Is There Only ONE True God?
This brief article simply gives the Scriptural
evidence
of the fact that there is only ONE true God. Both Scriptures from
the Old Testament and the New Testament validate that there is only ONE
true God. This is not to deny the truth of the "Trinity", that
is,
one God manifest in the form of three distinct persons.
1. "Unto thee it was
shewed,
that
thou mightest know that the LORD he is God; there is none else beside
him"
(Deuteronomy 4:35).
2. "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one
LORD:"
(Deuteronomy 6:4).
3. "Wherefore thou art great, O LORD God:
for
there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee,
according
to all that we have heard with our ears" (II Samuel 7:22).
4. "O LORD, there is none like thee, neither
is
there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our
ears" (1 Chronicles 17:20).
5. "That men may know that thou, whose name
alone
is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth" (Psalms
83:18).
6. "For thou art great, and doest wondrous
things:
thou art God alone" (Psalms 86:10).
7. "Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and
my
servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and
understand
that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be
after me" (Isaiah 43:10).
8. "Thus saith the LORD the King of
Israel,
and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last;
and beside me there is no God" (Isaiah 44:6).
9. "For thus saith the LORD that created
the
heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath
established
it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the
LORD;
and there is none else" (Isaiah 45:18).
10. "And Jesus answered him, The first of
all
the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord"
(Mark 12:29).
11. "As concerning therefore the eating of
those
things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol
is
nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one"
(I Corinthians 8:4).
12. "One God and Father of all, who is above
all,
and through all, and in you all" (Ephesians 4:6).
13. "For there is one God, and one mediator
between
God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (I Timothy 2:5).
14. "For there are three that bear record in
heaven,
the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one"
(I John 5:7).
