Idolatry (Part 4c)- Fearing Upsetting People more than God

God over Everything

Reevaluating Christian Niceness: Prioritizing Holiness Over Pleasing Others
Many people mistake a good Christian as someone who avoids conflict and prioritizes others' feelings. This video challenges that notion by examining Yeshua's (Jesus) radical example of prioritizing God's kingdom and truth over pleasing people. It delves into scriptural passages that reveal Yeshua as often confrontational and uncompromising, urging Christians to avoid idolizing relationships, including those with their spouses. The lesson emphasizes the importance of maintaining undivided devotion to God, even if it means upsetting loved ones. This is part of a series on idolatry, with a focus on the tendency to prioritize human relationships over divine allegiance.
