Text for discussion: Deuteronomy 4.
Moses warns Israel not to be drawn away to following other gods, nor any creatures on the earth, nor the stars or celestial objects. False worship goes back to Adam and Eve; it is rooted in the ego of Adam and Eve (the first version of humanism) or in a following after the old evil foe (the serpent).
All the roads of false worship lead back there-Moses commends us to follow the true God; in Him is all that is good, life, and salvation!
