    This message opens our eyes to the tragic consequences of idolatry, showing idolatry in 3-D, through the three terms Dispossession, Desolation, and Death.

    I shared with you a few weeks ago that the Lord has impressed me to preach more on the topic of idolatry.

    Bowing To The Great Idol Of Self

     | 5,862 views

    The OT has a lot of interesting stories about idolatry, but is that really just a problem of the past? This sermon addresses the very real problem that our culture has in worshiping our own desires above all else.

    To the reader: What inspired this sermon was a quote I read in R.C. Ortlund’s book, When God Comes To Church, p. 194. "Self is the great idol standing at the center of our conceptual world, to which all bow low. We even have a duty-to-self ethic, as if self-denial were harmful, immoral, and ...read more
