Definition Of What An IDOL Is by omololuigb: 10:04am On May 13, 2016
What is an Idol? I would like to clear your mind very well and am talking to everybody including the Catholics and the non Catholics no segregation. Anything you love more than God is an Idol . that your boy friend that is controlling you that is making you not serve God and you think is love or respect is an Idol. That your pastor or priest in the church who you believe so much that you do what ever he ask you to do even when is against the scripture is an Idol. You can't do without stealing is an Idol, ANYTHING YOU LOVE MORE THAN GOD MY BROTHER MY SISTER IS AN IDOL. remove that speck from your eyes you that think you serve God more than the other before removing the one from another. It pains me when Christians fight themselves, over nothing. And this is the reason why the devil is invading our camp on daily basses cos there is no unity among us. Am a pentecostal but I must tell you the truth, we are not doing the right thing. All the time our preaching is more fighting our fellow Christians rather than us preaching unity which is Christ. This days you hardly see a pentecostal preacher agree to go on a mission work to a village cos he feel that God has called him to be a preacher in the city and not in the village. Yet the same Catholics you condem their way of worship will go there irrespective of the place, will bring God to that community and even have a bishop there. How many pentecostal bishop will agree to do that? Let's stop all this fight against the Catholics and their ways of worship and fight against ourselves first and our greedy and selfish attitude towards the things of God. That the statue is crying blood, tears or whatever, what made you think that it can not happen and that God can't be behind it? Why is it that we pentecostal just believe that is only in pentecostal you can fine a true miracle and you can't find it else where? I want to announce to you that God is everywhere even that time when you are doing the wrong thing. Let us stop magnifying the devil by associating the miracle of God with the hand work of the devil. We are all running a race, and focus is needed in this race. Looking unto Jesus the author and the finisher of our faith. You can't mock God for he cannot be mocked, whatever a man sows he will reap. Let's stop all the fighting and quarreling against ourselves as Christian and come together to fight the good fight of faith, love and unity which the Lord has called us for. For judgment awaits each and every one of us individually an not collectively. May God help the Christians of today to know what we are called to fight for and not against one another. Amen. See the book of Eph6. GOD bless us all.

Something or someone you look up to is an idol,not something you love more than an imaginary god.
