Chapter XII: How God Is to Be So Distinguished from Idols that Perfect Honor May Be Given to Him AloneThere is one God alone and nothing belonging to his divinity can be transferred to another:
unless everything proper to his divinity resides in the one God, he is despoiled of his honor, and the reverencing of him profaned. (I, xii, 1, p118)When any other being, be it human, idol, saint or other is revered like a god, we are stripping honour due to God himself.
How might we strip this honour from God today?
