Part 5: The One God Is Not Three Persons

The One God is not Three Persons

Part 5

God Is One

The Holy Scriptures declare that there is only One Lord God. We have seen many Scriptures that prove this Oneness of God, that “God is One”.

These are just some of them:

Deuteronomy 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:

Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

Galatians 3:20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.

Yes, truly, “GOD IS ONE”. It is clearly taught in the entire Holy Scriptures. We can scan through the pages of the Book from Genesis to Revelation and we‘ll find the truth “GOD IS ONE”. Did the Holy Scriptures teach that “GOD IS TWO” or “GOD IS THREE”. Have you read Scriptures that say “the HOLY TWO” or “the HOLY THREE”?

Listen to God saying over and over again that he is “THE HOLY ONE”. There are so many verses about the Holy One and this is just one of them:

Isaiah 43:15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King.

But we will never ever read, “The Holy two” or “The Holy Three”. Where can we read “The Holy Three”? In the catechisms, creeds and confessions of traditional Christianity. They call it “The Holy Trinity””. The Trinity as they claim is Three in One, or Three Divine Persons in One God. The Holy Trinity or the Holy Three. But the Holy Scriptures never ever teach about the so-called “Holy Trinity”.

The Father and The Son are “ONE”.

Jesus Christ the Son said “I and my Father are one.” (John 10:30). Those who don’t believe in the absolute Oneness of God teach that Jesus here was saying that he and the Father were only “one in purpose” or “united”. The context does not say that. If that’s true, then Jesus must have said, “I and my Father are one in purpose”. Jesus Christ said in John 14: 7 “If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.” Then in verse 8 Philip said unto him, “Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.” What do you think would be Jesus Christ’s reaction to that? He replied to Philip in verse 9 saying, “Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?”. Jesus Christ was saying to Philip that he was a long time with them and yet they have not recognized him who he really was. He said that “he that hath seen me hath seen the Father”. In other words, the Father looks like him exactly. Because he is “the image of the invisible God” (Col. 1:15) and the “express image of his person” (Heb. 1:3). Jesus was with them for a long time but he did not recognize him who he was, that he was God himself. That’s very clear. If you are a man of understanding, you will understand what Jesus was saying and what he meant in what he said. Though he did not directly say, “I am the Father”, the words that he said prove that he was God himself.

John 8:24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.

What was Jesus saying and to whom was he speaking?  He was speaking to religious antichrist Unitarian Jews, who didn’t believe in his deity.
About whom was Jesus speaking? he was speaking of the Father. In John 5:19 they asked him, “Where is thy Father?” and Jesus answered, “Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.” It is very clear that if they had known Jesus, they would have known the Father, because Jesus said, “I AM HE”.

It was confirmed in the next statement of Jesus in John 8:58 58.  Jesus said unto them, “Verily,verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I AM.” Of course the religious antichrist Jews would never listen and instead took up stones to stone him because they believed that he was blaspheming God. It was the common event after his speech because of his hard teaching:

John 5:18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.

The antichrist Jews were mad at him not only because he not only broken the Sabbath, but because he said that God was his Father, thus “making himself equal with God”. Jesus Christ’s use of the title Son of man and Son of God is not just an ordinary title. Using this title is making himself equal with God, which is the same as saying “He is the God”.

That is why we don’t agree with any preacher who uses the title “Son of God” or the appointed Son of God and put it on the streamers of their church buildings. That is blasphemy. Only God made flesh can say that he is “the Son of God”. And that is Jesus Christ himself.

The antichrists.

These religious antichrist Unitarian Jews were antichrists because they were always “against Christ”.

Acts 4:26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.

Psalm 2: 2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
John 1:41 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.

“Christ” is the Greek word of the Hebrew “Messias” or ‘Messiah” which means “anointed”. Those who don’t believe in the deity of Christ are antichrists which means “against the anointed”.

1 John 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

What is antichrist? He is the one that denies the Father and the Son. Take note: the Bible did not say anti-Father and anti-Son, but used only one word “antichrist”. Because if someone is against the Son, then he is against the Father, thus antichrist. You cannot be anti-Son and then pro-Father. If you are anti-Son then you are anti-Father. Because the Father and the Son are ONE. Thus, that person who comes against the Father and the Son is called “antichrist”. The Father and the Son in ‘ONE”, that is Christ. Trinitarians use this verse against the “Oneness” people because they thought that Oneness people believes only in the Son and not in the Father, thus according to them, denying the Father and the Son. But they don’t understand. The Oneness people don’t deny the Father and the Son, but on the contrary they accept the Father and the Son, because the Father and the Son are One – in Christ. We don’t deny the Father and the Son. We believe and worship the Father and the Son, because we believe that he is Christ himself who manifested as the Father and the Son.

