Just WHO is God?

Post #1

Post by MadJW »

In world religion there all kinds of Gods.
I, personally, have examined most of them and found them lacking.
Then I come to 'Christian' religion, and find that the majority of them don't know God at ALL!
I think one can have a serious debate on THIS site!

The Bible= Jehovah (Name removed by most 'Christian' churches)
Churchianity= there's Three!

Christianity is defined as followers of Christ.
But many differs in beliefs.
There are few groups and there are large groups also.
.
So we agree Jesus indicated the minority people that claim to be Christians really are. You are in the majority , we are the minority.
Jesus said the minority are on the road to life.
The majority will be destroyed.
The majority of people that identify as Christians believe in the trinity.

Majority of Christians worship Christ..
What Did Jesus say about the broad and spacious road with MANY on it?
Christianity is defined as followers of Christ.
Followers of Christ, yes. Worshipers of Christ, no. Follow isn't interchangeable with worship. Jesus worshiped his Father. Jehovah's Witnesses FOLLOW Christ in that respect.

"Then Jesus said to him “Go, Satan: for it is written ‘You shall do reverence to the Lord your God, and worship him alone.’” - Matt 4:10

Note Jesus said 'it is written' where is it written?
Deuteronomy 6:13, "Jehovah your God you should fear, and him you should serve, and by his name you should swear."

Jesus never said 'I am the one you must worship'.

I'm not sure you and I share the same meaning for the word worship. If my mate tells me to go take the trash to the curb, because I listened to them, I fear you'd call that worship, but I'm not sure.

Worshiping ANY god other than Jehovah is a sin. He is the Most High (Psalm 83:18, KJV).

We follow both. Jehovah is God and assigned Jesus to do many marvelous things, with His (Jehovah's) power. He represented God here on Earth and they were one in that they agreed on everything and were truly in unity. Actually, to follow Jehovah is to follow Christ, because Jehovah says so (Matthew 17:5), and so do the disciples. They are that close to each other. Jehovah taught throughout the Hebrew Scriptures that Christ was to come, and many things that would be associated with him (Christ). Jesus did to the letter what the Father told him to do. (John 12:49,50) A person can't accept one and not the other.

I mean this text that the disciples worshipped Jesus, do they commit sin?
Matt 28:17-18
17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.
18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
KJV

I am a Christian but I belong to a denomination that members are few compare to others.
I just believe that the Father, Jesus and the HS are united in purpose.
