Jesus tells us to "love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength." (Mark 12:30)

Paul tells us that we are also to "walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given himself for us." (Ephesians 5:2)

God commands us to love him as he has loved us. In other words, he has loved us with all his heart, soul, mind, and strength.

In a sense, God has worshiped us. Don't get me wrong, he has not attributed any of his own attributes to us — we remain creature, and he, creator.

But he has in a very real way subordinated himself to our good — Jesus "made himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men." (Philippians 2:7)

This is the God Christians worship. One who has taken worthless creatures and raised them to glory, amplifying his own in the process.

Vedic ideas predates Christianity. They stole all the good but took out what they needed to make money. You dont need the walls of a church, a priest, pastor or nun to feel god. Just look within. Jesus said that too

"The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?"

Am I doing this right?
