IDOL WORSHIP

“Shall a man make gods unto himself? And they are no gods?” By transgression our world has separated itself from His loving Creator. Christ came and created a passage across that obstacle, He united our earth with heaven. God became man and through this great mystery He maintained the purity of His divine character.  In a world of transgression and degradation, through His grace humanity can be reunited with God! He came to impart His own divine nature, to the repentant, believing soul.

"God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life" (John 3:16). These words show us the love that God has for us. Why God's wrath descended on His only begotten Son, why the innocent suffered for the guilty, why the just bore the punishment totally due to the unjust. He came to make an end of sin, and to bring in everlasting righteousness. He can lift sinners from their immoral state.

Many are perplexed as to the best course to take; God says though shall have no other gods before me yet thousands allow themselves to disobey this command and so we find many have hewn out idols of every description and have bowed down to them. Today God is calling us to return to him, He is asking us to put away our idols and serve the true and living God the creator God. Here we find a few things that have replaced God. As you watch this video ponder these things.

“And it shall come to pass, when thou shall show this people all these words, and they shall say unto thee, Wherefore hath the LORD pronounced all this great evil against us? Or what is our iniquity? Or what is our sin that we have committed against the LORD our God? Then shall thou say unto them, Because your fathers have forsaken me, said the LORD, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshipped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law;  And ye have done worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the imagination of his evil heart, that they may not hearken unto me: For mine eyes are upon all their ways: they are not hid from my face, neither is their iniquity hid from mine eyes."  Jer.16:10-12, 17.

Yes my friend, we have sinned against the great God of the Universe. entertaining thoughts that have displeased Him. However because you have made mistakes and your life has been darkened with errors, do not for one moment think your heavenly father does not love you, and therefore has forsaken you. Today, if you hear His voice, harden not your hearts, He will save you, trust Him; repent from your sins, turn and live.
