Has America made money and comfort their god?
Two Commands Jesus gave us to fulfill all the Law and the Old Testament…Love God above any person, place or thing and love people as much as you love yourself.
God will not tolerate us having false gods before Him…
2 Kings 17:33
33 They feared the Lord, yet served their own gods—according to the rituals of the nations from among whom they were carried away.
Like the Israelites, the new residents of Samaria fuse worship of Yahweh with foreign practices.
The next passage contains a summary of Yahweh’s covenant with Israel and explains that while the people newly settled in the region were taught about Yahweh, they were not observing the terms of His covenant with Israel which demanded sole worship of Yahweh. Faithlife Bible.
Although a deported Israelite priest was sent back to instruct the Samaritan population in the worship of the Lord, the end result was a mixture of various forms of paganism with the apostate religion of the northern kingdom. In the course of time, both the Samaritans and their religion were rejected by the Jews. NKJ Bible.
