Exodus 20:3,4
3 “You shall have no other gods before me.
4 “You shall not make for yourself any graven image, or any likenes of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them or serve them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generation of those that hate me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.

OK.
So is it alright to use graven images in a devotional way in our worship of the One True God, or is it a sin and expressly forbidden by God?
Is the cross itself, a graven image representing our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus?
