I bought a beautiful large framed photo of Jesus (In the picture he is holding a baby -it is so life-like and so beautiful)
Do you think it is wrong to have a picture like that in your home when you don't go to church?

Absolutely not! The reason Jesus went to the cross was because we are all sinners and God loves us enough to sacrifice His only son so that we might be forgiven. As in the Bible where is states, "While we are still sinners, Christ died for us...." Nowhere does it say that we have to attend church in order to love God in our hearts, so I don't think you need to worry about being wrong about hanging a picture of Jesus in your home or anywhere else. I think it shows the intent of your heart to have that picture hanging there. So keep smiling and know that God loves you!

First let me state that God does not stop accepting believers based on whether a person attends church.In the bible we are instructed to go quietly and pray.Your prayers are heard regardless of where you are.Shut ins who believe are not denied God's love because they cannot attend church.Many churches have parishioners who give the members home visits.Do you think God closes his ears to those in hospitals, battlefields or at home.Jesus gave his sermons on a hillside,in God's church.You are not wrong to have a religious picure up.It is a symbol of your faith.We are all sinners.Trust me you are not alone.Take care.

Not at all the Bible tells us all have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God.God loves you and all his children he may not like what we do sometimes but he always loves us.You dont have to go to church to be a Christian,we Christians are not perfect just forgiven and you can be too.Being a Christian is not a religion its a reality.John 3:16.God bless you and yours Merry Chritmas.

No. Hang your picture. Incase you feel this way not going to church does not make you a sinner, we are all sinners saved by grace.

And who is not a sinner?
Personally, I don't like pictures of Jesus but many people feel differently....

Do you have pixs of the people you love in your home? mother, father, sisters brothers, friends? There is nothing wrong with having a picture of someone you love in your home, especially if you think you might have hurt them in some way and want to make amends.

No, if it moves you, that's a good thing. It sounds like a beautiful picture.

Is it wrong for me to have a big picture of a horse up in my living room when I have never actually ridden a horse?
Of course not.

No. Many "sinners" have religious pictures.
