I. You Shall Have No Other Gods

The first commandment, to worship God alone, seems on the surface to be easy. Most of us probably don’t have wooden statues of Zeus that we bow down to in the morning. But what does it mean to have other gods? What are the things that occupy center stage in our hearts? This episode discusses the preamble and first commandment: “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. You shall have no other gods before me."

This We Believe is brought to you by Lexham Press, publisher of Dr. Niebauer’s forthcoming book Four Mountains: Encountering God in the Bible from Eden to Zion.

Learn how God uses symbols like wood, water, and fire to stitch together the Old and New Testaments, and discover how these symbols draw us up into the very life of Christ. Four Mountains can be read by individuals or as part of church Bible studies and Christian education classes.
