“For they also built them high places, and images, and groves, on every high hill, and under every green tree. And there were also sodomites in the land: and they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.”
1 Kings 14:23-24 KJV
They set new records in sin, surpassing anything their ancestors had done. They built Asherah sex-and-religion shrines and set up sacred stones all over the place..worse, they had male sacred prostitutes, polluting the land outrageously. There are consequences of rebellion against God Who has set boundaries for the human race. This is reflected in the two greatest commandments which a seeker of the truth quoted to Jesus saying, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and ‘your neighbor as yourself.’ Jesus said to him, “You have answered rightly; do this and you will live.” The Lord Jesus Christ is the Living God Who cannot be worshipped in lifeless idols. The LORD God has made the human race in His image and likeness, to be fruitful and multiply as a man and a woman. Humans have no authority to change these boundaries. There are consequences to any rebellion against God Who is eternal and forever. Amen!
