Explained for Children
Imagine if you built a big sandcastle, but your friend said they made a castle too. But your friend's castle wasn't real—it was just a drawing. The real sandcastle would stay, but the drawing would disappear. This is like saying only the God who made everything is real, and the pretend gods will go away.
