why do you worship the "Human" form of god? you are worshiping what god was "the human god" (or the idea of a human god) why are you worshiping the human when you could worship the body-less omnipotent Lord God, i am preaching my beliefs to you this time. Why would you worship a Human just because "GOD" rose his son from the dead? jesus NEVER said to worship him he said to worship his father through his teachings.

Well Bobby , I am glad to hear that you are reading your Bible daily that is a good start to understanding God. But you must also pray that he will give you understanding also. To some people reading the word is hard to understand with out the Holy spirit leading them. Don't always count on what man says to you as being the truth. Read John chapter one and ask yourself who the Word is. Then see when the Word was , where the Word was and who the Word was. See what all the Word did in the beginning. The Word made the earth , the Word came unto his own and his own recieved him not. But as many as recieved Him to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name. Verse 14 says the Word was made flesh. Now who do you think the Word was? There is only one man that this could be. Why was he made flesh? Because the only way to pay for your sins was through the shedding of blood , thats why in the Old Testament they sacrficed the animals to cover their sins, but the blood of the animals wasn't good enough to cover every ones sins once and for all. But Jesus's blood was because he was God , and perfect. He was the perfect sacrifice. God the Father accepted the sacrifice and Jesus conquered death and the grave when he rose from the dead. Therfore he paid your price for sin Romans 6:23 says, the wages of sin is death. that is the price he paid for you. Romans 10:9 says That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. That is why we Christian believe in Jesus and why we worship Jesus. In Revelation Jesus is the Lamb that was slain that was worthy to receive power,and riches,and wisdom, and strength,and honour,and glory, and blessing.and every creature in heaven and earth,and under the earth,and in th sea.blessed the father and the lamb. Well I could go on for hours but if you really want to learn more keep reading your Bible and ask for understanding not that which comes from man but from God.

because you read a different bible then Christians do you do not read over an over the power in the name of Jesus. You cannot worship the Father Jehovah except through the name of Jesus. Acts 4:12 says "Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven ( thats us ) given among men by which we must be saved. Also (all use this one because) this passage in your bible does read the same as in the christian bible John 1:1-4 says In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life (here we are again) and the life was the light of men. Jesus is the light of man without Him we cannot worship God as he has required. Cain could not make God accept his sacrifice, The only acceptable sacrifice was the Lamb, and that is still true today. Jesus is the answer. We worship Jesus through the Holy Spirit because to do so is pleasing to the Father God of all creation Jehovah.

Jesus received worship on numerous occasions. Just check out the NT. My fav is when Thomas declared Him to be Lord and God.
John 20;29. Some others are:Mat 2:11,Mat 8:2, Mat 9:18 ,Mat 14:33,
Mat 15:25, Mat 18:26, Mat 28:9, Mat 28:17, Mar 5:6, Mar 15:19,
Luk 24:52, Jhn 9:38, Rev 5:14. A quick review of the NT might help you along these lines.

Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."
That's why I worship Jesus.
Peace

Jesus is God. God took on human form. Jesus IS 100% human, but He is 100% God, so he is owrthy of worship. Jesus procllaimed himself to be God, and therefore worthy of Worship.

Shane said it all... Your ideas that God just forgives sin is corrupt. Even in the Old Testament it say there is no remission without shedding blood. Since God is not subject to our time and Jesus using the name of God for Himself not only claimed to be God but showed that His sacrifice on the cross would be an eternal sacrifice... Christianity passes the test of the fulfillment of the Old Testament Islam didn't even show up on test day... You have nothing to present to God at judgment but the filthy rags of your self righteousness... Jim

Jesus said I and the Father are one
In John chapter 8:58 Jesus claims divinity when He says "Before Abraham was I AM." That is why the jews wished to stone Jesus. Even they understood that. reference Genesis 17:1 And Exodus 3:14

Jesus said no one can have eternal life except though him.The bible teaches when we pray to the Father we are to pray in Jesus name. Jesus is the lamb , the Son of the Father who hied for our sins , died , was berried , and on the 3 ed day arose again. So Jesus died for your sins.So no one can go to Heaven except through Jesus.

Great points Sir. It appears that you are seeking the truth. If this is true.......
1 TIMOTHY 3:15
But if I am delayed, I write so that you may know the right and proper way to conduct yourself in THE HOUSE OF YAHWEH, who are the called out ones of the living Father, the pillar and ground of the truth.
Romans 2:13—
For not the hearers of the Law are the righteous in the sight of Yahweh, but the doers of the Law are the righteous.
seek to do righteousness, seek truth, seek Yahweh.
