Watching protesters on the streets of Los Angeles today brings to mind the riots that rocked the same city 33 years ago. In late April and early May of 1992, dozens were killed with thousands injured and thousands more arrested. Reports placed property damage at $1 billion, with 1,100 buildings damaged.
Soon after delivering Israel from Egypt in a mighty display of power, God gave mankind the Ten Commandments at Mount Sinai. The first two are: (1) “You shall have no other gods before Me” and (2) “You shall not make unto you any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down yourself to them, nor serve them” (Ex. 20:3-5).
