Images…

I don’t have to go far to find images of worship…things we put our trust in…things we worship…rather than the true God…the God to whom the world at some point in time will all bow down…

His Word says it well…

Thank YOU….

 “You shall not make for yourself a carved 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.

Exod.20.4

 You shall not make gods of silver to be with me, nor shall you make for yourselves gods of gold.

Exod.20.23

 beware lest you act corruptly by making a carved image for yourselves, in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female, the likeness of any animal that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged bird that flies in the air, the likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water under the earth. And beware lest you raise your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, you be drawn away and bow down to them and serve them, things that the Lord your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven.

Deut.4.16-19

 All worshipers of images are put to shame,who make their boast in worthless idols;worship him, all you gods!

Ps.97.7

  They made a calf in Horab and worshiped a metal image. They exchanged the glory of Godfor the image of an ox that eats grass.

Ps.106.19-20

 Behold, they are all a delusion;their works are nothing;their metal images are empty wind.

Isa.41

 “What profit is an idol when its maker has shaped it,a metal image, a teacher of lies?For its maker trusts in his own creationwhen he makes speechless idols! 

Woe to him who says to a wooden thing, Awake;to a silent stone, Arise!Can this teach?Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver,and there is no breath at all in it. 

But the Lord is in his holy temple;let all the earth keep silence before him.”

Hab.2.18-20

 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.

Rom.1.23

 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Phil.2.10-11

 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. 

But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed.

2Pet.3.9-10

We will bow down…
