Christian celebrities

The glorification of the creature instead of the Creator is a wickedness in the sight of God. Christian celebrities attract the attention to themselves and become rich and famous from the gospel of Jesus Christ. They are adored and followed instead of Jesus, the Lord of lords and King of kings.

Christians adore these celebrities. They are preachers, prophets, healers, singers, worship teams, skit performers, dancers, movie stars and rock stars. They appeal to the flesh, their own and that of their followers. As soon as man is exalted God is forgotten.

They use technology to create an atmosphere of sanctity but it only glorifies and satisfies the flesh. The followers are always in awe of the performer but do not fall down and worship the real God and Master Jesus Christ. Instead of repentance and holiness the performances result in the satisfaction of the flesh. People want to feel good, enjoy the performance. They love their pleasures and their lusts.

God will judge both idols and idolaters, both will go down into the pit. There is no partiality with God, He knows the intention of the heart of man, He judges righteously. All the glory goes to Jesus, He is a jealous God and will not share His glory with man.
