FAMILY THEME: IDOLATRY

MISDIRECTED WORSHIP

1 Kings 12:25-33; 13:33 - 14:20

King Jeroboam leads the people into idolatry.

1.  Selfishness is at the Heart of Idolatry

     (1 Kings 12:25-33)

     Jeroboam's sole concern was protecting his

     position of power.

 
2.  Refusing to Repent Makes Things Worse

     (1 Kings 13:33-34)

     Jeroboam's refusal to repent caused more

     (and ultimate) destruction for his house.

 
3.  Idolotry Can Have Far-Reaching Effects

     (1 Kings 14:1-20)

     As with all sin, the consequences of idolatry

     often affect many.
