20	4/2	Exo 34:10-17	Exodus 34:16 (ESV) — .. and you take of their daughters for your sons, and their daughters whore after their gods and make your sons whore after their gods.	There is a reason that God commands his children to marry believers. The worship of false idols is a disease that when brought into a home, can affect a whole family.	The use of whore is slightly distasteful and yet is an excellent choice. A whore wants the sexual satisfaction of a relationship where his/her appetite is satisfied outside the boundaries of God. A whore, while typically referring to a women, because women can give their bodies, can also refer to men in the context of faith, where we give our worship for the wrong type of satisfaction.	God, this world is still full of whores -- people who are selling all kinds of ideas, idols, and wares to draw us away from you. Because, you alone are the only one who can satisfy our inner self. The enemy is deceitful. I pray we would see through his deception.
