On the link above, Pastor John Piper answers the question, "What exactly is an idol?" (Audio and audio transcription are available)
From the very beginning of the Exodus, God commanded the Israelites against having other gods—(against idols.) He knew humanity's tendency would be to place created things before the Creator, to serve and worship the things of this world instead of Him. Centuries later, in 1 Kings 18:21, we see how far the people had strayed. They were deep into idol worship. Standing before them, the prophet Elijah made it clear: they had to choose *who* they would serve. The same problem exists today. People are still caught between serving God and serving modern-day idols. Elijah's message stands through time: *we must choose whom we will follow and serve.* Still today, the major problem is: *many believe they are serving God when, in reality, they are not.* *If God is not first* in your life... *If you do not follow* His Word and live according to it... *If you devote more time, energy, and passion* to other worldly things than to the things of God... ...then you may be among those who *think* they serve God, while unseen idols control their lives. These idols demand your time, dictate your priorities, and become what you think you truly live for. > The choice Elijah presented remains: *Choose today whom you will serve—the Living God or the idols of this world.*

Romans 13:12-14 NLT [12] The night is almost gone; the day of salvation will soon be here. So remove your dark deeds like dirty clothes, and put on the shining armor of right living. [13] Because we belong to the day, we must live decent lives for all to see. Don’t participate in the darkness of wild parties and drunkenness, or in sexual promiscuity and immoral living, or in quarreling and jealousy. [14] Instead, clothe yourself with the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ. And don’t let yourself think about ways to indulge your evil desires.
I Kings 18:21 NKJV [21] And Elijah came to all the people, and said, “How long will you falter between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him.” But the people answered him not a word.
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 NIV [9] Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: [10] If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.
Ecclesiastes 11:5 NKJV [5] As you do not know what is the way of the wind, Or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child, So you do not know the works of God who makes everything.
Proverbs 18:1-2 GNT [1] People who do not get along with others are interested only in themselves; they will disagree with what everyone else knows is right. [2] A fool does not care whether he understands a thing or not; all he wants to do is show how smart he is.
does the scripture above confirm that we can not and do not need to fully understand everything about God because we can't know and understand everything about him?
