Idolatry is anything that comes between you and God.
If you rely on a gun or money, and not God, they become idols. One does not need to ...
- bow down to it
- offer prayers to it
- burn incense to it
... for something to be an idol.
does my couch or pillowcase come between me or God? How about laundry washing machine?
