Strongholds
“Idolatry”
Exodus 32:1-35 (CSB)
Key Truth: “Eliminating obstacles to faith clears a pathway to live The Jesus Way.”
- Idol - "An image of a deity other than God; any person or thing regarded with blind admiration, adoration, or devotion; a mere image or semblance of something, visible but without substance.”
Main Question: How do we so easily give up on the God we know and love and pursue other, inferior things?
1. We forget the Lord. (Exodus 32:1a)
2. We create other alternatives. (Exodus 32:1b-6)
3. We are held accountable by God. (Exodus 32:7-35)
After the Message: Read Exodus 20:1-21. What commands did God set up for His people? How can these commands help you to eliminate the stronghold of idolatry and lead you to live The Jesus Way?
