S03E07: The 2nd Commandment: Images of Jesus and the Incomprehensible Glory of God

In this episode of Chorus in the Chaos, Jack, Grayson, and Blake dive deep into the Second Commandment, exploring the significance of worshiping God in spirit and truth. They tackle challenging questions about the use of images in worship, discuss the theological implications of idolatry, and explain why God’s glory cannot be captured through human representation. Drawing insights from scripture, historical theology, and their personal journeys, the hosts aim to clarify how Christians can faithfully obey this command in a culture saturated with visual representations of Christ.

 

Key Topics Covered:

• The biblical basis of the Second Commandment 
• Why God prohibits the creation of His image for worship.
• The theological beauty of the incarnation and its implications for images of Christ.
• Historical and contemporary views on idolatry in worship practices.
• Practical advice for navigating cultural depictions of Jesus.
