Idolatry

Human beings are idol-making factories. (John Calvin, 16th century French theologian)

Perhaps you don’t think that’s a fair statement for 21st century people. After all, most of us are not bowing down to idols of wood and stone. In fact, many would claim to be worshipers of God. Idolatry, however, is anything that stands in the place of God. What are we spending our time, energy, and money on? Temporary passing fashions?

You must not have any other god but me. (Exodus 20:3)
