—Exodus 20:1-6
by: Jasmine Lynch.
God stated the reason why we are not to make any graven images or idols to bow down to or serve. He said He is a jealous God. We see jealousy as a negative characteristic. It causes conflict in human relationships. What is the difference between God’s jealousy and man’s jealousy? God listed the things He had done for Israel and the reasons they should worship Him and no other. A possessive young man tells the girl that he loves her, why he is jealous of her and does not want her to see anyone else. Is jealousy a good thing from a godly perspective?
