Literature Text

“And the Lord said unto Moses, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first: and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables, which thou brakest. And be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present thyself there to me in the top of the mount. And no man shall come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount. And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up unto mount Sinai, as the Lord had commanded him, and took in his hand the two tables of stone. And the Lord descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord. And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation. And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped. And he said, If now I have found grace in thy sight, O Lord, let my Lord, I pray thee, go among us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for thine inheritance. And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the Lord: for it is a terrible thing that I will do with thee.” ~ ‭Exodus‬ ‭34:1-10‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Perhaps you don't know this, but later on the Jews began to worship the artifacts in the Ark more than the God of the artifacts.  Today, we have Christians who put obeying the Bible above obeying God the Holy Spirit.  The Bible is not God.  But God the Holy Spirit is God.  God the Holy Spirit is to be obeyed in light of the Bible, not the other way around.  When we put the Bible above the Author, being God, we are committing Idolatry.  But when we obey the Holy Spirit in light of the Bible, then we obey God.  God the Holy Spirit gets His instructions from God the Father through Jesus Christ.  Fundamental Christianity is in serious trouble with God regarding this out of order type of living.
