He has been telling me that people are idolatrous, and know it not; that his house has erected idols they are ignorant of– and those ‘idols’ are standing between, and causing grief in– his relationships with his children.
I note that these definitions all have one thing in common– they are an ‘image of–’ they are NOT the real deal, a SUBSTITUTE– not the real McCoy; they are FALSE VISUALS, or FALSE PICTURES, VAIN and VAPID, EMPTY…that cause God holy GRIEF and JEALOUSY
[as noted in the scripture verses in use as examples].
He is REPLACED with, or by→ SOME-THING that is NOT HIM– but looks, or sounds or EQUATES ITSELF ‘with him’ or LIKE HIM– and nothing irritates him more than A FALSE IMAGE OF WHO HE IS, or ANOTHER– purporting to be him [false holy spirit], and FILLING IN FOR HIM– and one that his children– ENTERTAIN.
[like satan– he wants to be ‘like’ the Most High, and he will– if you let him in, and cannot discern– only he will corrupt→ that’s what he does].
I personally think of Christmas here; it has an ‘association’ tacked on to/of his birth, but in truth it was wrought out of ‘other gods,’ and their worship and idolatry.
{Mithra, multiple gods worship from Romans, Nimrod’s birthday [which celebrates climate and winter solstice], Krampus [santa/satan], H1544– is a LOG, you should look up the reason for ‘the yule log–’ and much more…
’if’ you dig in and research, God is faithful to tell you the truth.}
Messiah’s birth {according to Jewish festival dates}– doesn’t even coincide with the date they purport in December– and yet, it’s so ingrained in people {within their hearts}, that they will ATTACK [with foul spirits manifesting]– if you even touch the topic of that idol…even IF– the Holy Spirit tells of his disdain and grief over this pagan celebration, that they added Him to.
Don’t take my word for it→ GO TO GOD HOLY and seek his answer; he’ll likely tell you to ‘DO YOUR HOMEWORK,’ as he instructed me.
Then, and only then, can you and he– decipher/discern what his truth is about it; for if we do not KNOW THE TRUTH– how can he set us free from lies and spiritual adultery {idols, and their worship in our lives}?]
