God (YHWH Yehovah/Allaha) is One, Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit are components within Him. Jesus Christ is Alpha and Omega, Bible begins with Beth and end with Nun (good English Bibles are KJV and ESV). Get nearer to God by memorizing the entire Bible in your language, starting with new testament, and pray everyday. Read the works of Luther, Augustine, Manton

信仰耶稣,(勤劳的)记忆圣经(先记新约),思想不停的想圣经,洁手纯心,博爱,怜悯,正直,自卑,(时常)祷告,宣告圣经,教人遵行, 对于听的进的人:教导培养和改造基督徒:模仿,接近,一直达到成为跟耶稣和圣灵一样(一样的心,一样的思想,一样的灵魂)。Pray daily that God crucifies your flesh and makes the Holy Spirit stronger than your flesh. And with memorizing the Bible, and prayer, become more and more like Christ in your inner person.

God forbids offering prayers to Mary

As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou might charge some that they teach no other doctrine

Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned
1 Timothy 1:3, 1:5

The LORD God has no mother.
Because this would imply that the LORD has a beginning.   He has no beginning.

Whether God has a beginning:

Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.
Psalm 93:2
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
Psalm 90:2

Concerning the mother of Christians:

But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
Galatians 4:26

Concerning whom Jesus said was his mother:

And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren
For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
Matthew 12:49-50

This shows that:
if God refers to Yehovah, there is no mother of Yehovah (as far as the Scriptures tell us).
if God refers to Jesus Christ, then any Christian who does God’s will is his mother.
(and he would exclude Mary from being his mother, if she doesn’t live by God’s will.   That’s exactly what he said in Matthew 12:49-50, because his disciples were living in his teachings, and at that time, Mary was not living in his teachings.  This also shows that Mary sinned at least once.)

Therefore, there should be no special veneration given to Mary.
She was merely a servant of God, helping God to accomplish His purpose.

Therefore, it is inappropriate to offer prayers to Mary.
Prayers ought to be offered to Jesus Christ, or to God the Father (Yehovah) in the name of Jesus Christ.
No prayers for Mary or any saints or any angels.

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
1 Timothy 2:5

Also, please do not mix with Eastern religions, neither take up their names.
Christ is the Eternal Way.

-ism is an ancient paganism from China, it’s similar to the religion of the Canaanites (which is called “New Age” in the United States, when it’s very ancient paganism, abominable to the Lord God).   It’s the blasphemous idea of deny God as a person, but rather pretending some inert pool of energy, to get tapped and used by people for their own purposes.
But the reality is that God is the Lord of the universe, and God is alive and active and sentient, He rules over us.   People are made to serve God’s purpose.

Take heed to honor God with your words, that they are found clean in the sight of God.
Live life to please God in all things, not to please people of this world.

Also, Christian religion is written: 基督
Orthodox church is written: 東正教会

It’s a church, not a religion.

Also, the Lord God ordered us to not make images:

Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
Exodus 20:4

So the practice of looking to pictures of Christ is wrong.
Instead, Christians ought to looking to God in the heart, without pictures, as in the Early Church.
