A Clean Form of Worship
8 The Bible tells us that there is one true God. Only in the Bible has he revealed to us his name, JEHOVAH. There he states: “Before me there was no God formed, and after me there continued to be none.” Jehovah, therefore, does not have avatars, nor does he exist in different aspects. All the qualities and forces needed to sustain creation exist in him alone. “To whom can you people liken God, and what likeness can you put alongside him?” the prophet asks.—Isaiah 40:18; 43:10.
9 In Jehovah’s worship, it is clean conduct, not ritual, that is required for his blessing. God says: “Of what benefit to me is the multitude of your sacrifices? . . . Incense—it is something detestable to me. New moon and sabbath, the calling of a convention—I cannot put up with the use of uncanny power along with the solemn assembly. . . . Even though you make many prayers, I am not listening; . . . cease to do bad. Learn to do good.”—Isaiah 1:11-17.

Jehovah—How Different?
Comparing the Hindu concept of God with that of other religions, Dr. S. Radhakrishnan observes: “The God of Hebrews [Jehovah] is of a different type. He is personal and active in history and interested in the changes and chances of this developing world. He is a Being who communicates with us.”—Hinduism and Its Rationalism, M. Hariharan, 1987, page 56.
