I’ve wanted to hang posters and actually cover my walls with pics/quotes from this certain celeb. Is that a sin? I know the bible says not to idolize/worship anything but God. I really don’t want to go against God’s word, ya know? I am torn over the decision to hang posters or not. Will God consider it as me idolizing or worshiping this celebrity? I don’t consider my adoration for him to be idolatry. I hope I get the answer I’m looking for. =/
Yes, I do love God. I give my life to Him. And I do worship him alone. I’ve come across a few people telling me they worship a certain celebrity and I’ve told them that’s wrong. So you see, I don’t worship this person. It’s just admiration. So I’m safe right? =)
Thanks Jill. I remember my mom saying something a long time ago about how Christian musicians shouldn’t give autographs etc. because…ah I forgot the rest but she was saying it’s not right for people to idolize and drool over celebrities the way they do. It’s not like that with me though…or at least I don’t see it that way.

I’ll make sure I have tons of bible verses etc. up there too. ^_^

Thank you for your lovely answer. I thought I might get that response. The, "It’s between you and God" thing. I will pray about it. The pics and quotes do not take away from my relationship with God. Actually, they encourage it. They encourage faith and healing the world. Making a change for a brighter tomorrow. I didn’t mention the celeb’s name mainly because I know how rude people can be. But there’s a clue for you. A beautiful child of God. And yes, of course God will ALWAYS be #1 in my life.
Thanks so much and God bless. <3
