Christian theoligian Bart D Ehrman (Professor and Chair of the Department of Religious Studies at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill) wrote in his book "The Orthodox Corruption Of Scripture: The Effect Of Early Christological Controversies On The Text Of The New Testament":
Christianity in the second and third centuries was in a remarkable state of flux. To be sure, at no point in its history has the religion constituted a monolith. But the diverse manifestations of its first three hundred years - whether in terms of social structures, religious practices, or ideologies - have never been replicated.
Nowhere is this seen more clearly than in the realm of theology.In the second and third centuries there were, of course, Christians who believed in only one God; others, however, claimed that there were two Gods; yet others subscribed to 30, or 365, or more. Some Christians accepted the Hebrew Scriptures as a revelation of the one true God, the sacred possession of all believers; others claimed that the scriptures had been inspired by an evil deity. Some Christians believed that God had created the world and was soon going to redeem it; others said that God neither had created the world nor had ever had any dealings with it. Some Christians believed that Christ was somehow both a man and God; others said that he was a man, but not God; others claimed that he was God but not a man; others insisted that he was a man who had been temporarily inhabited by God. Some Christians believed that Christ's death had brought about the salvation of the world; others claimed that his death had no bearing on salvation; yet others alleged that he had never even died

Well it seems that the early Christianity had bizarre beliefs about their doctrine as well as their Scriptures. Moreover the Jesus and early Church Fathers were utterly unaware of this doctrine and they never practiced it.
You didn't know what to worship or who to worship!!!
