What is Idolatry for a Christian? | Sam Shamoun

sam shamoun / shamounian talks about what is idolatry for Christians and is it idolatry for a christian to have a statue of Jesus or Mary or the saints? and what is the base around it from what it means in the Old Testament in the New Testament we see that in the Old Testament that people were worshiping idols and taking them as gods and anything that they praised too much and over God alone would be idolatry because those were not the true things standing in their life and behind these false gods in the Old Testament was a demon attached to it also going over the icons and images that Catholics used today, which is not idolatry because it is out of respect and statues of Jesus in a church who we already know is God is not idolatry, and we see that in the Old Testament, during the time of Moses even got himself would have the Ark of the covenant built in Gold as Gods a image that the Israelites would see.
