Worshiping Idols: Not Just a B.C. Thing
By: Timothy E. Davis
“Their gods are merely manmade things of silver and gold. They can’t talk or see, despite their eyes and mouth. Nor can they use their hands and feet, nor speak. And those who make and worship them are just as foolish as their idols are.” Psalms 115:4-8 (TLB)
Some Christians are getting the Message of Jesus only halfway right. My God would never send would someone to Hell, they say. Christ isn’t really the only way to heaven, they babble. The Father probably wouldn’t mind if they did this just one time, would He? My Boss is gone and I can slip home early, Our King would understand. He knows how early I have to fly out in the morning. They are picking and choosing what they like and rejecting what they don’t. They are practicing what some Pastors call “cafeteria Christianity” They are attempting to create a god in their own image. They go through the Word of God like a Chinese buffet. Don’t like won ton soup? Skip it and have fried ice cream instead. They are practicing idolatry, just like the Hebrews who danced around the golden calf.
Ancient idols were nothing but things of gold, silver, or wood. They had no power at all. They were built with human hands and under human control. The Almighty God warned nations about this love affair with false gods. Usually he would send a prophet out to warn the people. In most cases, they ignored him and ran him out of town, and then Jehovah sent their enemies against them to humble and defeat them.
When we create a god in our own image, we are mocking the true King and setting ourselves up for punishment from Jehovah. When we worship a self- created, watered-down milquetoast version of the real thing, we are committing idolatry. When we pick and choose, taking some things and putting others back, we are angering our Master.
Have you been “creating a god in your image?” Each time you deny Biblical Truth, you anger the Lord of Hosts. If He did not spare Israel, his own people, he would have no problem giving the United States over to her enemies. No, worshiping idols is not just a B.C. problem anymore.

We Are Taking the Great Commission To Cuba! We Are The Only Evangelical Ministry Permitted By The Cuban Government To Preach Christ In Cuba. Please Support Us In This Amazing Opportunity To Spread The Gospel!
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the
Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I
am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Matthew 28:19-20
(KJV)
I belong to the only Evangelical Ministry allowed to operate in Cuba. We are planning a September Missions trip to Cuba to celebrate the graduation of a group of Pastors from one of our Ministry Training Schools, and to preach and teach the Good News of Jesus Christ To The People Of Cuba. I need sponsors for the trip. Although I don't have an exact amount yet, I need to raise approximately $1700 to cover airfare, visa costs, Cuban Entry and Exit Taxes, Currency Exchange fees, food, and lodging for about four days. Please pray for God to lead you to do His Will in this matter. I will issue permanent banner adds on www.spotlesslamb.com to those who assist.
In His Service,
Timothy E. Davis

DO YOU NEED A SPEAKER?
Are You Looking for a Christian Speaker for your church, class, community group, radio or television show? I have done a live television interview, spoken to Christian Businessmen, Jaycees, and Rotarians.
Want to see how "Internet Evangelism" has forever changed the way we can win people to the Lord? Would you like to hear my testimony of my battle with chronic pain for the last eight years and how the Lord used it to get my attention?
I can give my testimony of supernatural healing of depression when the Father told me to stop taking 14 different medicines cold turkey, inviting a fatal heart attack, and a move strongly advised against by physicians.
Want to hear of my journey from walking the aisle at a Youth Camp on a hot July night at the age of 14 to accept Christ, wandering very far away from God, then tearing down the wall I had built between us and returning to Him at the age of 42?
