By worshiping mere inanimate objects, idolaters dishonor God and man, who is made in God’s image. Idolatry needs to be unmasked for the evil it truly is.
Today’s reading:
My selection:
Being then God’s offspring, we ought not to think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man. The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent, because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead.” Acts 17:29-31
