v7
Then said I unto them, Cast ye away every man the abominations of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I [am] the LORD your God.
Surfing the web and watching videos and things like that can be idols. They're generally OK things, but not if we idolize them, defile ourselves with them, or watch things that are abominations.
We should cast our idols away.
"Abominations of his eyes"... what a strange phrase. For me, it's easy to idolize knowledge, and get distracted with "researching" things that are not spiritually important.
ReplyDeleteIf I am willing to expose myself to temptation purely for the sake of something, then that "something" may hold too much priority. And in fact, there's a good chance it has become an idol. Unless it's something I know the Lord wants me involved with, I should probably back off of it.
