Esteem God Alone: The First Commandment - Exodus 20:3
While few of us have wooden idols in our home that we bow before, we all have idols in our hearts that take our hearts and minds captive. It is no accident that the first command God gave to Israel 3500 years ago is the most foundational of all: we are to have no other god.
