When People Reject God, They CHOOSE to Make Their Own False Gods!

Romans 1:21-25 says, "Because that when they knew God they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to become wise, they became fools. And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man and to birds and fourfooted beasts and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through their lusts of their won hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: who changed the truth of God into a lie and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator who is blessed forever. Amen."

The plan truth is simple. Man knows that there is a God yet chooses not to glorify Him as God. They are simply in contempt with God's own standards of morality in favor of their morality. In short, altruism is at work- choosing which parts of God's law they want to keep (ex. not stealing, not lying) while breaking those they don't want to keep (ex. adultery, idolatry, worship of graven images) because such people are IGNORANT of the righteousness of God (Romans 10:3). Listen, take away one of the ten commandments, split the tenth- the rest will fall down like a domino. James 2:10 says if you can't keep the whole Law, you've broken the whole Law.

Jesus also declared in John 3:20 where He says, "For every one that doeth evil HATETH the Light neither cometh to the light lest his deeds SHOULD BE REPROVED." The problem with man is the foolishness of pride. They of course again, know God exists but they choose not to believe him. They want their OWN standards. That's what Cain did. He left the presence of God for the land of Nod. He wanted his own style. God obviously wanted proper offerings, Cain did not. There is no reason for God to accept such disobedience. God wants us to FOLLOW what He says and salvation's way must be ACCORDING to His rules. God wants people to stop striving for themselves, repent of their sins, come to Jesus and yet many people spit at that command.

Such a person, for example, is the atheist. While they consider God to be a delusion or a fairy tale YET I frequently hear them complain about how unjust God is. Think of Stalin who an atheist shook his fist towards Heaven or to Communist leader Mao Zedong who though he claimed he didn't believe God exists, HATED THE BIBLE (John 3:20) or Julian the Apostate who raised his dagger cursing the God he wanted to believe did not exist at all. So they rejected God and then they end up SEEKING their own god. So what happens? Atheism ends up with the most absurd of things like embracing Darwin's theory of evolution to the point they lie Darwin was an atheist when he wasn't. They end up worshiping science instead of the one who created science, then their study of science gets defiled by such nonsense like the Big Bang theory or an atheist's version of evolution. Then to "make evidence" talk about the many single skulls, tooths, etc. used to justify evolution when one fossil was actually a tooth of a pig to prove "prehistoric man".

What is so amazing is that before Darwinism began, apparently Darwin already had a lot ready to embrace his doctrine as if it were "science". I would suggest Christian biology teachers teach their class about what evolution is and why it is not science than to avoid the subject altogether for better understanding. The Egyptians believed they came from monkeys, in fact, the monkey has become an important animal to paganism aside from the serpents or the dragons which represent the Devil. Then again, any animal that gets worshiped ends up becoming a sign of the Devil. Many also believed in gradual changes to. Darwin's theory was in fact accepted by also the members of false religion too. People were worshiping animals instead of the one who created the animals as well.

The worship of idols is linked to it. The religions of the world revolve around animals and graven images after the likeness of man which the Bible condemns in the SECOND COMMANDMENT (Exodus 20:4-5, if you don't, believe me, I triple dare you to read it from the Good News Bible too!). Bowing down to these graven images or even "mere veneration" (which in itself is ALREADY WORSHIP) has caused many delusions. I've been to Taoist temples or Buddhist temples before I was saved, I would even take extra caution not to splatter at those graven images that NEED to be wiped because they cannot clean themselves, replacing the perfect will of God with wooden kidney shaped blocks. Then such people say, "We are not worshiping the image but the one portrayed by the image." However God says in Isaiah 42:8 saying, I Am the LORD that is My Name and My glory will I not give to another NEITHER MY PRAISE TO GRAVEN IMAGES."

Roman Catholicism has cut the second and split the tenth, you don't see the command to not to make graven images posted in the ten commandments of a Catholic catechism yet there's this degenerate guy on Youtube who now is covering that fact up with a lie while he wants to destroy the testimonies of good converts to hide the truth. What happens is that they cut off the second, even if they do not directly teach their members to steal, murder or commit adultery a lot of their most devoted followers end up being religious hypocrites than purely religious. Pure religion keeps itself unblemished, not so with manmade religion and religiousness to it- it just keeps people blind and wondering. A religious Roman Catholic who does not have a life of criminal activities is left confused to why he or she is surrounded by such people then he is also stuck in another sinful way of life- SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS. Any image portraying Jesus is an abomination because Jesus Christ is God, He will NEVER share His glory with the portrayals of Him.
