  • Molech in the Bible

    ,

    Molech was a pagan deity worshiped for child sacrifices, condemned in the Bible, notably in Leviticus. Israel’s kings, influenced by foreign practices, fell into this sin. Molech worship symbolized deep human depravity and rejection of God. In contrast, Christ offers redemption, embodying love and mercy while reminding us to reject idolatry.
