The Theology of Icons
Icons are not mere decorations or religious art — they are a confession of faith. When we venerate an icon, we affirm that God truly became man in Jesus Christ, that the invisible God became visible and can be depicted. As St. John of Damascus wrote: "I do not worship matter; I worship the Creator of matter who became matter for my sake."
The Seventh Ecumenical Council (787 AD) definitively affirmed the veneration of icons, declaring that the honor given to the icon passes to its prototype — the person depicted. Icons are thus a crucial part of Orthodox Christian life, present in the Church, in the home prayer corner, and carried in the heart.
