And that one was Yahweh which was kind of based on El anyway (it’s argued that YHWH was originally one of El’s sons until he gained prominence in the region and eventually was elevated to El’s spot and sort of merged characteristics with him).
But it’s not consistent. I read the sermon on the mount, Jesus consistently refers to god with masculine language. So Jesus’s god seems to be male, while other authors had other ideas.
This was one of my favorite parts:
15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves. 16 By their fruits you will know them.
Let’s apply that logic to Jesus himself. By the fruits of Jesus (his failed predictions and the horrors that christianity has wrought in his name), we know he was a false prophet. By every available measure, prophets do not exist. Anyone can try to predict the future, especially if they’re vague about it. Those who have chosen to “believe” in advance ignore the misses and exaggerate the hits.
Again, Jesus was not a Christian, he was a Jew, a monotheist. He was killed by Rome then his image was co-opted by the empire and his creed disregarded to give more protagonism to amoral Paulian doctrine, which has supplanted the monotheistic core of Jesus’ beliefs to this day. What he said makes entire sense today, just think how easy it would be for Trump loving morons that fall for his sweet lies designed for stupid and evil people to realize his idol is a monster! Just like faith without works is dead, through your acts I’ll know who you are, and it all follows.
And you have a mistaken understanding of the word prophet, which is restricted to the uhh Lisan-al-Gaib, future teller character. Anyone who has had some communication or given extra capacities from the Divine, directly or indirectly, is considered a prophet. Abraham came with “news” of God, breaking with his polytheist culturally enforced beliefs, not prophecy; Moses came with God’s rules, not prophecy; Solomon came with God given wisdom and put it into words for the world to better guided, not prophecy…

What I’m getting at is that Jesus was also problematic, though not as bad as Trump. Jesus confused and misled a lot of people, his bullshit continues to harm us to this day.

Is god not divine? The bible calls them prophets:
10 And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face
The Divine, the One, the Creator, God, they’re all terms for the same entity.
And idk, you’ll have to tell me what part of Jesus’ message or life just wandering around and apparently healing the sick and feeding the needy when he was not preaching about righteousness and love, you think is problematic. Again, the USA of the time killed a revolutionary, God fearing Palestinian man and then used his image to Frankenstein a religion that looked good from afar (because Jesus always looked good) but is nothing but an excuse for immorality and union against a banner for immoral people to go around the world murdering and pillaging (from the Crusades to the Western incursions in West Asia today, as exemplified recently byPete Hegseth). It’s not Jesus’ fault some evil hellbound cunts killed him and used his image to profit from it. 😔🤷♂️

According to you. But that’s in your head, you can’t demonstrate that it exists at all.

He did some of that. He was also wasteful, racist, and delusional.
when he was not preaching about righteousness and love, you think is problematic.
“Listen to me, salvation is only through me, bad things will happen if you do not submit to my dad.” That is not love, that is a threat. Ain’t no hate like christian “love”.

Kind of. But he let himself get crucified because he thought he was a magic man. He was not a great person. His best teachings originated elsewhere. I’m not pretending he never did anything good (if we generously assume that any of the bible comes close to accurately depicting his life), but too many people give him too much credit.
That’s not “according to me” nor a matter of belief, it’s factual: monotheists in different times and places have called God by different names. It’s what it is, people have different languages and roots and all, after all.
I don’t think you understand what you’re talking about. The “passing through him” means changing your mind through his words (or equivalent, but he’s the one alive talking then) so you can better please the Father. It’s nothing new (“I didn’t come to deny the law and the prophets but to put it into action” or something like that), but he was a revivalist in a time of struggle, loss of guidance and Romanisation. And of course other people also inspired and transformed Jesus, he mentions Solomon himself after all, we all mould and are moulded by our circumstances.
The one Jesus prayed to, he specifically called his father.
You know it’s all bullshit, right? It’s a literal death cult.
Cannibal death cult.

Some religious people claim “nuh uh,” to be fair.
Not his, everyone’s, lol. Read the Sermon on the Mount, it’s like 10 pages?
I was referring to your comment:
This is a good point:
