WORLD RELIGIONS

Detailed explanation-1: -Christianity has always been monotheistic, meaning that we believe in one God. But our belief in God’s oneness refers specifically to his nature, or essence. Jesus taught and showed that the Divine Nature exists in three Divine Persons.

Detailed explanation-2: -The phrase false god is a derogatory term used in Abrahamic religions (namely Judaism, Samaritanism, Christianity, the Baháʼí Faith, and Islam) to indicate cult images or deities of non-Abrahamic Pagan religions, as well as other competing entities or objects to which particular importance is attributed.

Detailed explanation-3: -Idolatry is the worship of a cult image or “idol” as though it were God. In Abrahamic religions (namely Judaism, Samaritanism, Christianity, the Baháʼí Faith, and Islam) idolatry connotes the worship of something or someone other than the Abrahamic god as if it were God.

Detailed explanation-4: -Polytheism is the belief or doctrine that there are multiple gods or deities. Like monotheism, the word polytheism can be used in the context of specific religions (such as Hinduism) or outside of formal religion. A person who believes in multiple gods can be called a polytheist.
