What does the Bible say about worshiping different gods?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible condemns the worship of multiple gods and emphasizes the necessity of worshiping the one true God.

The Bible explicitly teaches that believers must worship the one true God, Jehovah, and have no part in the worship of false gods or idols. In the context of Ezra 4, the Israelites refused the assistance of those who worshipped other gods, asserting that they had nothing in common with those who do not worship the Lord God of Israel. This stance reflects the Reformed understanding that true worship must be rooted in the knowledge of the true God and that any other worship is incompatible with biblical faith. In Exodus 20:3, God commands, 'You shall have no other gods before me,' reinforcing the absolute necessity of exclusive devotion to the Lord.
