How do people today do the same thing Aaron did with the golden calf?
Today they do the same thing: they use Christian language—resurrection, being led by the Holy Spirit—while meaning something totally different, mixing idolatrous worship with the Lord's name, just as Aaron proclaimed a feast to the Lord around the golden calf.
Les explains that Aaron never argued with the people; he fashioned the golden calf, built an altar, and proclaimed, “Tomorrow is a feast to the Lord,” mixing idol worship with Jehovah’s name. Les says people today do the same: ultra-liberal preachers and theologians talk about resurrection or being led by the Holy Spirit, but they mean something totally different. They use the same New Testament terminology with different definitions, using Christian language while blending false worship with God’s truth; Les calls it almost blasphemy.
And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.
