Can Christians Be Idolators?

April 15th, 2008 by Menachem Wecker

  • [ABC] Brandon Kidder (pictured), 26, has placed 4th in the 2007 National Christian Art Competition and has a new book out: “Come Unto Me.”
  • [NewWithViews.com] “How can Christians be guilty of idolatry? I thought idolatry was something that only heathens could be guilty of committing,” writes Pastor Chuck Baldwin. “Christian idolatry: I submit it is more rampant than anyone wants to admit … Christians can be just as guilty of this sin as unbelievers.”
  • [Townhall.com] According to State Attorney General Robert E. Cooper Jr., Tennessee schools can teach courses on “the Bible’s impact in literature, art, music culture and politics.”
  • [Independent, UK] “Is the Arab world ready for a literary revolution?”
  • [Feminist Mormon Housewives] “My first inclination was right: never touch self-consciously Mormon art/literature,” writes Derek in response to a post on “Reading and the point of no return?”

      Bit confused by the National Christian Art Competition’s website. The link goes to a page headlined “NCAC 2005 winners,” but the article you cite is 2008. Visiting the NCAC site by itself leaves one thinking they haven’t updated their website in more than three years . . .
