Deuteronomy 4:25-31: …should you degrade yourselves by fashoning an idol in any form and by this evil done in his sight provoke the Lord your God, I call heaven and earth this day to witness against you, that you shall all quickly perish from the land…Yet there too you shall seek the Lord, your God; and you shall indeed find him when you search after him with your whole heart and your whole soul. … Since the Lord, our God, is a merciful God, he will not abandon and destroy you, nor forget the covenant which under oath he made with your fathers.

Thank you. That man, Lewis, was brilliant! It is unfortunate that many of the modern “thinkers” cannot fathom even a small sampling of his genius.
