The Bible regularly describes God in ways used to describe human personality. No idol or pagan deity is a representation of the true God. Hindus accept various forms of pantheism and reject the Christian doctrine of creation. God emanated itself to cause the illusion of creation. There is no beginning or conclusion to creation, only endless repetitions or cycles of creation and destruction.
History has little value since it is based on an illusion.
Christianity affirms the reality of the material world and the genuineness of God's creation. The Bible declares that all is not God. God is present in His creation but He is not to be confused with it. The Bible contradicts pantheism by teaching creation rather than pantheistic emanation. Bodies generally are cremated, and the eternal soul goes to an intermediate state of punishment or reward before rebirth in another body.
