Molech Worship…

Leviticus 18:21, “And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.”

Molech is a idol that was worshipped by the Semitic Hebrew people in a time of the ancient past. The idol of Molech was powered spiritually by a Evil Spirit which was receiving this false worship indirectly in the Spiritual Realm. This Evil Spirit demanded the ultimate sacrifice of its followers which was the blood of children, in which was said this idol granted the estabishment of kingdoms such as the Persian and Carthaginian and protection unto the people from the heavens above. The worship of Molech was a very detestable site in the eyes of Jehovah God, due to the fact that it required the ultimate sacrifce which was the blood of the innocent. Molech worship not only involved the sacrifice of children but also opened the people up to a host of Demonic influence in the worship of the sun moon and stars by Manasseh. Manasseh was the son of King Hezekiah who built pagan altars in the Temple of the Lord for Satanic worship. 2 Chronicles 33:4-6, states “Also he built altars in the house of the LORD, whereof the LORD had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever. And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD. And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.” The idol of Molech is just that a idol, constructed by man with no power of itself, but the Evil Spirit behind its worship is very real and demands the blood of our youth even today. This Evil Spirit manifests today in the form of child negligence and the desires of this world, which many parents and children alike want in order to provide comfort for their lives instead of the Living God. These desires pull the young and old alike into abortion, adultery, the pride of life and the love of money. These Human wants and desires are not of God but of the Devil himself. This Evil Spirit of Molech strives off of these emotions and leads many into rebellion. As Disciples of Christ and parents we need to be aware of the ills of this world that cause us to neglect our children, and discipline them to follow the right path which is Jesus Christ. We need only to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ to them daily and pray that His Holy Spirit moves within them to do what is right. Be warned and take heed from the scriptures about the neglection of our youth stated in Leviticus 20:1-5, “And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones. And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name. And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and kill him not: Then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their people.” Shalom…
