When we ignore an attribute of God that makes us uneasy or we neglect a passage of Scripture that challenges our thoughts about God, we’re committing idolatry. Today, R.C. Sproul puts us on guard against unbiblical distortions.

Transcript

If you strip God of His attributes in your thinking, in your doctrine, in your theology, you are committing idolatry. Because the God you are worshiping is not God. If your God is not sovereign, your God isn’t God. If your God isn’t holy, your God isn’t God. You have an idol. Now, I’m speaking to Christians. Your natural disposition as a fallen human being is to be an idol factory. If we don’t do it in a crude way, we’ll do it in a refined way by stripping God of those things we don’t like about God and replacing the biblical God with a distortion.
