Obeying God rather than men - One Minute with Bishop Burbidge
Walk Humbly
The first of the Ten Commandments states, "You shall have no other gods before me." Each of us experience the temptation to "worship idols" in our own lives any time that we feel the urge to heed the commands or expectations of the world. God should be the center of our attention and concern—not empty appeals of celebrities, political figures, or other worldly figures. We belong to Christ and are called to reject empty priorities and follow God's ways and commands. Under the threat of death, Peter and the Apostles said: "We must obey God rather than men." Inspired by their courage and example, may we reject the untruths and empty promises of the world. Instead, may we follow God's ways and the Joy of the Gospel, no matter the cost.
