We worship the invisible air-like spirit thing called God.

However, since no one has seen God, we really don't know if that is what He looks like.

However, we also worship His Son, who preached to love everyone and everything.

Yet people still don't understand why we have religion. I have a question, is this a coincidence:

1. America has become much less religous in the past 50 years.

2. Crime rates have SKYROCKETED in the same time period.

What do YOU think???

True Christians worship God, Jesus' Father (in spirit and truth), gives honor to Jesus as the son by followiing his commandments and examples, and gives honor to the holy spirit by living a life guided by its fruits.

No the Pastors continually warn us approximately having something to do with Christians that don't attend a church in many situations and questioning they understand each and every thing. yet i desire to assert this there are those that won't be able to attend church by using fact of being housebound and are bodily no longer able to attend church homes yet attend them on the television and get fed that way. i think a Lone Ranger Christian would not want anymore coaching and are unteachable by using fact they think of they have arrived. by using fact while you're transforming into fed the television and praying and fellowshipping with different Christians that come to circulate to you it relatively is the comparable as church. Praying consisting of them and worshiping with them brings Jesus on the scene.

They're supposed to worship Him and follow His word. Unfortunately, there are too many preachers and/or priests who worship money and political power instead. Those are the ones that give Christianity a bad name. They are the reason I (somewhat) lost faith. If I can't trust them, who CAN I trust?

Obviously you're refering to the trinity which is a idea that as a Jehovah's Witnesses, I don't follow. I believe that Jehovah is God the creator, Jesus Christ is His only begotton son, and the holy spirit is God's active force.

Acts 7:55-56
55 But he, being full of holy spirit, gazed into heaven and caught sight of God’s glory and of Jesus standing at God’s right hand, 56 and he said: “Look! I behold the heavens opened up and the Son of man standing at God’s right hand.”

In fact it may surprise you that before Jesus came to earth, he lived in heaven, and God created the earth through Jesus.

John 8:58
Jesus said to them: “Most truly I say to YOU, Before Abraham came into existence, I have been.”

Proverbs 8:30-31
then I came to be beside him as a master worker, and I came to be the one he was specially fond of day by day, I being glad before him all the time, being glad at the productive land of his earth, and the things I was fond of were with the sons of men.

there is this thign called the Trinity its complicated and the only way to think about it is how mom would say she's a

Mother, Daughter, and Sister but still one person.

So we believe in one God but he takes different forms.

God isn't human. This complicates things for us when we hear that we are "created in his image" but if you think about it.. if you look in the mirror the image you're seeing isn't really a person but a reflection. We're human an imperfect reflection of God.. so we shouldn't try to think of God as this big guy with a beard sitting on a throne in heaven because he's not a human by any means at all. Other than when he came to earth as Jesus Christ, but you know what i mean..

At this point, they're not even sure anymore. Is it Big Daddy, Junior, and The Spook? Are they supposed to put The Blessed Virgin in there somewhere? Are God and Jesus "homo ousius" (of same substance) or "homoiousius" (of similar substance)? And what's the word "homo" doing in there, anyway?

That's why I stick with the Flying Spaghetti Monster - there's no confusion where His Noodly Appendages are concerned.

I can't speak for all of them as their are many branches and I have no idea what each of the branches contain as far as tenets, dogma, ritual, etc. I myself worship only God. I have accepted Jesus as my savior and I carry the holy spirit in my heart.

If they do, then they shouldn't. I believe that a true Christian would only worship God.
