Return to Tim's Homepage Can I Visit Temples?


  

Depends on what you intend to do there. If your intention is to worship other gods, then the answer is no. God, the one and only, forbids the worship of any other gods. In fact, God is a jealous God, who does not consider any other diety worthy of worship except Himself. So we should not make God angry by worshipping other gods once we have become Christians.

Other than that, you are free to enter any temple or non-Christian place of worship that allows you in. And you should have no fear of going anywhere, of consuming even the food offered to deities. God, and the spirit in you, over rules all. As God's children, you may go anywhere in this world, with full protection from God. If there is ghosts or evil spirit around, they stand no chance against you, because you have God's protection anywhere you go. Any Christian who express concern about entering non-Christian places of worship should look at it from the other way, that it is an insult to God and to the command (to go into all the world), for there is nowhere in this world God's protection is not reachable.
