Jesus’ head taken from church’s statue | Ethiopian News
August 23, 2009
In recent months, Wauwatosa has seen cemetery headstones, city stop signs and the Hoyt Park pool house damaged. But this time, vandals have struck a new target: The statue at the entrance to St. Joseph Congregation now features a headless baby Jesus.
OK. Christ is the head of the church according to the New Testament and the congregation itself is the body.
So what does it mean when a thief in Ethiopia steals the head from a church building?
Is he saying that Christ has been deposed as the head of that church?
Or is he just stealing something he thinks he can sell for a good price.
I suspect the latter.
That being said, it would behoove us to make sure we are still connected to the head because it is not usually Him who gets out of proper alignment.
