🩸 Days of Devils – Day 17: Woke Watch Wednesday
📍 Modern Idolatry: The False Gods Among Us
✝️ Pastor Joshua Tapp on Today’s Idols
Welcome to Days of Devils. I’m Pastor Joshua Tapp from True Words Baptist Church in Louisville, Kentucky.
Today, we’re exposing the idols of our time—not golden calves, but the things people worship every day without even realizing it.
📖 Exodus 20:3 – No Other Gods
“Thou shalt have no other gods before me.”
God’s command is clear, yet many have replaced Him with modern idols.
📰 The Idols of Today
- Celebrity Worship: People obsess over celebrities, treating their words and actions as gospel. This misplaced adoration distracts from true worship.
- Social Media Obsession: The constant need for likes and validation online has become a form of idolatry, where self-image trumps spiritual growth.
- Materialism: The pursuit of wealth and possessions often takes precedence over faith and community, leading to spiritual emptiness.
- Political Idolatry: Elevating political figures or ideologies above God’s teachings creates division and detracts from the Gospel.
🧨 The Spiritual Cost
These modern idols lead us away from God’s path, fostering a society centered on self rather than the Savior.
🛡️ Turning Back to True Worship
As believers, we must:
- Identify Our Idols: Reflect on what occupies our hearts and minds.
- Repent and Refocus: Turn away from these distractions and recommit to God’s teachings.
- Lead by Example: Demonstrate true worship through our actions and priorities.
🎙️ Final Thoughts from Pastor Joshua Tapp
I’m Pastor Joshua Tapp, and this has been Days of Devils. Let’s cast down our modern idols and return to the one true God.
