Idolatry: The evil that has been raging over the centuries!

We find in the Bible which is the word of God as follows:

Exodus 20: 3-6 Thou shalt have no other God before me. Neither shalt thou make for yourself an idol, or image of anything in heaven, on earth or in the waters under the earth. Do not bow down to them or worship them, for I the Lord God am a jealous God punishing the children for the sins of their fathers unto the third and fourth generation of those who despise me, but showing kindness to a thousand generations of those who love Me and keep My commandments. Dear reader , these are not my words but those of Christ! Idolatry whatever it is, it is an affront to God. We can see the 10 commandments holy God himself condemns. Unfortunately for centuries, some churches and religious leaders has been preaching this sophistry. We do not need idols or images to come to God. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 Dear friend every time you are down, or drop a tear before a graven image, or place orders, you cause an offense to the almighty. It is as if someone was canceling the great sacrifice of Christ on Calvary! His death gave us abundant life, or eternal life with Jesus! But the enemy of our souls, Satan, has been preaching this lie through centuries, the worship is not a sin, and that there is no harm about it. See what the Bible says: John 8:44-47 "You belong to your father the devil, and they want to accomplish his wish. He was a murderer from the beginning and did not cling to truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. However, you do not believe me, because I tell the truth. Which of you may accuse me of sin? If I am telling the truth, why do not you believe me? Those who belong to God hears what God says. You do not hear him, not because they belong to God. "This is an evil so serious that we should not eat something that is dedicated to idols or images. We love our friends deeply Catholic and spiritualist, but see what else the bible says, I Corinthians 10:19-20 So, what I mean? Is the sacrifice offered to an idol is anything? No! I mean that pagans sacrifice is offered to demons, not God, and do not want you to have fellowship with devils. Beware of certain parties that you attend! June Festival, Cosmas and Damian, St. Anthony, St. John, and so on. The food and sweets were offered to you before offered to idols, or demons. That's why many diseases, accidents, misfortunes that plague many lives! You, head of the family, care for your children! Do not let them take part in these treats, because there is nothing good in it. Beware you that attend to night clubs! Nothing against this type of entertainment, but there are always people of bad character everywhere! So, what was supposed to be fun, ends up in tragedy! Once, a beautiful young lady took a drink in the club. Someone has placed a pill called "Good date" in her drink. This drug does not alter the color or the flavor. So once the victim ingested can sleep a deep sleep or be taken to death. When this beautiful young lady awoke, she was in the emergency department. Police had discovered that the girl had been raped. Doctors have found six different types of semen found in her genital. John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free. John 8:36 Therefore if the Son sets you free, be free indeed. Son here in the text refers to Jesus Christ! There is only one mediator between God and man. This person is unfortunately not Mary, Joseph, Buddha, Mohammed, Alan Kardec, angels or even images. Is Jesus Christ my dear friends. I Timothy 2:6 For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus who gave himself a ransom for all. Dear friends understood why you should not ask or prostrate to idols and to participate in pagan festivals? To Jesus is given all honor, all glory, for ever and ever amen! Be thou a blessing, whoever you are.
