Removed the phrase "the One True God," as this is pure, unsubstantiated opinion.
As opposed to [[God]], people have worshiped '''other gods''' throughout the history of humankind. The term "other gods" comes from the [[Ten Commandments]], where God said "You shall have no ''other gods'' before me" ({{Bible ref|Exodus|20|3}}).

While the word "god" refers in a general sense to any deity that is or has been worshiped as part of a theistic belief system, when spelled with an upper-case "G," the term is normally referring to the God of the [[Abrahamic]] religions, the One True God.
