I John 4, Lamentations 3:22 It is so easy to give into false worship. It is not only the literal worship of idols. It is denying the very presence of God.

There may be times when God is denied unintentionally. The world has conformed itself to accept that there is a higher being and that there are spirits. But God is just not any spirit.
