The Lord says that people do whatever they think is right, but do not take into consideration what He desires, plans, or thinks. Judges 17-21 speaks about people who did whatever they thought was right, but did not take God’s opinions into account. Micah was an Israelite who wanted to worship God, thus, made statues out of silver for worship. However, the Lord detests statues that are created as means for worship (Lev. 26:1).

Don’t! Imagine that in Satan’s attempt to bargain with you, you call […]

But, Satan tempted Jesus with an offer that seemed grand and glorious. Satan offered Jesus riches and power if He would worship him. He placed all the kingdoms of the world on silver platter for Jesus to take. Did Jesus have the characteristics and skills to rule the kingdoms of the world. Of course He did!
