Understanding Biblical Imagery: Coins, Idols, and the Nature of Christ

This exploration delves into the significance of imagery in the Bible, focusing on various forms and their meanings. From engravings on coins (Matthew 22:20) to carved idols (Acts 19:35), the concept of 'image' evolves through scripture. We examine the earthly and heavenly likeness in 1 Corinthians 15:49, the reflection of God's glory in 2 Corinthians 3:18, and ultimately, Christ as the image of God (2 Corinthians 4:4). Additionally, we analyze the ominous 'image of the beast' referenced in Revelation. What do these images reveal about faith and worship?
