Imitate or idolize



It is good to follow godly examples, but our worship must be reserved for Christ alone

How do we avoid being disillusioned by the spiritual examples we admire ? We must imitate them but not to idolize them. Paul saw himself as a copy to be followed only to the extent that he reflected the original. He said, “Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ”(1 Corinthians 11 : 1)
