Idolatry is the worship of an idol or cult image, being a physical image, such as a statue, or a person in place of God. In Abrahamic religions, namely Judaism, Christianity and Islam, idolatry connotes the worship of something or someone other than God as if it were God.

Those who are against the removal of the statue believe it is an attempt to rewrite history. But historians say that statues themselves are not history – rather they are a symbol about the time in which they were first erected.

Statues are another form of art that feature predominantly in the Catholic Church. Statues serve as reminders of key events, beliefs and individuals in church history. Statues served, and still serve, as reminders of the saints and Christ and how they set an example of how people should live.

Opinion: Don’t pray to statues; pray to God Exodus 20:4: “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth, you shall not bow down to them or serve them.

Jesus surely is no idol. He is proven deity from the scriptures and rightly worshiped as such by God’s angels (Heb.

According to the psalmist and the prophet Isaiah, those who worship inanimate idols will be like them, that is, unseeing, unfeeling, unable to hear the truth that God would communicate to them. …

According to verse 1, God’s commandments are his rules and statutes – so pretty much anything God says in the Bible. Commandments, rules, and statutes seem to be interchangeable according to this verse.

1 : a law enacted by the legislative branch of a government. 2 : an act of a corporation or of its founder intended as a permanent rule.

A police officer pulls you over, and you are given a citation for violating the speed limit. You have broken a vehicle and traffic law. This law is established by legislature as a statute, or a law that is formally written and enacted. As a result, the law you broke was a statutory law.

Christians believe that God has always existed as judge over his creation. God’s judgement is a process that ends in a decision about whether a person is worthy of his reward (Heaven) or not (Hell). Some Christians believe that God judges each soul as soon as a person’s body dies.

Scripture clearly indicates that God does view sin differently and that He proscribed a different punishment for sin depending upon its severity. While God does see sin differently we now have Jesus to forgive us of our sin.

An abomination in English is that which is exceptionally loathsome, hateful, sinful, wicked, or vile.

“Thou shalt not commit adultery”, one of the Ten Commandments, is found in the Book of Exodus (Exodus 20:14) of the Hebrew Bible and Old Testament. It is considered the sixth commandment by Roman Catholic and Lutheran authorities, but the seventh by Jewish and most Protestant authorities.

Fornication is generally consensual sexual intercourse between two people not married to each other. When one or more of the partners having consensual sexual intercourse is married to a third person, it is called adultery.

Adultery isn’t just a crime in the eyes of your spouse. In 21 states, cheating in a marriage is against the law, punishable by a fine or even jail time. States with anti-cheating laws generally define adultery as a married person having sexual intercourse with someone other than their spouse.

Legally adultery is defined as “voluntary sexual relations between an individual who is married and someone who is not the individual’s spouse”. So an online relationship, kissing, meetings in secret, holding hands or anything less that that would not be classed by the court as adultery.
