Idols & Images

 

EXODUS 20:4-5

  Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth:

 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God [am] a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth [generation] of them that hate me;

 

The above scripture is the second commandment! Which is the second most ignored commandment today, the first being commandment number four Remember the Sabbath Day, the 7th day of the week, and it’s not Sunday! Deuteronomy 4:13-20.

 

It does not take a rocket scientist to see that God is clearly talking about images, statues of males or females, animals of any kind, the sun, moon, or stars. Have you noticed in religion, that there are symbols of stars, moons, and suns all over the place? They want us to believe that these images are “ok”, just because religion does it.

 

An image is a representative figure, a resemblance of a figure. An idol is something worshipped. Within the Holy Scriptures, and in the commandment, God specifically uses the word “image.” In Leviticus 26:1 The scriptures tells us to avoid any image or idol it even goes as far as saying “Stone in your land.” Wow!

 

We live in a country that is secular and It tells you it is made up of Christians. What is deceiving about this lie is as follows:

 

  • People say they love God, the Creator, and still wear idols on their necks, bodies and extremities. These idols are even in the homes.
  • Many believe this is a Christian nation but it is not. Idols and images rule this land from New York to Washington.
  • Many profess to be Christians but they are not living Godly.
  • If you look closely, you will see a few examples of Holiness in this land. Women wearing dresses. Men covering their legs, (not wearing shorts), Women and girls who are not wearing makeup like Jezebel did in her day. Holy women do not wear earrings, chains and rings on their temples (their bodies). The Churches are not following the teachings of the scriptures as God gave us.
  • Women who have been born again do not cut their hair!
  • People have always been religious, but not obedient. We see that others live a certain way and we somehow think that God approves of that way of life. I proclaim, Not so! They will be judged, just as you will be judged, according to what is written in the books!
  • It is only the fear of God and the Love of God that will compel you to obey Him in Spirit and in Truth.

 

Do a study on the word “obelisks” You will be surprised that this symbol is everywhere! It is the symbol of Satan! It is on almost every church, it is in our capital and it is also in ever satanic lodge and building in America. It’s even at the Vatican in front of St. Peter’s basilica. You can find these symbols all over this country as they state “We are servants of Satan!”

 

If you see any Church with this object sticking up on top of it, or on any roof “DO NOT GO INTO THAT BUILDING!” Satan knows how to smile and say praise the Lord too.

 

So what else are we the Church to be warned about? Well it’s difficult attempting to tell the Truth to anyone these days. Have you noticed people put their opinion or their beliefs above the WORD OF GOD! They say “I don’t believe like that,” or “I don’t believe that way!” As if they are the deciding factor when it comes to TRUTH! I say, study your Bibles and do it as if your life depends on it! Because your life does depend on it. You can only worship God in Spirit and in “TRUTH.”

 

Get rid of all your Dolls, pictures of frogs, owls, figurines.  A Book that I would recommend for you to read is “The Two Babylons,” by Alexandria Hyssop. Oh! You better obtain one fast because soon you will not be able to lay your hands on the Bible or books like these. This book is a good start, but the Scriptures are the authority! Go and see what God has to say about it.

 

Last statement! Dolls, idols, images are also door ways for demons to come thru. Legal ground has been given to demons through these objects. You have to take away the grounds that they have in Jesus’ name. Look up the names and see the pictures of some of the things I have mentioned. Find out the TRUTH for yourself.

 

JOHN 14:6

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
