Do idols belong in the temple of God? We are the temple of the living God, as God himself says, "I will live with these people and walk among them. I will be their God, and they will be my people."

Children, you must stay away from idols. - 1 John 5:21 CEV
Jesus answered: You will certainly want to tell me this saying, "Doctor, first make yourself well." You will tell me to do the same things here in my own hometown that you heard I did in Capernaum.

Who were those people that heard God's voice and rebelled? Weren't they the same ones that came out of Egypt with Moses? Who were the people that made God angry for forty years? Weren't they the ones that sinned and died in the desert? - Hebrews 3:16-17 CEV
But most of them did not please God. So they died, and their bodies were scattered all over the desert. What happened to them is a warning to keep us from wanting to do the same evil things. - 1 Corinthians 10:5-6 CEV
Don't forget what happened to those people that the Lord rescued from Egypt. Some of them did not have faith, and he later destroyed them. - Jude 1:5 CEV
