If we think we can have human heroes along with worship of God, then we are placing a person equal with God. Still a form of idol worship. We can love people, admire their love for Christ and listen to their counsel if it comes from Scripture, but they should never be seen as "heroes", they are merely obeying God which is their reasonable service.
Romans 12:1 "Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship."
