Today's idols are more in the self than on the shelf.
Goudzwaard's three basic Biblical rules:
- Every person is serving god(s) in his life.
- Every person is transformed into an image of his god.
- Mankind creates and forms a structure of society in its own image.
That for which I would give anything and accept nothing in exchange is the most important thing in my life. Whatever that is, is my god (cf. Isa. 44:6-20).
