“To many modern Christians the question of icon-veneration may seem a marginal issue in theology. To St. Theodore, it was clear that iconoclasm is a serious error, which alienates its followers from God as much as any other heresy. That is to say, an iconoclast effectively denies God’s incarnation which alone makes human salvation possible. If Christ could not be portrayed both before and after His resurrection, then He was not truly man, humanity was not truly united to God, and no human beings could expect to become ‘partakers of the divine nature.’” —“Introduction”
