GP-80-07     The Gospel in Color:  Icons --> $4 + S&H

Orthodox Christians do not worship icons, they actually help keep us from idolatry.  Icons are "window to heaven."  They show us that The Lord Jesus Christ and the saints of heaven are present.  This message also explains the imagery of Exodus 20 and 25 when God forbids making a graven image.

The center of the Christian faith is a human and He has been raised from the dead and we have seen and handled this God Himself.  Jesus is the very Icon of God.
