SAMARITAN IDOL

MICAH 1:2-7 (CEV)
2 CORINTHIANS 6:16-18 (KJV)


"Listen, all of you! Earth and everything on it, pay close attention.

The LORD God accuses you from his holy temple. And he will come down to crush underfoot every pagan altar.

Mountains will melt beneath his feet like wax beside a fire. Valleys will vanish like water rushing down a ravine.

This will happen because of the terrible sins of Israel, the descendants of Jacob.

Samaria has led Israel to sin, and pagan altars at Jerusalem have made Judah sin.

So the LORD will leave Samaria in ruins--merely an empty field where vineyards are planted. He will scatter its stones and destroy its foundations.

Samaria's idols will be smashed, and the wages of temple prostitutes will be destroyed by fire. Silver and gold from those idols will then be used by foreigners as payment for prostitutes."

"And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.


Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.

And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty."
