The History and Evolution of One God - for Christians,Hindus and all religions

As promised I will discuss/debate the concept of One God which most religions of the world believe in but most also fall short of understanding the real meaning of One God concept or Godhead.

History of God.
Historically man has always prayed to many gods. The most basic form of God was parts of nature,the sun,the tree,the cobra(because of the fear it gives),the cow (because of the food it gives),the King/Pharaoh(because of political power),money (because of what it can buy),etc,etc. These god concepts slowly become more elaborate with fantasy stories such as the Monkey God of the Hindu religion and Hercules and the Greek Gods.The fantasy stories became a belief because of the art of story telling.Story telling was used to entertain and spread a designed message.That was how they understood or try to understand God then.
This story telling method is soon replaced with rationalism brought about by the prophet Abraham and the wise man Philosophers.A One God evolved by the thinking process. The earliest One God concept was the Heavenly Father and the Earthly Mother or Nature that gives us our food,water and air that we breath to stay alive.This One God later becomes the Creator of all things. And this same One God was given other powers such as to punish the bad and reward the good. Thus the concept of the Hell for the evil and Heaven for the good was adopted by most religions.The Heaven and Hell concept was further detailed by logical explainations of the reincarnation methodology as taught by the Hindus and the Buddhist.Further explanations were brought about by the Greek philosophers such as Socrates,Plato and later influenced religions that come after wards.The "Three God" or Trinity of Plato influenced the Christians as preached by the Nicean Creed under the Roman Emperor Constantine.This is when religion became a tool of politics.A story derived from Greek mythology was conceived about Jesus who was said to be Gods son who came to save anyone who believed in him and that anyone who does not belief in him(Jesus) would be thrown into Hellfire.This story brought about the monopoly of God by the Nicean Creed which later was named Christians derived from the Greek word Christos.Christianity therefore has a Greek origin.So it works out that the monopoly of God brought Constantine and the Nicean Creed many followers because all other religions were said to lead the to Hell.
Hence the real teachings of Jesus' One God was changed in favor of a Three God and a monopoly of God via the salvation/crucifiction theory/ideology that makes Constantine the first Christian Roman Emperor to monopolize God.

This monopoly of God by Christians via the salvation/crucifiction theory was soon to be overturned by the Prophet Muhammad. Muhammad said he was a messenger of God.As such his message was the word of God and is worded as if God Himself spoke through the angel and through him.The message was about the One God that got corrupted by Christians Jews and polytheist(Hindus).He was thus sent to correct the corruption of the One God of Abraham and Jesus by priests of the Jewish,Christian and polythiest(Hindus).
The message(Quran) stated specifically that Trinity of Christians was false,and that there is only one God and Jesus was a prophet and not god nor the son of God,and that the holy spirit is an angel. Gods message(the Quran) also said that there is no such thing as inherited original sin,and that no one would bear another person's sin, and that a baby is born sinless,and that sin is brought about by conditioning and knowledge of the law taught by the parents and the people around the person.This invariably overturns the dogma of inherited original sin and salvation through the crucifiction of Jesus.One does not have to belief in inherited sin and the salvation through Jesus.In fact the message of God(Quran)says, one can reach out to God without intercession by Jesus or any prophets.
Being the message of God it was worded in such a way that is sounded like God Himself said it. Therefore the message of God(Quran) enjoins all of us, whether Jews,Christians,Hindus and Muslims to worship only the One God.He will not accept other gods. Other gods are but His creation and that we are making a blunder by praying to other gods.Besides if one worship the whole/Macro God one would end worshiping all gods,however if one worships a small/micro god such as a human a spirit or an idol,one would miss out the Big/macro/whole God of the One God concept.
Therefore one takes a risk of missing the Big/Macro God of the One god concept,whenever a small/micro/human/idol god is worshiped. Allegorically a person who worships the drops of water will miss worshiping the ocean.It can also be said that one worships the trees instead of the forest.Christians often use the allegory of the sun,rays and heat to describe the Trinity of God, saying that they are equal.However by worshiping the sun would mean you are worshiping the originator of the rays and the heat.But if you worship the ray(Jesus) or the heat(the Holy Spirit) you will not be worshiping the sun.The real power is with the Sun(the Father)because the ray(Jesus) and the heat(the Holy Spirit) does not have any power of its own except by borrowing it from the sun(the Father).

This brings us back to the original One God or the Macro God as the real and original teachings of Jesus and all the prophets of the Bible and the Torah and also that of Abraham whose One God teaching was taught to the Hindus and Buddhist.Thus Muhammad claims that he was the messenger of God and his purpose is to teach others to correct the deviations occurring in their religions.This claim of prophet Muhammad should be seen in the light of restoration of the One God of Abraham,that was corrupted by the Jews Christian and Hindus and some Muslims too.Muhammad has said that the Quran is the message from God and that he was only passing the message to mankind.

