Denying the Practice of Idol Worship

 Denying the Practice of Idol Worship

Positive Christianity Episode #375


"For the LORD is righteous; he loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold his face."- Psalm 11: 7

The Psalms of David describe how we can persevere worshiping GOD Almighty similar to David despite gangstalking, envy, and persecution Psalm 11: 5. David persisted despite being harassed by the snake constantly. Despite envy, David persisted worshiping and singing to GOD Almighty. We learn that the snake persecutes and gangstalks with the intention of leading far away from the worship of GOD Almighty Psalm 16: 4. The intention of persecution or temptation is to lead far away from GOD Almighty. We learn that the snake envies good individuals and does not want individuals to persist with their sincere faith. David kept worshiping GOD Almighty despite the hatred and envy. 

"And as soon as he came near the camp and saw the calf and the dancing, Moses' anger burned hot, and he threw the tablets out of his hands and broke them at the foot of the mountain. He took the calf that they had made and burned it with fire and ground it to powder..."- Exodus 32: 19-20

Moses was also able to resist temptation when he saw Israel engaging in idol worship while Moses was obtaining the commandments and the instruction. While Moses was obtaining the instruction, the snake was probably tempting Israel with idol worship. The snake probably told Israel that Moses had disappeared or that he had taken too long. Aaron made a statue of a bull and individuals decided to worship a golden calf. 

This describes how the snake attempts to discourage with lies and deceit. The golden calf did not part the Red Sea, nor made fiery hail, nor darkness for three days. GOD Almighty was who took Israel out of Egypt with fiery hail and darkness for three days while the Egyptian magicians and idols could not replicate those signs. Moses kept fidelity to GOD Almighty obtaining the instruction while individuals decided to practice sin and idol worship. Israel had been taken out of Egypt and while receiving the commandments, some individuals decided to practice spiritual infidelity. Thousands of idolators perished from the plague while the righteous faithful persevered with Moses. GOD Almighty did not forsake Moses and the righteous faithful.

Moses reproved the idol worship and sin by destroying the golden calf and instructing the need to keep fidelity to GOD Almighty. Moses did not tolerate idol worship. Moses did not say, "well there is an allowance of sin". No, Moses broke the idol and then decided to issue correction to Israel. He did not partake in idolatry and decided to remove idolatry in haste. Moses decided to keep unchanging fidelity to GOD Almighty and did not care about idol worship. Moses described that the idolators had practiced a grave sin. Moses describes that idol worship needs to be removed to keep in the path of life. This is because idol worship tries to separate from the blessings and favor that exist in the worship of GOD Almighty. Idol worship tries to lead to the telling of lies, stealing, coveting, envying, adultery, and murder. We learn that idolatry leads to even worse sin denounced by the prophets who described how idol worship leads to incest, extortion, bloodthirstyness (mass murder), and unrepentance Ezekiel 22. We learn that the snake does not say from the beginning, "Yeah, idol worship tries to lead to worse sin." Instead it wants individuals to gradually increase the type of sin and vices. This is why idol worship is repudiated and is the source of evil and wickedness. Instead of tolerating idolatry, we should reprove and refute the lies of idol worship. Post-modernism blames Christianity for all of the world's problems, while being the source of all the world's problems. Real and authentic Christianity calls us to reprove negativity, sin, idol worship, and evil. We are instructed to hate the snake and not believe its lies. We are not to tolerate sin and neither partake with it. We have to avoid socialism and socialist idolators 2 Timothy 3: 1-5. There is no benevolent idolatry. Yet there is benevolence in Christianity. That is why we preach repentance of sin and not deception, hate, and envy. We also do not harass idolators (even when they instigate and revile). Also real Christians do not gangstalk while socialists are the ones who gangstalk. Christians do not instigate while socialists instigate. Christians do not harass while socialists harass.

"The next day Moses said to the people, 'You have sinned a great sin.'"- Exodus 32: 30
