Epilogue: Are you worshipping an idol?



Many of us would rush to answer the question: NO!!!


But how can we be sure? The Bible says that any form of worship which does not solely include the ONLY TRUE GOD is Idolatry or Devil worship.


Exo 32: 3 And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron. 4 And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. 5 And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, Tomorrow is a feast to the LORD.


Aaron sided with the Israelites and made a golden calf, and declared that the

1. Calf was the god which brought them out of Egypt:

2. Built an altar to the calf and declared a feast to the LORD (not to the calf, but to the LORD Jehovah himself)


By the above actions, Aaron and the Israelites equated the calf to the LORD God and provoked Him to anger. Their idea of God was completely contradictory to His true nature. The Most Holy God will never be compared to the work of human hands!


Many people create their own God by adding or removing some attributes to the original.


Some consider Him to be a group of 3 persons (trinitarianism), some consider Him to be a partner of two divine beings (binitarianism), some consider Him to be a part of the universal force (Pantheism), and so on. All these are their own ideas of God- their little golden calves. No matter what they argue, the Bible says that those who do not worship the ONE true God in His TRUE nature are committing idol worship.


The Bible says any other doctrine which denies the oneness of God or degrades his power and holiness by making Him a sinner is just idolatry and “another gospel”. That is why the Apostle John repeatedly exhorts us to keep away from “idols”.


1 John5:21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.


Gal 1:8But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.


The apostle Paul bemoans that the believers fall prey easily to these strange gospels:


2 Cor 11:4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.


Another Jesus: Who is also weak; who also sinned or became a sinner; who was also married; who is also “one of the many ways” to Heaven, etc.


Another Spirit: Which will also prophesy, see visions contradictory to the Word of God, turn water into wine, charge mobile battery, make cash appear in your pockets, turn your dental fillings into gold, make gold dust fall, perform supernatural weight loss/ weight gain etc.


Another Gospel: About you being a god; About immortality on earth; About speaking things into existence; About Jesus being one of the gods; About an ecumenical One world church etc.


To sum up, there is only ONE true God mentioned in the Bible:
