These are human beings who are deified because of the extraordinary live they have lived.
These groups of divinities are spirits associated with hills, mountains, rivers, lakes or thick forest. Whatever is considered the abode of spirits becomes a sacred place.
The divinities have responsibilities. They are ministers with portfolios in the theocratic government of God. The belief is that God has delegated authority to them. They are intermediaries. People worship God through them. They are worshipped daily through sacrifices. They have temples, shrines, priests, priestesses and devotees. They are also semi-autonomous agents. Each of them is the executive head of his department. Their adherents see them as a means to an end and not an end in themselves.
Worship is an expression of man’s attitude towards God and other spiritual beings. It is an act of communication and communion between man and the supernatural world. It is a means of strengthening the cord of relationship between God and man and a mean so restoring broken communion as a result of sin.
