monotheism
Monotheism Jewish and Christian and Arabian outlook
Religions have shaped the nations of our world very much, yet rarely do we ever take the time to learn about it. Religions have defined nations, given purpose to lives of people, and have started wars. This here is a report on such religions, their beliefs, their founders, and their followers.
Judaism was founded by the Hebrew nation of Israel. Abraham, as in the Bible character, is recognized as the Father of this religion. One of the most tenet doctrines in Judaism is monotheism, or the belief in one God. This idea is expressed in the Bible as well as many of Judaism’s other doctrines. It was prophesied in the Bible that a Messiah, or Savior would be born. He was expected to come bringing God’s kingdom of perfect harmony here to Earth. After the destruction of the First Temple in 586 B.C. and the captivity by the Babylonians that followed it, a few other doctrines were added to the religion that we now call Judaism. It was in Babylonia that the Israelites adopted and absorbed new ideas, like the personification of evil, which they named Satan, and the belief in the resurrection of the dead. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are monotheistic religions; I personally believe that there is only one God. Other religions such as Jews and Muslims greatly stress the oneness and unity of God. The affirmation of the oneness of God by Christians is sometimes misunderstood, because Christians believe that the one God is triune (the Holy Trinity). However, this is not a denial of monotheism but an affirmation of the complexity of the Divine Being.
All three religions believe that this God is the origin and source of all that exists. God cares about the entire creation and desires the well being of all. God is just and has provided basic rules for our guidance so that we may be good and righteous, according to God's intention. Growing up in church my entire life, I was taught all about God. One of the things I can