1 John 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

What is the spirit of antichrist? it is the spirit that confesses not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. So who is not of God? that spirit of antichrist.

2 John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.

What is a deceiver and an antichrist? it is the one who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. These people “antichrists” don’t believe that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh but just began his existence when he was born of Mary. They don’t believe that Jesus Christ existed even before he was born of Mary, and that he was just come in the flesh. He was not flesh but he was “Spirit” (John 4:24) and he was “the Word” (John 1:1-3) who was “God” himself that made “all things”. And in the fullness of time, he God was manifest in the flesh. Those who don’t believe this truth are antichrists according to the Holy Scriptures.

These religious Jews who didn’t believe in his deity were “antichrists”. According to Paul the apostle, these Jews were really antichrists or “against the Lord and against his anointed”.
2 Thessalonians 2:14 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:
15 Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:
16 Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.

Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
John the beloved said that these people called themselves Jews but actually were not, but the synagogue of Satan. They may be “Jews” according to their bloodline, but according to Paul: “For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.” (Rom. 2:28,29). The real Jew was a Jew “which is one inwardly” and not “one outwardly”.

John said in his opening chapter in his gospel, that “He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not.” (John 1:10,11). The Word (Jesus Christ) was in the world, and the world knew him not. What is that “world” that knew him not? It was not “the globe” or “planet earth”, it is a local “world”. This world was “his own”. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. What is that “his own” or “his people”? It was Israel. That world which was his own people Israel. His own, the world knew him not and received him not. But not everyone in that world rejected him. The next two verses say: “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” (John 1:12,13).

Not everyone in that world rejected his deity and his being the anointed. Remember it is only the “Jews” who rejected him and not the “all people” of the “house of Israel”. The Jews were from Jewry or Judaea.
John 7:1 After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.



The disciples of Jesus Christ were not Jews but of Galilee called the “Galilee of the Gentiles” (Mat. 4:15) and were “Galilaeans”. Only Judas Iscariot



“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” (John 1:12,13).  Not that entire world rejected Jesus Christ but there were those who received him as he was. They believed on his name (JESUS, Matt. 1:21) and he gave them power to become sons of God. They were “born of God”. These were the Israelites of the first century that believed on his name and became his disciples. See the book of Acts.
Acts 2:41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.

And then many Gentiles also believed on him.
Acts 13:48 And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.

These people – the Jews, the Greeks, the Gentiles, the Barbarians, the Scythians and the great multitudes all believed on the name of the Lord:
Revelation 7:9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;

Not all rejected God and his Christ. There were and are those who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ and are “born of God”. These people believe that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh, that God was manifest in the flesh, that the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.

Compare these three statements:

John 1:14 “And the WORD was made FLESH”
1 Timothy 3:16 “GOD was manifest in the FLESH”
1 John 4:2 “JESUS CHRIST is come in the FLESH”

The Word of God defines itself.
The Word = God = Jesus Christ.
He is the Word made flesh, God manifest in the flesh, and Jesus Christ come in the flesh.
He who denies this truth is antichrist. It is as clear as the sunshine without clouds.
The Jews who were antichrist didn’t recognize and acknowledge that God himself was among them.
“Who are Israelites…whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen” (Rom. 9:4,5)

But there were Jews and Israelites who heard the gospel and believed on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. It was the fulfillment of Prophet Joel’s prophecy:

Joel 2:32 And it shall come to pass, THAT WHOSOEVER SHALL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE DELIVERED: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

Peter said: “But THIS IS that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;…and it shall come to pass, THAT WHOSOEVER SHALL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED.” (Acts 2:16,21). Joel’s prophecy was fulfilled in the book of Acts. “For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance”. Paul confirmed it in Romans 11: 26, 27 “And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.”  The deliverer or Saviour shall come out of Sion/Zion. That is Jesus Christ. And “so all Israel shall be saved”. He saved them through the New Covenant that he made with the houses of Israel and Judah (Heb. 8:8). That is the new covenant through the blood of Christ (Heb. 12:24). Those who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ a.k.a. those who called on the name of the Lord were “saved”.

Why? Because Jesus Christ and the LORD of the Old Testament are “ONE”. Yes, God is ONE.
