Worship God Only

Elvis is in the papers, I believe it is the 40th anniversary of his death. I read an article about a young woman in college at the time of Elvis's death. She went to her dorm and found a lot of young woman gathered around a phone and crying. She wondered what happened. One young woman said the King is dead. She didn't get it at first and chuckled. She went to her room and closed the door, hid for a while. This woman stated that some 12 years later at a reunion she saw a group of the same girls together and they looked at her the same way they had the day of Elvis's death. They had not forgotten. Elvis is not someone to worship. I know he was popular and a good singer. I like some of his songs. I think it is sometimes easy to hero worship, as those girls perhaps worshipped the king of Rock and Roll.  God is sovereign, he wants our worship. God alone gives life. I remember the day Elvis died. I guess I was somewhat of a religious nut in those days. I remember an old man telling me I suppose you have put him (Elvis) in hell. I have no idea of Elvis's spiritual condition that day or any other day. Only God knew then and knows today. 
Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind. Colossians 2:18 We are not to even worship angels. Then I fell down at his feet to worship him, but he said, "No, don't worship me. I am a servant of God, just like you and your brothers and sisters who testify about their faith in Jesus. Worship only God. For the essence of prophecy is to give a clear witness for Jesus." Revelation 19:10  I, John, am the one who heard and saw all these things. And when I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me. But he said, “No, don’t worship me. I am a servant of God, just like you and your brothers the prophets, as well as all who obey what is written in this book. Worship only God!”  Revelation 22:8-9 John the revelator fell down to worship an angel that had revealed things to him and he was warned twice, not to do that . Do not worship angels. I am sure if Angels are not worthy of worship, neither is Elvis. Sometimes when I hear people talk about angels, I get the feeling they almost want to worship them. I remember even books or TV shows about angels, it almost seems as if we worship them. We are told not to worship them. Sometimes I suppose we put good men on a pedestal, and they are not worthy of worship. Some even a good as some of us are and depending on if we are conservative or liberal may think a lot of either Trump or Obama, Clinton or Bush or even Reagan. IT is ok to honor good men, but do not worship them. We can find many things in this life to take the place of God, but God is still sovereign and has each of our days numbered. It is God we need to worship and as the first commandment tells us: " You shall have no other gods before Me."   Sometimes I think some people do worship Elvis, We should not but worship God only.  God bless, LVZ.
