And the verse appears to be supporting idolatry does it not?

But the existence of hell contradicts your claim.

You clearly don't know what Idolatry is. In the spirit of being lazy, you can go look it up for yourself and you just might learn something useful as you page through your dictionary. 😏

So you see, when somebody else does it, you get upset and leave. Do you get the point yet?

Yes, but how many times does that happen for some? If you want
to give someone something to discuss at least show it to them.

I have agreed that in future i will show you people what i find good or bad but it still doesn't stop me thinking that you would get much more enjoyment out of looking it up and savouring it more.... you might glance at something else which would light you up...i have said this all before to T. head... read some past posts of ours and you will see.

this verse doesn't disprove hell what if one never returned to god. In judiasm(that verse is from the old testemant) one can only go to hell if they have never sincerely attoned for their sins. Also the defiinition of idolatry is not set in stone

I think it is marvellous in the fact that no matter how many times you stray from God he will always be there for you....

So if God is "Always there for you" then what are you doing in Hell?

And can you return to God after you get to Hell or does "always" have a time limit?

As for your comment on idolatry, if you don't have an answer then keep quiet. Trying to sound clever without actually answering the question gets you nowhere.

I hope not to be in hell and i think no to the answer about returning to God once in Hell...it is too late then...Always has no time limit.

Idolatry is the worship of a created object either made by human hands or by God.

So when i said i thought it a sin i was referring to the human hands...anything created by God can be appreciated.

I never claim to be clever T.Head i just say it how i feel it... you try it!

That contradicts your earlier claims.

So what does the verse mean when it says: you have turned aside from My statutes and have not kept them
Surely it is referring to idols?
