Summary

Levi H. Dowling The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ… (1908)

And God would have all men to be the substance, and in mercy he commanded, You shall seek no God but me.
11. And finite men can never comprehend infinite things. Man cannot make an image of the Infinite in force.
12. And when men make a God of stone or wood or clay they make an image of a shade; and they who worship at the shrine of shades are shades.
13. So God in mercy said, You shall not carve out images of wood, or clay, or stone.
14. Such idols are ideals, abased ideals, and men can gain no higher plane than their ideals.
