The human heart is idolatrous and will worship anything it can possess.1
——
We have surrendered evil things, bad things, but we hold on to the good things and these we are prone to worship.2
——
We are allowing too many rivals of God. We actually have too many gods. We have too many irons in the fire. We have too much theology that we don’t understand. We have too much churchly institutionalism. We have too much religion. Actually, I guess we just have too much of too much!3
——
God is not in our beings by Himself! He cannot do His will in us and through us because we refuse to put away the rivals. When Jesus Christ has cleansed everything from the temple and dwells there alone, He will work!4
——
If you spend time examining your Christian brother, you will find him lacking in some things. Don’t forget that all idols have feet of clay.5
