OBJECT OF WORSHIP

OBJECT OF WORSHIP

Do  not  let  anyone  who delights  in  false  humility  and the  worship  of  angels  disqualify  you.  Such  a  person also  goes  into  great  detail  about  what  they  have seen;  they  are  puffed  up  with  idle  notions  by  their unspiritual  mind. Colossians 2:18

Angels  have  become  popular  in  certain  sections of  our  culture.  We can even find  models  of  angels  for sale in different shops. People  apparently  buy  an  angel  for  their homes,  their  cars,  or  their  bookshelves.

The Bible makes it clear that there is one mediator between God and man and it’s *Christ* Himself. The worship of angels was one of the false doctrines being  taught  in  the  church  at  Colosse.  We  can  be  encouraged,  and even  comforted  that  angels  are  involved  in  life.  *The  name  angel means ‘messenger’,  but  they  are  carriers  of  messages  not  the  origin of  the  message.*

The constant warnings against idolatry in  Scripture, is  the  warning  against  elevating  anything  to  a  place  it  was  never  to be given. One thing we know angels say is this: ‘Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!’ (Revelation 5:11-12).  

 *We are never to worship angels not to talk of human beings. Let’s not elevate them, let’s join them to worship the king of Kings and Lord of Lords.*

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, Please help me keep my focus on You. You are the object of my worship and forever you will remain, in Jesus name.....Amen
