Scripture
What is idolatry?
Idolatry is giving worship, devotion, or ultimate allegiance to something created instead of to the creator.
Deuteronomy warns against bowing down to images, animals, the sun, moon, stars, or anything else God has made.
“Beware lest you… bow down to them and serve them. (Deut. 4:19)
The issue is not only statues or carved images. Anything that takes God’s rightful place in our hearts can become an idol.
Worship the creator — not the creation. ✝️
