“Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood. For I know this, that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock.

Nor is He worshiped with men’s hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things.
