IDOLS

'...idols are lies, not because God is invisible or cannot be pictured, but because idols fail to picture what is most important about him - his personality, his ability to see, hear, speak, and interact with his creatures. Without personality, God cannot judge - good news for unbelieving hedonists, but bad news for the universe. And without personality, God cannot love - bad news for everybody.'
John Frame, The Doctrine of the Christian Life, p.460.