However besides the message(the Quran) Muhammad had also lived by the message. The message was for him to spread the religion Islam which is the corrected religion of all prophets of God perfecting the personal,community and the nation.He was to implement changes in the way people act and governed through a fair and moral economic system without usury/interest and without slavery or class system.His mission was also to sack immoral governments and replace it with Gods Government and moral economics through a revolution as an example to be adopted by man of god throughout the ages.

This "Gods Government" has come and gone and will come again when mankind start to worship the one true,macro God of Abraham and adopt the no class and no usury/interest sytem of economics.This can only happen when the bubble of the economic of greed(Capitalism and paper money)explodes and hardship necessitates the change very like the changes brought about by the Communist in Russia and China.However Russia and China has reverted back to the reign of Czars and Chinese Emperors disguised as merchants and private enterprenuers due to the corrupt Banking and paper money system.Socialism and Communism was destroyed by the corrupt Banking and paper money economic system.

A new economic system that is based on need rather than greed and real money instead of false paper money that is classless will revive "non greed based" Socialist and Communist economics. We need only to look up the Quran for the just and moral economics calling it Islamnomics.

When countries like America can run up debts that are mind boggling due to the ease in printing money, we are in a way, being conned by our governments.Governments have conned us into believing in false money,and an economy that makes the money printers and lenders a thousand times richer than the man in the streets.

Therefore setting up Gods Government must include moral economics or Islamnomics,an economy that uses real money instead of false money.Economics based the lie of false money must be removed and in it real money,God made money(gold) should be used.We should have never used man made money(paper) when we have all along used God made money(gold).The corruption of money from real to false money is like corrupting the One/Real God for False Gods.

May God give us strength and knowledge to establish Gods Government on Earth.

Salam/Peace.

sudah menjadi kebiasaan manusia akan menyalahkan tuhan apabila ditimpa malapetaka

sudah menjadi kebiasaan manusia akan bersyukur kepada tuhan akan limpah rahmat, kekayaan, kemakmuran yang dia telah miliki

tuhan telah melahirkan kita ke dunia ibarat seperti kita ini seorang pelakon dan watak utama yang sesetengahnya berperanan sebagai penyelamat ataupun pemusnah dunia ini

apapun manusia perlu cukup makan baru boleh rasa bahagia dan bersyukur, boleh bekerja dan boleh berfikir untuk membangun diri, keluarga, agama, dan negara

manusia jadi jahat kerana terdesak dan tiada peluang2 utk jadi baik, tiada alasan yang lain....


HambaMu

Charles Darwin said there's no god. So where is the god?

Pak Yeh says :
Even Charles Darwin cannot get away with the existence of God.
The theory of evolution ends with Mother nature/Earth. Then again,the earth originates from the Sun. And the Suns planets and Cosmos originates from the "One God".
In fact the Quran supports this later Darwinian Evolution Theory by the following verse of the AlQuran 57:3 "He is the Awal(First) and the Akhir(Last). He is the Zahir(the outward,that can be seen),He is the Batin(the spirit,the Unseen).And He has full knowledge of all things."

Salam Pak Yeh,

"In fact the Quran supports this later Darwinian Evolution Theory by the following verse of the AlQuran 57:3 "He is the Awal(First) and the Akhir(Last). He is the Zahir(the outward,that can be seen),He is the Batin(the spirit,the Unseen).And He has full knowledge of all things."

I think there is some mistake in your interpretation of that alquranic verse. How could Allah be the "akhir", hence equating him with all his mortal creations or beings? He, the outward, can be seen? Would you care to enlighten me on this?

Muhammad had several, in addition to ten or a dozen wives. This is all legal according to God’s laws, given in the Koran, and God’s laws don’t change. What was legal 1400 years ago is legal today (http://www.faithfreedom.org/2009/06/21/muhammad%e2%80%99s-sex-slaves/)

Pak Yeh, am I allowed to have more than 4 wives like what Muhammad had 1400 years ago. If not, then why?

Pak Yeh says :
People who dont read the message of God(AlQuran) often attack the personality of prophet Muhammad.Similarly these same people are devoid of brains to debate the message of god and instead attack personalities.
If you are a Christian or a Jew you should know taht God allowed prophet Solomon to have a hundred wives.The prophet Muhammad had one wife for along2 time.He maried more than one wives because of war and in some cases because it was a custom to present wifes by dignitaries.It was an exeption to the rule.He had the money and authority to do it.The marriage was more of customs and politics rather than sex.
If you want to marry more than 4 wifes, go ahead. that is between God and you.As for the 4 wives limit, it is a guideline only.Another verse of the Quran says "there is no compulsion in religion." But you would not be considered less of a Muslim because you dont listen to Allahs message/guidline as per the Quran.

Pak Yeh says:
Sorry. It should read...But you would be considered less of a Muslim, because you dont listen to Allahs message/guide lines, as per the Quran.

The Quran encourages to marry only one.The 4 wives are special circumstances.

The prophet Muhammad's 9 wives after his first wife died are mostly gifts from dignitaries.

I suppose if we are given wives as gifts,we would not be able to refuse it too.We are all humans if we accept wives as gifts,besides it is not a category of sin,as per the example of prophet Muhammad and prophet Solomon.

Salam/Peace.
