YAHWEH Believers Are Modern BAAL Worshippers
Baal worship deceived Israel into thinking they were doing right and worshipping the Lord through out the Old Testament.
1 Kings 18:21 KJV And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.
The people could not give Elijah a answer because to them it was all just a "spiritual" thing. It is not any different today as many are deceived into following a false God named YAHWEH instead of following Jesus Christ the Lord. And they believe they are following God in this lie of Yahweh the false god.
Yahweh was found in the mountains not in the Temple of God.
Amos 6:1 KJV Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!
To others that did not go according to scripture, nor seek to the Lord GOD for guidance according to his word. They saw Baal and Yahweh as the same God as the Lord God Almighty, because they also worshipped him in Israel. (even if in the mountains and not the dedicated place by the Lord, making no separation after the word of God, but only going by their own thoughts.)
2 Chronicles 32:12 KJV Hath not the same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altars, and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall worship before one altar, and burn incense upon it?
The wisdom of this world does not matter if the word of God says something different. And yes that is what it is to believe in God, to believe in and trust in the word of God as the final authority receiving it as truth. It says what it means and means what it says.
Romans 15:4 KJV For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
Psalms 119:126-128 KJV It is time for thee, LORD, to work: for they have made void thy law. (127) Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold. (128) Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.
