Isaiah 44:14-17
“He hews down cedars for himself…..
Then it shall be for a man to burn,
For he will take some of it and warm himself;
Yes, he kindles it and bakes bread;
Indeed he makes a god and worships it;
He makes it a carved image, and falls down to it.
He buns half of it in the fire;
With this half he eats meat;
He roasts a roast , and is satisfied.
He even warms himself and says,
‘Ah! I am warm, I have seen the fire.’
And the rest of it he makes into a god, his carved image.
He falls down before it and worships it,
Prays to it and says, ‘Deliver me, for you are my god.’ “

Yes! Interesting how it can be so clear in some cultures and yet so hard to perceive in others, like here in the UK.
God bless you!
