Paul, I think you have misunderstood what the prophets have been doing for we are commanded to: (Doctrine and Covenants 20:17-20.)
17 By these things we know that there is a God in heaven, who is infinite and eternal, from everlasting to everlasting the same unchangeable God, the framer of heaven and earth, and all things which are in them; 18 And that he created man, male and female, after his own image and in his own likeness, created he them; 19 And gave unto them commandments that they should love and serve him, the only living and true God, and that he should be the only being whom they should worship. You will notice that it says that God (the Father) is the "only being" that we should worship. A few years ago there was quite a program in books and other literature that promoted, in the Church, making Christ the center of our lives. It was quietly discouraged and the material were withdrawn by the authors. Because God the Father is in fact the only authorized object of our worship. We can love, respect,hold in high esteem and appreciation the Son, our redeemer, but we worship only the Father.
