Deuteronomy 12:31

12:31 You must not worship the Lord your God the way they do! ¹  For everything that is abhorrent ²  to him, ³  everything he hates, they have done when worshiping their gods. They even burn up their sons and daughters before their gods!

Romans 1:29-31

1:29 They are filled ⁴  with every kind of unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, malice. They are rife with ⁵  envy, murder, strife, deceit, hostility. They are gossips, 1:30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, contrivers of all sorts of evil, disobedient to parents, 1:31 senseless, covenant-breakers, ⁶  heartless, ruthless.

Ephesians 4:17-18

Live in Holiness

4:17 So I say this, and insist ⁷  in the Lord, that you no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility ⁸  of their thinking. ⁹  4:18 They are darkened in their understanding, ¹⁰  being alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardness of their hearts.
