Doctrines are man made.

Well according to all three of the Abrahamic traditions, they are the right doctrine, other other ones are heretical or wrong in their belief system.
The Jews say they are right, the Christians say they are the Way, and the Muslims do so as well... so take your pick. They all teach the same basic belief system, with some twists in characters and rules/laws/practices for worship.

He doesn't. If you read the Bible, and assume it's absolutely accurate, then you read the koran, then you have two contradictory messages, because the Bible claims that Jesus is the only way to God and that He is the very SON of God, while the koran states just the opposite, that God has no son, and Jesus was nothing more than a messenger. And yet this messenger must have been some kind of lunatic, 'cause he went around claiming to be the Son of God!
So ONE of these are correct, and the other is a lie from hell.
Read both with an open heart and decide for yourself.

God doesn't expect different doctrines, he accepts different doctrines. After Christ's resurection he told the diciples to go to the different churches and tell them the truth of what had happen. Well of course you get 12 different stories, 12 different doctrines. God doesn't care by what name he is called or how you praise him, as long as you acknowledge the fact that he gave his only son to bear your sins, that his son died on the cross and rose on the thrid day. And that all of this happened so that we could be with him in heaven. There are many how worship God, but don't realise they are seperated from him by their sin, and that Jesus is the only way they can truely be reunited with god.

He doesn't.
If you read the Old Testament, New Testament and Koran without any preconceptions or religious interpretations, you will find that the Books are all in perfect harmony and compliment each other.
All the various religions have been invented by man, in order to control and enslave civilizations.
Some even have the audacity of writing their own books full of traditions and superstitions, to strengthen the deception. eg. The Jewish Talmud, The Muslim Hadith and the Christian doctrines of the Nicene Creed, etc.

Because different cultures had created different gods, with different names, and therefore created different doctrines on how best to worship their god.
Only later, did some cultures and people decide that they all represented one "god".... but not all believe the same, some still maintain their different.
Either way, they are man-made gods, with man-made books, and man-made doctrines...

different environments offer different prospectives and therefore human outlooks and experiences are different. It is not evil to eat pork yet pork is a meat which goes off very quickly and in the heat and lack of refrigeration in desert areas it would swiftly spread disease. so it makes sense to ban ignorant people from ever touching the stuff by saying god has forbidden it.
other local mores would also apply

He doesn't. He requires that He is worshipped in only one way. Sadly, modern-day religions have become tainted with worldly philosophy, pagan teachings, etc. so they do not worship him in a way that He approves. Just because a religion worships God in a certain way does not mean that He accepts that form of worship.

The bible clearly states that God only accepts one.
You are the one that has to find it.
Just imagine how many times it has been put before you and you have turned it away, have no doubt that it has been put before you because if you ask for it Jesus will make sure it is.

They are not the same. Jehovah God is creator and the Father of Jesus. Jesus died for our sins so we could go to heaven. In return we should worship God and try to live by the bible.
