Okay, quick question: I in no way intend to be laic or profane, but do Christians worship Jesus or God? I'm not a Christian and the knowledge of the religion is not my forté. Also, I very much respect peoples' right to religion, so i have no problem whatsoever with the religion. I see Jesus as a messenger who delivered what was commanded and expected of him. But based on my observations, Christians mostly "talk" to Jesus and not God. In the name of Jesus, Blood of Jesus and so on. If I'm correct, the ultimate celestial power should be God's. I do not intend to question his reverence. But I think if they can "pray" to Jesus, then they should equally pray to Moses, Jacob, Abraham and the likes. Blood of Moses, Blood of Abraham and so on. I feel they not only pray to Jesus, but worship him instead of God. If Jesus saves them and answers their prayers, can we say God plays a ceremonial role? I stand to be corrected, so if anyone has an explanation for this, please shoot.

Who gave Jesus the name? Himself?

John 14:6 should clear this up

Please, do state it.

No one comes to the Father(God) except through the Son(Jesus)

Jesus is the Son of God while he was on earth because he wasn't conceived by natural conception.


Luke 1:35 (KJV) And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

Isaiah 7:14 (KJV) Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel

The birth of Jesus wasn't natural and that was why he could die for the sins of the whole world by being a Lamb without spot or blemish

1 Peter 1:19-20 (KJV) But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,.

Jesuobu:
No one comes to the Father(God) except through the Son(Jesus)

Is there a verse to support that or just an assumption?

I don't think this answers the question- Why do you pray to Jesus?

Okay. Does this technically mean Jesus is God? Does this technically mean the contemporaries of Jesus have seen God? Because this statement puts Jesus on par with God.

Have'nt You Read John Were It Says, "In The Beginning Was The Word, And The Word Was God, And The Word Was Made Flesh And Dwelt Among Us." You See; The Word Made Flesh & Dwelt Among Us.. Thats God Being Jesus Christ Also..

We Pray To Jesus Christ B'cos He Is The Greatest, Supremest(if There's A Word Like That)..

Who did Jesus pray to in John Chapter 17?
Was he praying to himself

Pardon me, but this is one of the most ridiculous references I've ever seen. Absolutely implausible.

Okay. I get the fact that he's revered. But he's still a messenger, son of God or not, it's makes no sense to "pray" to him. If you think Jesus can grant whatever you pray or wish for, then where's the superintendence of God. If God is the creator and controller of the universe, then why is Jesus' influence unlimited. Your statement logically means Jesus can do whatever God can. Does this mean God has no say over Jesus' decisions.
