WHO IS YOUR IDOL?

God hates idols. Whoever loves an idol loves a lie, something that is not a god nor deserves worship.
Our idols may be false gods or images but they can also be money, fame, our arrogance ... Everything that receives our worship and draws us away from God is an idol.
We should only worship God. No idol can save us. All idols fail but God never fails. He has all power and loves us.

Idols in the Bible

"Do not turn to idols or make metal gods to you. I am the Lord, your God.
Leviticus 19: 4

"I am the Lord: this is my name!
I will not give my glory to another.
Nor to pictures my praise.
Isaiah 42: 8

"Thou shalt have no other gods besides me." Thou shalt not make for thee any idol, no image of anything in heaven, on earth, or in waters under the earth.
Exodus 20: 3-4

So what do I mean? Is the sacrifice offered to an idol anything? Or is the idol something? No! I mean that what the heathen sacrifices is offered to the demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with the demons.
1 Corinthians 10: 19-20

Therefore, my beloved brethren, flee from idolatry.
1 Corinthians 10:14

Now the works of the flesh are manifest: sexual immorality, impurity, and debauchery; Idolatry and witchcraft; Hatred, discord, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissensions, factions and envy; Drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before: Those who practice these things will not inherit the Kingdom of God.

So let all that pertains to your earthly nature die: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desires, and greed, which is idolatry.

Because rebellion
It is like the sin of witchcraft;
Arrogance, as the evil of idolatry.
Just as you rejected
The word of the Lord,
He rejected him as king. "
1 Samuel 15:23

Their idols, silver and gold,
Are made by human hands. They have a mouth, but they can not speak;
Eyes, but can not see; They have ears, but they can not hear;
Nose, but can not smell; They have hands, but they can not touch;
Feet, but they can not walk;
And make no sound with the throat. Become like them those who make them
And all that trust in them.

In useless idols

Of those who run after other gods.

And my lips will not mention
Their names.

Some of the authorities of Israel came and sat before me. Then the Lord said to me, "Son of man, these men have erected idols in their hearts and put ungodly stumbling blocks in front of you. Shall I let them consult me?" Say to them, "This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Israel shall lift up idols in his heart and put a stumbling stumbling in his face, and afterward he shall consult a prophet, and I the LORD will answer him after his idolatry: this will I do to win back the heart of the nation of Israel; He forsook them in exchange for their idols. "Therefore say to the nation of Israel, Thus saith the Sovereign LORD: Repent! Turn away from your idols and renounce all detestable practices! "When any Israelite or any alien residing in Israel separates from me, erects idols in his heart and puts a wicked stumble in front of him and then goes to a prophet to consult me, I, the Lord, myself, will respond to him I will turn my face against that man, and make him an example and an object of derision: I will cut him off from among my people: and ye shall know that I am the Lord. "And if the prophet is deceived, and I, the Lord, will have deceived that prophet and will stretch out my arm against him, and will destroy him, taking him out of the midst of Israel my people.
