Spiritual Idolatry
Isaiah 2:6-9
Therefore you have forsaken your people the house of Jacob, because they be replenished from the east…


Men will build churches; men must have religious rites and ceremonies; and what can suit the worldly man better than an idol that takes no notice of him, a wooden deity that never troubles him with its disciplinary obligations.

(J. Parker, D. D.)
