“Idols” in the survey was taken to only mean “celebrity idols”
That was a surprise to me! What about “idols” that we make in our lives as being of the greatest importance to us personally, and as a society? Things like money and wealth. Like sex and leisure. Like sport and entertainment. The list would be enormous!
From the answers that were given by those in the market, we see that entertainers were the tops, followed by those who had overcome or done something very special.
A celebrity idol who can change me forever?
Seeing the answers of others, I thought, “These celebrities are themselves going to fail, and to fall out of that celebrity status. Who will last and give me meaning and positive change all the way through to the end?”
Only Jesus…
He wasn’t flawed then, when performing miracle after supernatural miracle. Nor when he purposely gave his life on the torturing cross, taking our shame and punishment in our place for our rejecting God and his laws. Especially when he came back to life as he had promised, he certainly wasn’t in any way flawed.
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
John 3:16 (NIV) (http://www.laridian.com)
“I voted for Jesus as my enduring idol, giving me meaning now and ongoing.
