Bałwochwałstwo w Nowym Testamencie

Abstract

From the times of Abraham God is our Father and only He guides us to salvation. Even in the moments of despair or of our departing away from the road of Truth God is always near us. However, man of the Old and the New Testament often left God and turned to idols. A man of our time does the same. However, God is patient and He does not turn away from His infinite love for His children, but corrects them. Paul steps out against idolatry in a special way. For him idolatry is the cause of moral decline. The problem of idolatry appears also in the Book of Revelation. The idolatry blinds every man and contributes to the loss of the hierarchy of values. There is a continuous choice between true God and idols waiting for our weaknesses.
