Does the New Testament promote one God?...or a triune God?
Question: Does the New Testament promote one God?...or a triune God?
Answer:
Triune God? No
The New Testament states clearly that there is only one God, the Father. Yahushua also confirmed this when he quoted Deut. 6:4 as the first commandment in his reply to one of the scribes:
"And [Yahushua] answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord [Yahuwah] our God is one Lord [Yahuwah]: And thou shalt love the Lord [Yahuwah] thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment." (Mark 12:29-39, KJV)
Paul and others also believed clearly in one God, the Father:
"But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord [Yahushua] Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him." (1 Corinthians 8:6, KJV)
"Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord [Yahushua] Christ: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord [Yahushua] Christ." (1 Thessalonians 1:1, KJV)
"Jude, the servant of [Yahushua] Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in [Yahushua] Christ, and called." (Jude 1:1, KJV)
Answer:
Triune God? No
- There is no text in the New Testament that says God is three.
- There is no text in the New Testament that says God is a triune God.
- There is no text in the New Testament that says God is the Father + the Son + Holy Spirit, three persons in one God.
