Good Question!
If it wasn't for Jesus, this world would already come up with a one world religion.
We have more power than we know. There will be a "one world religion" some believe and it will create a sense of unity in all the world. But it will be a false religion. Because Jesus came to restore relationship with the Father. He Himself said, " there is no way to God but by me."
Nimrod and the Tower of Babel were the beginning of a one world religion and because God knew man would find another way, He confused their languages.
With the advent of computer technology man has again found a way that is not The Way. Jesus is The Way, The Truth, and The Life.

Simply put, you can have a relationship with a god (little "g") without Jesus, but you cannot have a relationship with the God who created the Heavens and the Earth and everything therein without Jesus as your intercessor.
In John 14:6, Jesus himself states "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." In Acts 4:10, Peter is talking the the high priests about the crucifixion of Jesus and states later on in chapter 12 that "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."
In my opinion, that clearly puts a relationship with Jesus first....before you can even have access to the throne of God.

If you are a Christian, then yes, because Jesus and God are part of the Trinity and hence are one. You could have a relationship with God in your own eyes, but never be able to obtain true salvation because of not involving Jesus. Outside of Christianity, this is a moot point, since no one else views Jesus as divine.

The Jews are an excellent example of this. They have always been God's chosen people, however, they don't acknowledge Christ as the Messiah, only a prophet, so as far as they are concerned Jesus is not involved in their relationship with God. However, they still have a relationship with God and are still favored by Him. So I would say, yes you can have a relationship with God without involving Jesus, especially if you are a Jew.

No, that's ridiculous. Jesus had a relationship with God, and did he have a relationship with himself? Jews have had a relationship with God for thousands of years. Jesus is the way to understanding God, for Christians, but I don't impose that way on everybody else. Jesus wasn't about doing that either.

Yes, a relationship with God without accepting Jesus is no relationship at all.
The Bible tells us that we cannot get to God but by Jesus. That is why we pray "in Jesus' name ... Amen!"

Yes. It's quite simple. If a relationship with God but without Jesus were possible, Jesus would not have had to come to earth, live and be crucified. Since He did, He is necessary.

I'd say no, seeing as the Jews -- who came before Jesus -- had a relationship with God that wasn't false. If it wasn't for Moses -- a Jewish Man -- Jesus wouldn't be around in the first place, because all the Jewish people would be stuck in Egypt as slaves.

It`s according to your beliefs. It is not false because jesus is the christians god but not every religion worships jesus. One must define their own spirituality without organized religion as it is corrupt and misleading

God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost are one...
1 John 5:7
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are ONE
1 John 5:8
And there are three that bear witness in earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood; and these three agree in ONE
