Iconoclasm in Passiontide of Church

About this sermon

Iconoclasm means “image breaking”… more broadly it can mean anyone seeking to destroy cherished beliefs or institutions. During the 8th and 9th Centuries, Iconoclasm of sacred images grew into a very serious and destructive heresy occurring mostly in the Middle East. The Roman Martyrology has many saints who suffered death under this plague. Historically, one might argue that dark times for Holy Mother Church have always been preceded or accompanied by iconoclasm. We are in one of those dark times as Iconoclasm has returned in many ways on various levels. In hiding our images during Passiontide, an outsider might think we are giving way to sort of Iconoclasm. Yet, even though they are covered up… we do not forget them and even long for them to be uncovered. Nevertheless, the veiling does seem to have added significance at this time as we are in a night, a passion of the Church! Without the Cross firmly before our eyes, we cannot endure the trial… With it, victory is guaranteed.
