“You
shall have no other gods before Me.” Exodus 20:3
How many gods can there be whom men
might want to set above the God of heaven? The Hindus have over one million
different gods, some so minor they are worshipped only in one village or
another. The Muslims have but one god, but he is so strangely different from
the True God that no one who knows the True God could confuse Him with their
god. But these are just things we have created to pose as god.
We also create things that we call
good but treat them like a god. We need money to live, but not to devote our
lives to gaining or keeping. God told us to take a break from labor and to
rest, but we have elevated sports and activities to the level of god. All of
this idol worship is condemned by God and brings eternal judgment. Before idol
worshippers perish they need to be warned of their fate and told of how to be
saved. On Mt. Sinai God established the need for missions.
Dear Father, Help us to worship You
only and to warn the lost of their fate. Amen.
