1. What is an Icon?
2. Do Orthodox Christians pray to Icons?
3. Do Icons work miracles?
4. Do Orthodox Christians Worship Icons?
What's the difference between "worship" and "veneration"?
5. Doesn't the 2nd Commandment forbid Icons?
6. Doesn't Deuteronomy 4:14-19 forbid any images of God? How
then can you have Icons of Christ?
7. But considering the violent opposition which Jews had to images,
how would the early Christians have accepted Icons?
8. If Icons are so important, why do we not find them in the
Scriptures?
There were images of cherubim:
1. Exodus 25:18
2. Exodus 26:1
3. Exodus 26:31
4. 1 Kings 6:23
5. 1 Kings 6:29
6. 1 Kings 6:31
7. 1 Kings 7:29,36
9. Why were there only Icons of Cherubim and not of Saints?
10. Okay, granted that there are Icons of sorts in Scripture but where
were the Israelites told that they should venerate them?
11. But what about the Bronze Serpent? Wasn't it destroyed because
the people began venerating it?
