Ok I was watching the movie yesterday King Ralph with John Goodman and it brought up the question...
First if one has never saw the movie John played the part of an American man that was in the lineage of inheriting the throne as the King of England.
There was a lot of bowing to him and a lot of the phrase " your Majesty"..
When I think of Majesty I don't think of men or women here down on Earth..
I think of Jesus Christ as Majesty.
Now in some countries it may be a sign as a greeting but in countries like America if you were to meet the president you could just "Hello".
In the Catholic faith if you were to meet the Pope you bow and may kiss his hand.
So now the question is that in any of these situations do you think that any of these can be construed as more then just a greeting and maybe placing someone higher then Jesus Christ?
In the 10 Commandments number 2 reads as follows...
2. You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness 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 nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
