The Rise of False-Worship Globally. Part [3] 07/29/2024 (Morning thought)

Exodus 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

Exodus 20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. 8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: 10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates.

[The Great Controversy pp 583] In rejecting the truth, men reject its Author. It is as easy to make an idol of false doctrines and theories as to fashion an idol of wood or stone. With many, a philosophical idol is enthroned in the place of Jehovah; while the living God, as he is revealed in his Word, in Christ, and in the works of creation, is worshiped by but few.

The god of many professedly wise men, of philosophers, poets, politicians, journalists, the god of polished fashionable circles, of many colleges and universities, even of some theological institutions, is little better than Baal, the sun-god of Phoenicia.

Exodus 20:11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!

The Rise of False-Worship Globally. Part [2] 07/29/2024 (Evening thought)

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

In fact, false theories such as evolution, and the big bang theory also constitute false worship for when a wrong concept of God is perpetrated, and wherever there’s a mangled version of the origin of species, all who knowingly choose to subscribe, in a deliberate opposition to the knowledge found in the Bible, are counted as worshipers.

Thus, the time has come when the dangers about false worship must be exposed, because, as of yet, there are many people who do not know what is at stake, and many others are not aware of the serious nature of rendering worship to any other person, or thing, other than to God.

The following therefore are the first laws contained in the Decalogue which address the issue of worship and they are strategically written first, because all of humanity’s other problems, come about as a result of the violations of these four. It always boils down to worship. Always!

Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
