what religion gave us one god?

Answer 1

No religion gave us one God, there just happens to only be one.

Answer 2

Judaism and Christianity both did: the opening words to both the Torah and the Bible say, "In the beginning God created the heavens and earth..." Just one God from the first sentence. And God emphasizes the fact that there is just one God over and over again in both the Torah and the Bible. The greatest commandment is listed exactly the same in the Torah in Deuteronomy 6:4 as Jesus says it in Mark 12:29: "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord! And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your mind, all your soul and all your strength!" The reason why it was being said is because many Jews were becoming involved in paganism (or were already worshipping both YHWH and other Gods), so God is clearing it up. The first commandment is: Hear, Israel! There's only one God! And it's Him you should love with all of your efforts. Don't waste your time on any other, because none other exists. And there are plenty of other verses that say that there is just one God: For example, Isaiah 42:5, Isaiah 45:12 and Jeremiah 10:12 all identify God as the one who created the heavens and the earth and stretched it out by his power, direction and authority, and that he commands the whole host. Only He does! These verses say He is the one who put the breath into all and put a spirit into all people.

1 Corinthians 8:6 says that there is just one God, our Father and one Lord (or master), Jesus Christ. There are so many verses where God calls Himself the only God in the Bible. And the reason why He is doing it is He hears the cries of His people saying, "If you are real, reveal yourself to us!" He is saying, "Here I am! It's me, YHWH. I see you searching, and here I am! There's only Me! So look here, and you can find out about Me!" I'm not saying that other religions have no hope. I firmly believe that God is the one True God over ALL people, even ones who don't believe He exists or understand who He is. But that's why He extended us mercy in the first place: He knows we're confused by all of the information out there. And He's trying to help us find Him! He has such great mercy that if we don't get it right, He will keep reaching for us. He does not destroy His children. He is the One True Creator in all of the Universe. And He will not by any means destroy His children. So I would say, why worry about knowing everything, and just love what you know about God. It says that the spirit of God will guide us into ALL truth anyways, so why worry? Since He's God, how can we get to the "end" of learning about Him? We'll have all eternity to learn more and correct any wrong teaching. But we shouldn't fear him! We should just love Him. The bible says "He giveth more grace", and He always will give more grace for us to learn.

Answer 3

Akhenaton introduce monotheism to the ancient Egyptians, suppressing worship of their pantheon in favour of a single God figure called Aten. It's very likely that this religion is what Moses took with him in the Exodus and used as the basis of Judaism. After Akhenaton's line was deposed and wiped out, Aten worship was in turn suppressed and polytheism again became the official religion of Egypt, with most references to the monotheistic period of their history erased from the record.

Answer 4

Judaism.
Hinduism.

The two oldest religions of one god. (Some Mysterious Religion of Babylon does not count because nobody can even say if there is indeed such a religion, or something some one made up just to proof themselves as the oldest religion.)

Answer 5

I dont think there is any religion with multiple gods. Some think that hinduism is of multiple gods. However they believe in one god.

Answer 6

Zoroastrians, precursor to Judaism also the ones who gave us the idea of the 2 distinct opposing forces of good and evil

Answer 7

Several of them make that claim. It is largely thought that Judaism did, but this is probably not true. Monotheism is believed to have risen in the Late Bronze Age, and this may have influenced Judaism.

Answer 8

It began with Abraham. He was the founder of Judaism. So, Judaism would be that religion.

There may have been other, less well-known religions to introduce the concept first, but if so I have not yet heard of them.

Answer 9

In the order of appearance was Abraham and Judaisim, the Christianity and the Islam.

Answer 10

Judaism, Islam, and to a lesser extent, Christianity.
