Christianity
Why is it that Christians worship Jesus more than they do God? Jesus isn't God but it almost seems that he is more important to Christians than God.

i think it is becuase that only through jesus we can get in good terms with god, but you do have a point. Jesus is gods incarnete but not god. I on the other hand believe in jesus and god , but for some this is a touchie subject so i hope what i say doesn't offend you. In catholic beliefs they worship amry when she isn'd god either but only a messanger, i guess jesus is gods messanger but with the events that took place it makes it sound as if they were gods. Just know that there is only one god and the words he wrote were the ten commandments and not what other people wrote or say. Hope this helps and take care

Being a follower of Jesus is what it means to be a Christian, so of course there is a focus on the teachings of Jesus in being "His" disciples. Christians additionally believe that Jesus is not only the Son of the one and only God, but that He is God fully in human form manifested. In submitting to Jesus, one is submitting to God and it is only through Jesus that a human can access the Divine God. Jesus is the Savior, Whom God Himself provided to all humans. In the Christian Faith Jesus is the spiritual reflection of God in human flesh, and a part of the triune or three in one, personhood of God. Hope that clarifies.

I am 15 and a nondenominational Christian. For me, Jesus, God, and the Holy Spirit are the same person or entity. So when worshipping Jesus you also worship God.

I understand where you are coming from because I once asked this myself. It's hard to understand, but here is the real deal. I'm Catholic so my beliefs might be different. Keep this in mind when you recieve all of your answers.
As Catholics we believe(and I think most Christians believe this) that there is only one God. Only one man to worship. God needed at the time someone to take "rule" over Earth. So he sent Jesus. Now the special thing about Jesus is that not only was he 100% man he was also 100% God. So in a way he was like the representitive for God. There is something called the Holy Trinity. The Holy Trinity combines The Father (God), The Son (Jesus), and The Holy Spirit(which is like a unearthly life force.) All three of these are combined to make up God.
So to answer your question we do not worship Jesus more than God because essentially Jesus is the same person as God. This may be hard for you to grasp because it took me a whole 15 years before I actually understood it completely. Hope I answered your question.
