   The Sacrifices   

...but the sacrifices of pagans are offered to demons.

You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too.

1 Corinthians 10:21

Commentary: 

   Idolatry involves the worship of demons (Deuteronomy 32:17), and is associated with greed or covetousness. Demonic powers stand behind love for worldly possessions, honor or position.

   The error of some at Corinth was failing to distinguish between that which is holy and that which is defiled, between that which is of Christ and that which is of the devil. They did not understand God's holy jealousy (Exodus 20:5) and the seriousness of compromising with the world. 

   Commentary on Revelation 9:20: Even God's judgment doesn't bring people to repentance. The last days will involve the worship of demons, spiritism, the occult, violence and murder, magic arts (drugs, witchcraft), sexual immorality, lust and pornography. 

It seems we are halfway there already,

even in our country founded on freedom

to worship our Creator.
