If you were to really hate and dislike a picture with all your heart, so that you could not bear to see or hear of it, how would you like it if someone insisted on getting to know and honor you through such a hated, horrible book? ...

Andreas Karlstadt, On the Removal of Images (1522), p. 109

When the crucified Jesus is called the 'image of the invisible God', the meaning is that this is God, and God is like this.
