Christians: I broke a statue of the christ on the cross, it was made of marble...

...sculptured to almost perfection? .. (perfection in the sense that the image was almost like human). But yet, its all there is.. just a marble.

Since most of our family members kneel in front of it during their prayers, I feel ashamed that I seem to disrespect their faith on a marble image.

Did I commit a sin for breaking the image of god?
 
You should try to replace it thereby taking away the shame and feelings that you have sinned
 
No sin.. it was just a "thing"... We are not to worship or put anything above God. So no sin,, but then God knows your heart not me.
 
We are not to kneel before images or idols. Besides, Christ is no longer on the cross.

maybe you did them a favor.
 
I believe the Bible speaks aganist idols and images and the hosts of Heaven and worshipping them too. Have you read the book of Leviticus and Exodus, Bible. If you pray to Jesus pray to Him not a picture or statue of Jesus.
 
no you didnt and for you to think that you can break somthing earthly and commit a sin u are sadly mistaken
 
GOD DOES NOT CARE...

(Exodus 20:4-5) “You must not make for yourself a carved image or a form like anything that is in the heavens above or that is on the earth underneath or that is in the waters under the earth. 5Â*You must not bow down to them nor be induced to serve them, because I Jehovah your God am a God exacting exclusive devotion, bringing punishment for the error of fathers upon sons, upon the third generation and upon the fourth generation, in the case of those who hate me;
 
Well no... actually you were committing sin for having an image of God, and committing sin for kneeling before an image of god......

You will be better off without the statue.
 
No you didn't sin, it is a graven image that your family should not be worshiping.

Jesus is not in the statue, pray to Jesus, not to his graven image....
 
No you didn't sin, it is a graven image that your family should not be worshiping.

Jesus is not in the statue, pray to Jesus, not to his graven image....
 
I see it as you doing them a service. Stopping them for worshiping a false idol. You should be proud not ashamed. :)
