Day 282. How will idolatry affect you? (2025)

Today is day 282 and we are studying The Second Commandment.

282. How will idolatry affect you?

If I worship and serve idols, I will become like them, empty and alienated from God, who alone can make me whole. (Psalm 115:4–8; Jeremiah 2:11–19; Jonah 2:7–9; Romans 1:18–25)

We will conclude today by praying the Prayer 96.For Union with Christ found on page 674 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
