Who the Bible teaches as the true God?
In the Old Testament times, we can read word for word from the Holy Scriptures that the prophets of God recognized the Father as their one and only God:
"Have we not all
one father? Has not
one God created us?" (Mal. 2:10,
New King James Version)
The apostles also taught that the true God is the Father who is the creator of all things:
"Yet for us
there is but
one God, the
Father, of whom
are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we for him. (I Cor. 8:6,
I bid)
The teachings of the prophets and the apostles are in accord with the teaching of Christ that the Father in heaven is the one true God:
"Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said, "
Father, the hour is come; Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You.
"And this is eternal life, that they might know
You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. (Jn. 17:1, 3,
I bid)
Above all, God Himself left no doubts that there is no other God besides Him. This He declared through Prophet Isaiah:
"Tell and bring forth
your case; yes, let them take counsel together. Who has declared this from ancient time?
Who has told it from that time?
Have not I the Lord?
And there is no God else besides Me, a just God and a Savior;
there is none beside Me. (Is. 45:21,
I bid)
Let us take note that the belief of those who uphold the Trinity doctrine cannot be found anywhere in the Holy Scriptures. On the other hand, the belief that there is only one true God, the Father in heaven, is proven time and again by the Bible.
The father in heaven, not the Son or the Holy Spirit, is the God who should be recognized by all as the one true God.
Let us reject the Trinity doctrine and any religion that professes this belief since the belief in the triune God is both unchristian and unbiblical.
