#170 - Joby Martin // What's Stealing Your Affection From God?

Day two of our Ten Commandments deep dive focuses on the second and third commandments, which call us to worship God alone and honor His name through both our words and actions. • The second commandment prohibits making or worshiping idols • Modern idolatry manifests through the lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and pride of life • We worship idols when we treat temporary things as if they are eternal • The third commandment goes beyond avoiding certain expressions • Taking God's name in vain includes professing faith without living it out • God is jealous FOR us, not OF us—like a parent who knows what their child needs • God's jealousy means He knows only He can truly satisfy our deepest needs • We're challenged to identify and remove competing idols in our lives Share this podcast around and leave us a five-star rating and review.
