Dude, if you wanna sing your praises to allah, please start your own thread.

We would like this thread to stay on topic, at least as much as possible.

Thank you.

BillyBob there is no real answer to your question. However, you are merely following the letter of the law, the spirit of the first commandment is against false idols, but more importantly, putting anything in front of God. If you believe in Jesus, and it turns out he never existed or wasn't God, but you are living your life in a good moral way, I couldn't see any reasonable interpretation of God holding that against you. How can this be? Well you are putting God and your moral life first in your life, so it doesn't matter what embodiment you put on our creator. I would argue that you could be following any religion and it doesn't matter which one is "right", just that you follow the spirit of what God asks.

they should worship to the great God ( Allah ) not jesus , the great God sent jesus and others for obeying and worship him and guided all the world for Allah

Thats the kind of mentality that could manifest itself in ugly immoral ways.

Would you not agree that people should make their own conclusions on who they should worship? For instance, I'm catholic, but if someone in my church is hit really hard by something your church does or believes in, I wouldn't be resentful or upset in the slightest. Of course, I'm also overjoyed when others choose to follow the same faith I believe in because I think such a choice is influenced by our actions within and outside of the church.

Just some food for thought.

A reasonable response. However, it goes against scripture.......which is the crux of the problem.

thank you for your respected mentality, maybe you misunderstanding me .. i don't say all people obligated worship the same but i meant it's better for them to choose worshipping just one God (Allah ) , everyone has a mind to choose what he want but who and what is the right one ? that's a question .!!!!

I'm not exactly a Christian (at least not as most "Christians" believe they are Christians), but I'll tell you want I do know. They believe in the Trinity, where God, Jesus and the Holy Sprit are manifestations of the One God.

Many still ask, however, why Catholics pray to Mary. Though I guess you could say that this technically isn’t worshiping.

But if the concept of the Trinity is false, then Christians are wrongly worshipping Jesus and breaking the 1st Commandment.

Just in my opinion I do believe that the concept of the trinity is false I happen to believe that Jesus God and the Holy ghost are three separate individuals and it is proven in the Bible.
