Nowadays the papists argue that the use of images is to be retained in the church. Let them give their churches true and apostolic painters who will portray the image of Christ crucified on the tables of the heart, using the brush of the word and gospel of God and bringing it to life by their teaching and behavior, just as we read that the apostle did among the Galatians. But instead they throw painters of this kind out of the churches, proscribe them and persecute them, and meanwhile fill their buildings with deaf and dumb wooden and stone images of the saints.

For the reference, see Wolfgang Musculus on painting the true image of Christ in churches.
