Hosea 8:14 AMP For Israel has forgotten his Maker and
built palaces [and pagan temples], And Judah has built many fortified cities; But I will send a fire upon their cities so that it may consume their palaces and fortresses.
Exodus 20:3-5"Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 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. 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"
Deuteronomy 11:16KJV: Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them"
1 Corinthians 10:14KJV Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry. History repeats itself. So many have replaced the true God with either false gods or no God. Consumed with MAGA churches or the things of this world and all its splendor, but where is the creator in all this. I must not forget that salvation is in Jesus and is personal. It's not in the splendor of a building or any other person. Knowing about Jesus is not enough! I must keep my eyes on Jesus and grow in my relationship with Jesus every day.
