For Non-Abrahamics / polytheists who worship Jesus

Hello,

I was inspired to start this thread on a book about magic, in which the author recommended to simultaneously worship YHWH/Jesus and the Devi (God the Father + the Divine Mother). I know that a similar concept exists in Wicca, but I am mostly interested in the worship of the "Christian God" along with other deities. If you have Jesus in your pantheon, how do you worship him and with which gods do you group him? What is the relationship of Jesus to your other deities in your eyes? Would you say that your faith is more "heart-centered" or does it appeal more to logic?
I wanted to put this in the Syncretic Religions DIR, but don't know if everyone has the necessary posting privileges to reply there.

I read a bit about Voodoo. They have their top God Bondieu but he isn't accessible to them so they have loas which they worship instead.

I'm an eclectic animist. I also had a 'born again' experience with Yeshua. I accept Yeshua as my Ssavior: I have no idea what that actually means. When I meditate upon this, it seems that Yeshua just shrugs his shoulders, smiles, and say, "Follow Me." It doesn't seem to matter what I think or am concerned about...his response is the same..."Follow Me!"

Following him seems to be about taking care of others, of not putting oneself first, of living for the here and now and NOT for some future life in heaven. It doesn't seem to be about beliefs; it's all about action, about doing and being. I can't say that I'm doing a really great job following his teachings, but I do try. Some of it I just don't understand...He just shrugs his shoulders and says, "Follow Me!"

So, needless to say, I reject all the points of the Nicene and other creeds, and hence, I am not Christian. Most of the new testament is therefore irrelevant to me.

I am, I suppose, a Yeshuan animist.
