Chapter 10: The Obstacle of Idolatry
1. Why does God create a nagging sense of dissatisfaction in every person?
So that we will look for satisfaction - which will lead us to Him, because He is the only one who can truly satisfy.
2. Why does the Bible call seeking satisfaction in anything but God the sin of idolatry?
Because God put a hole in each of us, so that He could fill it, so trying to put anything else in that hole is wrong.
3. What forms have idols taken in your personal experience?
In my life, idols have taken many forms, relationships, activities, work, people, etc.
