Monotheistic religion starts at the core wherein One God created the world and its people because He loved them! Polytheistic religions also have love at their core. AD 60 or 70 first known Christian writings 1600's Christian Bible, King James time Before that is Pagan Nature Worship
Judaism
The Mitzvah—God blesses every good deed
Thousands of years old
God Yahweh made a covenant with Abraham
that if Abraham and his people the Hebrews
Obey Him,
He'd consider 'em,
His chosen people, watch over 'em
God sent the Hebrew to kill their enemies
sparing not man, woman, child
or even the suckling babe
On the other hand,
God said He would protect Isreal
so long as they,
shed no innocent blood upon their land
Caninities’ (Palestinian) today
He will not abide by the killing of innocence
He shall not protect Israel, they, on their own
(Jeremiah 7:6,7)
If you ask God,
why He turned His back on Abraham's people,
it’ll take a genuine prophet to interpret
Islam
Allah—The One and only God—Allah is good
Bear witness to One God, Muhammad
is the messenger , God is great
Muslims worship the God of Noah, Abraham
Moses, David and Jesus
Peace be upon 'em all
However, it is certainly true that Jews,
Christians and Muslims
have different concepts call
of the Almighty God
Christianity
Over 2000 years old intact
There are more Christian sects
then you can shake a stick at
Buddhism
The Buddha
sits under a bode tree,
Flowering vines entwined Him
On them,
strewn were strange jewels
Of gold -n- silver, lapis lazuli
Agate, cornelian, coral -n- amber
Leaves from its branches
Shone a bright light
the way of peace
Surrounded also the swirling
forces of greed,
tempest of evil intent
desires source of all suffering
with meditation
He extinguishes these desires
and its fiery flames
What remains,
pure ecstatic bliss of endless
inextinguishable love
Hinduism
Lord Krishna 8th avatar of Vishnu
Vishnu being less charismatic,
Yajna yet most powerful Yajna
The oldest religion on Earth!
Protecting the world from evil's prances
Supreme God save us from the upheaval
Whilst playing His flute -n- dances
Krishna’s blue complexion is
the infinite expanse of the sky
the vastness of the ocean
His dance is
lifeforce motion,
constant change -n- flux
The vital joyous force,
casting off our collective
part of painful illusion,
sweeping us ever onward
eternal journeys
Higher planes
Nirvana
A Realization is with me
from my deepest self I reveal
an emotional rapture beknownst it be
Enamored in love is how I truly feel
of the combined sacred oneness
Emotions unfurled
Respect, charity, and the loveliness,
for God and his creations
and appreciation
'Tis is common in the world religions
'Tis the common essence
Shared are His values when in His presence
Realization from my deepest self I reveal
Enamored in love is how I truly feel
a strong sense of collectiveness
felt with all things
to be continued
