1 Thessalonians 1:9New International Version
Anyone with a hierarchy of values has placed something at its apex, and whatever that is is the god he serves. The Old Testament and New Testament call such gods idols...the systems that give them allegiance are religions.
...for they themselves report what kind of reception you gave us. They tell how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God...
