Why should humans attribute anything to God! Christians above all! Worship only One God!
Why should humans attribute anything to God! Christians above all! Worship only One God!
The history of mankind is but a history of associating idols with God whether any phenomena of nature, statues and humans, or animals or the devil. These are either worshipped for their own or they serve as mediators between humans and God.
All mythologies represent this system of beliefs. From the Pharaonic polytheism to Sumerian myths, Acadians and Hellenic polytheism as well as the Roman polytheism all invoke hierarchies of divinities.
The Maya and Anka as well as that of the spririts of red Indians perform the same type of adoration. Now in the world you have Hindus (eight hundred millions of them) worshipping a hierarchy of polytheistic belief-system. Zarathustras in Iran, whatever is left of them, follow the same pattern of worship.
Monotheistic religions came to correct these polytheist belief-systems and proclaim God as the one and only. Monotheism prescribes only one God, indivisible, unique, eternal, does not beget and is not begotten. This is exemplified in Judaism and in Islam. Both Judaism and Islam proclaim one indivisible God, the eternal creator of heavens and earth and whatever is in between.
Christianity, however, proclaims one God but in three dimensions, rather in three different persons namely Jesus Christ, God Himself and the archangel Gabriel. Thus, associating partners with God.
Christians do not acknowledge association of partners with God, rather one God expressed in three things, the son, the father and the Holy Spirit.
They do not consider this trinity as deviation from the oneness of God. They proclaim one God but ascribe to God a son, who is God Himself nonetheless, and they ascribe the Holy Spirit Gabriel to the same God.
God of the Christians, in this way is not a trinity but one God.
In reality they admit, oddly enough, at one and the same time that Jesus Christ is the son of God who was born to a woman, worked for his living and preached for himself. Then being a menace for the Jews was captured by the Romans, sentenced to death and was crucified to redeem humanity from the original sin which Adam and Eve have committed.
The complexity and ambiguity of Christian belief makes us consider it as a polytheistic belief system restricted to three Gods.
The weakness of Christianity as a belief system demands too much of our minds to accept. The father is God. God has decided to be His own son. Then detached from the father the son was born to a human being. Then this human being, being God Himself decided to leave His throne and be a human being. Then God being this human being, has deserted His throne for thirty three years and became man.
God, at this stage, is not more immortal and eternal , but mortal and un-eternal. God left behind the management of the universe to be engaged as a carpenter. Then He decided all of the sudden to give glad tidings to His fellowmen, proclaiming His Kingdom as being near and that humans should take heed.
God was captured by some Roman soldiers and then sentenced to death on the cross of which he had to carry on His shoulders. Then God the son cried out for help of his father, but God the father did not come to his aid. No one knows why!
God, being the son and father at one and the same time, but separating from one another from time to time to perform once human functions and once divine ones.
Then God, being the son at this time, died on the cross and was buried along side two criminals.
Then, God the father, having mercy, at this point of the story, decided to resurrect His beloved and only son unto Him in heavens. There, father and son were united, after having had a hard lesson by King Herod.
They were joined by Gabriel. And the three lived happily ever after!!!!
You must be either out of your mind to believe such a crooked story or abandon it completely and lose your faith in God or you have the choice of correcting this belief system and adjusting it to monotheistic belief, that is believing in one and indivisible God, eternal, who gives life and death and is the creator of everything. Thereby Christ returns to his post as only a messenger of God, his servant and worshipper. Gabriel returns to his office as the archangel. All are separated and everyone of them performs his own function.
You alone have the choice!

Leadership is a two-fold sided phenomenon. There are two parties that are of the same subject. First, and on the one hand there are those individuals, or even groups, who want to lead others. Second, and on the other hand, there are those individuals or groups, they can be in millions, that accept to be led. If this is not the case then we do not observe this phenomenon in every society in the world.
It is a striking thing to listen to world leaders, especially in their discourses as candidates for presidential elections or in their discourses as already presidents. God is simply absent, He does not exist for these leaders, or potential ones any way. Inequality and injustice reign and the jungle law is the law of man. Only when humans believe in God that equality and justice are achieved. It is when God is the center of the universe and not man that humans become humans.
