The Christians claim that bible tells that there is only one Almighty God LORD/Jesus. But the verse Deuteronomy 13:6-10 tells you to Kill the people even though they are your friends or family worshiping a God that is different than your own God. This clearly tells that according to bible there are many/different Gods. If not the bible should have said in a clear manner like do not worship false Gods. Any Other views for this verse?

A God can be anything and this is the reason why God says Don't have any other God but me. There are only one Almighty God which is God the Father. One Lord which is Jesus Christ and One Holy Spirit which is the Comforter. Now a God can be a cow even your own child. Things that you worship is a God. So we need to differentiate the meaning of a God and the meaning of the Almighty God. Have a nice day. Please remember that we are no longer under the laws of the Old Testament because Jesus Christ has come and change some of those laws. We are under the new testament and it has outline what we should do.

God is only God. Or it should have mentioned "False Gods" instead of "Other Gods". Both makes a lot of Differences. Hindus Worship Almighty God in the form of Cow Or you can tell Worship Almighty God through the Cow. Hindus Consider Almighty God is present in Nothing to Everything. I dont know if the Almighty GOD referred in Bible is Not present in Nothing to Everything. Many claim that you must not follow Old Testament. But there is a verse in bible where Jesus is said to said that you must not neglect Old Testament. If you know that verse, mention it here. If you dont know that verse, tell me and I will mention it here. Let Humanity Be Peaceful.
