Do we submit to alters or God? I need clarity

 

[Articles]

In the Bible, God's Word is clear that our submission and worship are to be directed to Him alone. The first of the Ten Commandments states, "You shall have no other gods before me" (Exodus 20:3, WEB). This includes not submitting to or worshiping altars, which are merely objects often used in various religions and even in some Christian traditions. However, altars themselves are not to be worshipped.

God is a jealous God and He desires that our worship is solely directed to Him. As it is written, "For you shall worship no other god: for Yahweh, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God" (Exodus 34:14, WEB).

When we pray, we are to pray in the name of Jesus Christ, as He is the one mediator between God and men. "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. Also, there is no other name by which we can be saved. "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12 WEB)

Let us pray together for clarity and guidance:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your guidance and clarity. Help ### understand that You alone are worthy of our worship and submission. Guide them to worship You in spirit and in truth, as You desire. Protect them from any form of idolatry or misdirected worship. Draw them closer to You, and give them a deeper understanding of Your Word.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

###, be encouraged to study the Bible more, as it is the ultimate authority for our faith and practice. If you're asking about praying to altars, we strongly encourage you to examine this thought against God’s Word and reject it if it does not align. Always remember that our devotion and prayers should be directed to God through Jesus Christ. If you have not already, consider accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.

Do we submit to alters or God? I need clarity

We submit ourselves to God, the Father, the living son Jesus Christ and the living spirit of God, the Holy Spirit. We raise Altars for the Kingdom of God. (Job 22:21-25: "Submit to God, and you will have peace; then things will go well for you") The Altar is the place where we encounter worship meet and connect with God. We submit ourselves to God, we submit ourselves to the things God has appointed and established such as his Leaders. Yet, we be cautious and aware of False Prophets, False Men and Women of God and the things not of God. By submitting, we resist evil influences and yeild ourselves to the power or authority of God. (Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves)

James 4:7: "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you"
Hebrews 13:17: Obey and submit to leaders who are watching over our souls
1 Peter 2:13–14: Submit to every authority that God has established, including kings and governors
Ephesians 5:22: Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord

Father, we pray you guide and grant discernment to your son regarding the curious thoughts and the questions he has in which he seeks an answer and confirmation. We pray you give unto him signs and wonders.

In Jesus name, Amen
