According to the Heidelberg Catechism, Question 96, 97, and 98. There are really two parts to the Commandment: 1. the making of such images is forbidden, and; 2. the worship of such images is forbidden. You can read the Questions and Answers with Commentary here.

On another forum. Some one asked about wearing a crucifix and most folks subscribe to the idea that unless the image is to be used in worship it is permissible, even condoned.

Heidelberg Catechism; I ve heard of it but I dont know anything about it. Is it much different from Westminster? I see the conclusions the same wrt this particular issue.
