There's nothing creepy about Roman Catholic churches, I actually love the old ones and as for symbols? Well some do have some symbols and stuff but there's nothing creepy about them. Most symbols are usually related to God, Mary and the Saints. It's just art and the creepiness that you feel might be just powered by your imagination.
Yes bro according to typology, the cherubim signifies christ expressing the glory of God in four aspects, typified by the four faces in ezekiel 1 (unlike ezekiel 41) There four aspects of Christ expressing God is revealed to us in the 4 gospels of the NT. Which are christ as the king saviour, slave saviour, man saviour and life.
basig ugma nako makatubag if naa further question bro ani. Ayo ayo mu dire. God bless you all. Good night.
katoliko ko before then naconvert ko to born again when I was 12 with my family. Nausab jud ako hunahuna sa religion. Basta, about na gani religion mo question jud ko. Mind you, from RC, to muslim. ako jud na questionon. ngano? unsa? giunsa? I'm still searching for the truth. Walay perfect na religion. Pero ang ako lang gituohan nga naay mas labaw nako, og kabalo ko na gamhanan siya og maloloy-on. i dont even believe in hell. hell is just an imagination used to brainwashed the people. Ngano nakasulti ko, gigamit ra na sa mga simbahan aron ang mga tawo moila og simbahanpara makakwarta og uban pang tinguha.
Pero sa tanang religion na akong na encounter mas daghan questionable sa RC. The priests are reading their bibles pero murag wala sila kasabot sa ilang gipangbasa na direct to the point man unta ang uban na mga text sa bible(afterall, we are talking about RC here). Just look at this verse.
Exodus 20:4
“You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below."
So, why do people pray and worship for the saints?
He even said:
"Do not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God."
Exodus 34:14
Saints are not worshiped. It's just like having a picture of your relative or a love one. It's a reminder.
Sa imoha lang di ka mahadlokwhen you just recently mentioned this "bitaw bro, imagine maglakaw ta or lingkod sa tungod ana then ikaw ra usa....heheh. kalit brownout bah!" ... and also this ... "Be Real bro. Sulod sa simbahan ikaw ra usa nya ngitngit, dili maningkag imong tangkugo kung in ana ang imong palibot?"
And then you say you're not sure if Catholics have it? WHY DID YOU SINGLE OUT THE CATHOLICS?
You're scared yourself and you're not Catholic ... Your faith is not as strong as you think... or you don't have faith in him at all. You may claim that you do but claiming ain't enough. You're still scared of the dark. Scared of sculptures that you deem unholy. Wait.... are you scared of the Devil?

As for me ... what's in a dark Church that could possibly hurt me? What could a sculpture do to me?

Why pamper life's complexities when the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat?
