There Is No Right Way to Do the Wrong Thing

Israel was preparing to enter a territory that was saturated with demon worship. The Lord instructs His people in the proper guidelines of worship. There is only one right way to worship God. This passage reveals guidelines related to a particular period in salvation history. The Levitical priesthood and sacrificial worship system were a parenthesis in God’s timeline and was symbolic of the eternal sacrifice of Christ Jesus the Lamb of God (Hebrews 9:9-10).

In Deuteronomy 12:1-32, we learn about forbidden practices that are demonic, permitted practices done wrong, and how you can’t sanctify demonic religious practices.
