Subtle Idolatry II: Construct

When God is made into a construct we tend to worship the construct.

Whether the construct is from the striving hand or from the pridefully presumptuous natural mind -- the construct is nothing more and nothing less than an idol.

Natural theology develops an "idea about God" by logical deduction. "He must be, therefore He is." It is an attempt to know God apart from God.

Deduction is not reality. It is a construct. If it is acceded to, worshipped, and obeyed then it is clearly an idol.
