We close the week with a very important question, one that we never want to assume, and one

that we never want to ignore.

It comes to us from a new podcast listener named Kayla.

Pesor John is God, the same God in all religions, but in different forms.

I've heard this said before, but what does the Bible say?

Let me make sure that I understand the question.

I take Kayla to be asking, if we sincerely worship the God of any religion, are we worshiping

the one true God?

That's my rephrasing of the question.

Or we can ask it like this, does the Bible teach that the gods of other religions besides

Christianity are real supernatural beings, distinct from and in opposition to the one true

God and Father of our Lord Jesus.

So those are the two ways I would rephrase the question.

And the answer to the second one is yes, the Bible teaches that the gods of other religions

are not mere names.

They're not mere myths, but are, in fact, supernatural beings who love to be worshipped

and want to deceive the world and receive a claim and take the place of the true God.

And the answer to the first question is therefore no.

If you sincerely worship these gods of other religions, you're not worshipping the one true

God revealed in Jesus Christ.

So that's my answer.

Now here's some Bible verses to show you where I get that answer.
