What do Protestants think of idolatry?

Protestants abandon some superficial and formal things in their writing and pay more attention to absorbing the deep meaning of the Bible. On the issue of idols, we should be especially vigilant and stay away from idolatry.

Here we should understand the meaning of God's word: appreciating an outstanding person and setting a reasonable goal in the struggle is not idolatry, but desirable. And idolatry should not be limited to "worshipping false gods" in a narrow sense. The greed for money, the excessive pursuit of fame and the habit of cheating are all idolatry. We should try our best to leave them.

I wish you peace and happiness ~
