Idol Minds – Exodus chapter 20, verses 4 to 6
Kids’ Spot – The 2nd Rule
Idol Minds
4 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 5 You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.

- Images and idolatry are rampant today, and have been all through the ages. Idols have nothing to say.
- They degrade God’s Person. Only one image of God, and that is Jesus, Colossians 1:15
- Images of God can only divert our worship of God.
