If you are going to know anything about Christianity, you will need to understand why people become Christian and why we worship the God of the Bible.
1. We worship the God of the Bible because He is claiming to be a God of LOVE... 1 John 4:8, Exodus 34:6, Psalm 86:5, 2 Cor 13:11, Ephesians 2:4
2. God GIVES His life to us SACRIFICIALLY John 3:16.
3. LOVE is the PINNACLE of the Christian faith 1 Corinthians 13:13, 1 Corinthians 14:1, Ephesians 3:17, Galatians 5:6, 1 John 4:7.
4. Christians are commanded to LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF Leviticus 19:18, Leviticus 19:34, Matthew 7:12, Matthew 19:16-19, Matthew 22:35-40, Mark 12:28-34, Luke 6:31, Luke 10:25-28, Romans 13:8-10, Galatians 5:14-33, Ephesians 5:25, James 2:8.
That about sums it up, LOVE. That is why God put His message in the center of the world. He didn't hide it.. And I'm sure there is more... What is important to you? Your career? Money? Your possessions? Money? Your ego?
Do you want LOVE to reign in your life? Then follow God. Trust me, it's really that simple.. And you will take that throughout your life and to eternity..

Why worship God?
The heart cannot rejoice in what the mind rejects as false - Galileo
We learn from history that we do not learn from history - Georg Friedrich Wilhelm Hegel
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things. -Philippians 4:8
