh has made it very clear to us. To answer these questions, we must disregard the many opinions, man-made doctrines and hearsay, and look only to the Scriptures.īecause human nature always tries to justify itself, man has twisted what the Scriptures actually say, by re-defining graven images and idols to accommodate his own actions. “Is the issue of graven images and idols a ‘New Covenant’ issue?” “What is the danger of Idols to New Covenant Believers?” “What does it mean to ‘make’ a Graven Image, according to Scripture?” The Scriptures tell us that anyone who chooses to serve Yahuweh, and to receive His blessings, must not make for themselves any graven image, nor enter in to any form of idolatry.īut in order to be obedient to the words of Scripture about any matter, we must first understand what the Scriptures say about that matter.Īnd so today, many are beginning to seek, and to ask some thoughtful questions.
