As far as I have learned the Children of Israel would not practice this, although they did mold a calf of gold once turning from the God of all that is briefly. Also, Moses had to dest-roy the snake image that wss used to protect Israel from the outbreak of poisonous snakes in thier camps because some were beginning to worship it.

Of course I believe this practice is an evil deception of the enemy, for the saints are all who are sanctified by the Blood of the Lamb. Saints are not created or appointed by any man, only by the Blood of the Lamb of God.

Is this post designed to cause a controversy? If it does not I will be surprised, but my honest intent is to make people think and pray on the subject. God bless all who worship Jesus Christ as Lord, amen.

First, as an unworthy servant and friend, sorry and If i am not mistaken 'sir JaumeJ', that the 'bronze serpent' made by Moses and by the will of GOD, isn't it 'lifted up and placed' for Israel's 'healing' upon seeing it, from the 'venom' of the snakes, those who were bitten and further being bitten, because they spoke against GOD and Moses earlier?

Second, it is also a practice of evil deception of our own flesh/carnal, because it is written in Galatians 5; 19-21, about the fruit of the flesh/carnal, that is 'evident'. And in verse 20, one of them begins with 'idolatry'.

Third, your post is 'pure' and must not cause any controversy, because this is what the second commandment, of the Ten Commandments of GOD remind and stir up our memory about, that;

"Do not make any 'carved images' or 'anything in it's likeness' and then bow down an worship it. For I AM a jealous GOD ...................................."

Peace be with you in the name of LORD JESUS CHRIST, as an unworthy servant and thank you.
