Jesus told his true followers to worship YHWH so why do those who profess to love him actually Disobey him ?

Question

Jesus got upset when someone called HIM good. Jesus replied that do not ever call him good because only GOD is good.

How upset is he with those who WORSHIP him instead of GOD ?

Answer 1

According to the Gospel of John, Jesus is YHWH.
This is disclosed by repeated references to where He asserts "I AM". The Greek here is "ego eimi". This is exactly how the Greek Septuagint of the Old Testament translates the sacred name of God (YHWH) in Exodus 3:14.

Also, if you read John 12:37-41, you will see that the glorious Being worshiped by the Seraphim in the 6th Chapter of Isaiah is in fact the Lord Jesus Christ in His pre-incarnate state, and He is there called YHWH.

Answer 2

Can you at least provide scripture verses when making a statement like that?? I don't recall Jesus ever getting upset over such a thing. He tells us the only way to God is THROUGH HIM (Jesus). He is one and the same with God the Father and God the Holy Spirit. It's called the Triune God. Three in One. I worship God (three in one). Jesus is not upset, I'm sure!

Answer 3

Beats me! YHWH is not interchangeable with Jesus. they are two separate and distinct entities. There is only one GOD in whatever manifestation you care to call GOD.

Check out Wakan Tanka/Great Spirit, this gives a better description of GOD than the Bible does. The Bible is not the only book that talks about GOD. People should be more well rounded than to accept that everything there is to know about GOD can be found in just one place, especially since GOD is vast, and all encompassing, omnipotent, the ALPHA and the OMEGA. A thousand books wouldn't be enough to tell us all there is on the subject of GOD.

Answer 4

I don't think he is upset........because they are still worshipping to the good side, like it says god begot his only son to save people and that is his job........it's not for you to judge how jesus or god feels just worship and ask jesus yourself if you get to heaven....and bout the disobey thingy as a human it is sometimes hard to not give in to the fun things evil offers and sometimes learnin the hard way is the best way to learn...like it says in the bible as a soilder of god we all have to endure our share of suffering

Answer 5

Matt.6:9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 6:10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 6:11 Give us this day our daily bread. 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 6:13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
John 14:13,14,16;21,28; 16:23;26 [ In Jesus name we pray ]; John 17:1-26;

Matt. 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
22:38 This is the first and great commandment.
22:39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
22:40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

Gal.5:19-23; Rom.13:8,9;

REV.14:1-6, 7; Gen.21:33; 22:14[Abraham and LORD God of Jesus]; Exo.6:3; 17:15[ Moses and LORD God of Jesus]; Judges 6:24[Gideon and LORD God of Jesus]; Psm.68:4; 83:18 [ David and LORD God of Jesus ]; Isa.12:2; 24:4[Isaiah and LORD God of Jesus]; John 17:1-26; Rev.14:1-6,7

Answer 6

They worship Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God in heaven. Should I do otherwise?

"Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and the elders. In a loud voice they sang:
"Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain,
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and praise!"

Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, singing:
"To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be praise and honor and glory and power,
for ever and ever!" The four living creatures said, "Amen," and the elders fell down and worshiped."
Revelation 5:11-14

"And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says,
"Let all God's angels worship him."

Hebrews 1:6

Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
10that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.

Philippians 2:9-11


So when will you begin to obey God??

Answer 7

yet differently to invite is 'Does a real christian bypass to war? Does the chruch advise going to war?" Jehovah's wittnesse and a terrific variety of of the Amish do no longer bypass to war, in spite of if the Amish do no longer pontificate to 'outsiders' to that end showing that they do no longer persist with Christ occasion of treating all and sundry a similar and attempting to grant all and sundry the message of eternal existence. So fairly i'd say as a company right here in the worldwide that Jehovah's wittnesses are the only ones that are united in worship no count what race , creed , shade ,intercourse , social or value effective status.

Answer 8

And YHWH himself (Jehovah in common terms), also said at Isaiah 43:8 ... "I am Jehovah, that is my name, and to NO ONE ELSE shall I give my own glory." That's pretty clear to me.

======================

If I may, there IS scriptural evidence. When Satan was tempting Jesus, one of the temptations was to offer him all the kingdoms of the world if he would just fall and do ONE act of worship to him. What did Jesus say: "GO AWAY SATAN, for it is written, it is Jehovah (or the Lord) your God you must worship and it is to him alone you must render sacred service" - Matthew 4:10

Answer 9

god and jesus are the same. god sent himself in a physical form as his son, down to earth to speak the word. god is not angry and he knows who you worship even if you are confused. he knows you mean well. now , if you were worshiping other people or things like idols, than thats a different story. god said to worship no other idols but him. hope i helped. i cant say ive read the bible tooo much but i grew up in a christian home. if im wrong, i appologize. im not perfect, lol.

Answer 10

It's hard to say if He's upset (although I must say that He was probably upset with satan in the passage in Mt.) or really hurt and dissappointed. Read Mt. 4:8-11 and Joh. 4:21-23.
