God
is a Spirit: and they that
worship him must worship him in
spirit and in truth (John 4:24).
God
is not a man, that he should
lie; neither the son of man, that
he should repent: hath he said,
and shall he not do it? Or
hath he spoken, and shall not make
it good? (Num. 23:19).
And
also the Strength of Israel [i.e.,
the Creator] will not lie nor repent:
for he is not a man, that
he should repent (1 Sam. 15:29).
For
he [the Creator] is
not a man, as I am, that I
should answer him, and we
should come together in judgment
(Job 9:32).
I
will not execute the fierceness
of mine anger, I will not return
to destroy Ephraim: for I am
God, and not man; the Holy One
in the midst of thee: and I will
not enter into the city (Hos. 11:9).
Now
unto the King eternal, immortal,
invisible, the only wise God, be
honour and glory for ever and ever.
Amen (1 Tim. 1:17).
Who
[the Father’s dear Son] is the image
of the invisible God, the firstborn
of every creature (Col. 1:15).
No
man hath seen God at any time; the
only begotten Son, which is in the
bosom of the Father, he hath declared
him (John 1:18).
He
that loveth not knoweth not God;
for God is love (1 John 4:8).
And
we have known and believed the love
that God hath to us. God is love;
and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth
in God, and God in him (1 John 4:16).
This
then is the message which we have
heard of him, and declare unto you
that God is light, and in him is
no darkness at all (1 John 1:5).

Hear,
O Israel: The LORD [Yahweh] our
God is one LORD [Yahweh]:
And thou shalt love the LORD [Yahweh]
thy God with all thine heart, and
with all thy soul, and with all
thy might (Deut. 6:4, 5).
And
one of the scribes came, and having
heard them reasoning together, and
perceiving that he had answered
them well, asked him, Which is the
first commandment of all?
And
Jesus answered him, The first of
all the commandments is, Hear, O
Israel; The Lord our God is one
Lord:
And
thou shalt love the Lord 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.
And
the second is like, namely this,
Thou shalt love thy neighbour as
thyself. There is none other commandment
greater than these.
And
the scribe said unto him, Well,
Master, thou hast said the truth:
for there is one God; and there
is none other but he (Mark 12:28-32)
But
to 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 by him (1 Cor.
8:6)
One
God and Father of all, who is
above all, and through all,
and in you all (Eph. 4:6).
For
there is one God, and one
mediator between God and men, the
man Christ Jesus (1 Tim. 2:5).
Thou
believest that there is one God;
thou doest well: the devils also
believe, and tremble (Jam. 2:19).
And
[Solomon] said, O LORD [Yahweh]
God of Israel, there is no
God like thee in the heaven, nor
in the earth; which keepest covenant,
and shewest mercy unto thy
servants, that walk before thee
with all their hearts (2 Chron.
6:14)
Thus
saith the LORD [Yahweh] the King
of Israel, and his redeemer the
LORD [Yahweh] of hosts; I am
the first, and I am the last;
and beside me there is no
God (Isa. 44:6)
I
am the LORD [Yahweh], and
there is none else, there
is no God beside me: I girded
thee, though thou hast not known
me (Isa. 45:5)
Tell
ye, and bring them near;
yea, let them take counsel together:
who hath declared this from ancient
time? who hath told it from
that time? have not I the
LORD [Yahweh]? and there is
no God else beside me; a just God
and a Saviour; there is none
beside me (Isa. 45:21)
Yet
I am the LORD [Yahweh] thy
God from the land of Egypt, and
thou shalt know no god but me: for
there is no saviour beside
me (Hos. 13:4)
And
God spake all these words, saying,
I
am the LORD [Yahweh] thy
God, which have brought thee out
of the land of Egypt, out of the
house of bondage.
Thou
shalt have no other gods before
me.
Thou
shalt not make unto thee any graven
image, or any likeness of any
thing that is in heaven above,
or that is in the earth beneath,
or that is in the water under
the earth:
Thou
shalt not bow down thyself to them,
nor serve them: for I the LORD [Yahweh]
thy God am a jealous God,
visiting the iniquity of the fathers
upon the children unto the third
and fourth generation of
them that hate me;
And
shewing mercy unto thousands of
them that love me, and keep my commandments
(Exod. 20:1-6)
And
in all things that I have said unto
you be circumspect: and make no
mention of the name of other gods,
neither let it be heard out of thy
mouth (Exod. 23:13)
