An Exposé of Idolatry, Part 6

A large emphasis in Scripture when it comes to Christian service is being undefiled (ceremonially acceptable to God) and therefore useful to the Master. This is why God acted so severely with His people in 586 BC. It was not out of rashness or an uncontrolled temper. Rather it was to protect His people from themselves lest they in their sinning be disqualified from the privilege of service in God’s Kingdom!
