Real World Background

‘God’ as a title usually refers to the Supreme Being or Creator worshipped by various religious traditions broadly categorized as ‘monotheistic’. Though specific theologies vary widely between and even within these traditions, most agree in attributing to God metaphysical traits such as Necessary Existence, Divine Simplicity, Transcendence, Omnipotence, Omniscience and Omnipresence.

In Abrahamic traditions such as Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, God is identified with the ancient Israelite deity YHWH or El. All Abrahamic traditions trace their spiritual lineage back to the eponymous Hebrew patriarch Abraham, grandfather of Jacob. According to the Torah, the New Testament and the Qur’an, Abraham was one the most important prophets of God, having made the original Covenant between God and the Hebrew people.

Nicene Christianity differs from other Abrahamic traditions in understanding God as a Trinity of three Persons existing in One Being. Nicene Theology further claims that the Second Person of this Trinity - God the Son - physically incarnated in the form of Jesus of Nazareth during the first century of the Common Era.

In Islam, God is understood as the Creator and Sustainer of all reality. According to Islamic teachings, God revealed to Qur'an directly to the Prophet Muhammad in the early Seventh Century CE. Orthodox Islamic theology places particular emphasis on the essential Oneness of God.

Though Hinduism encompasses the worship of countless gods and goddesses, many theological schools understand each individual deity as an aspect or manifestation of the Ultimate Reality referred to as Brahman. Brahman can be interpreted as personal, impersonal, monotheistic or pantheistic depending on the specific school of theology. In addition, many sects worship specific deities such as Vishnu, Shiva or Devi as the Supreme Being in a more conventionally monotheistic sense.

Other religious traditions that center on the worship of a single Supreme Being include Zoroastrianism, where the benevolent Creator Ahura Mazda is opposed by the malevolent 'Anti-God' Angra Mainyu; Sikhism, where God is the essential Oneness permeating all reality; the Baháʼí faith; which regards most major world religious figures such as Krishna, Zoroaster, Abraham, the Buddha, Jesus and Muhammad as 'Manifestations' of God.
