JOSIAH: THERE IS MORE TO IDOLATRY THAN IDOLS
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Josiah
a) We look at Judah's king Josiah, third king after Hezekiah, and like him a godly man.
2. There Is More To Idolatry Than Idols
a) Idolatry and the evil practices of paganism include much more than simply bowing down to idols. Among the abominations that Josiah purged these: " witchcraft and divination, mediums and spiritists, teraphim and idols" (2 Kings 21:6; 23:24).
b) Those things are common practice today, and popularized by the entertainment industry. Forms of divination (for insight into the past, present, and especially the future) are astrology, spiritism, channeling, psychic meditation, various omens, tarot cards, palmistry, numerology, crystal balls, ouija boards, and such like. Keep away from all such things!
