Isaiah 44:6 states: “I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.” James 2:19 states, “Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well:” In the book of John, we can read John quote Jesus saying,” I and the Father are one.” Jesus also preached the Holy Spirit of being part of the Godhead, “"And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever; the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not behold Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you, and will be in you." ... "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him, and make Our abode with him." (John 14:16-17, 23).

The natural world was created by God. Romans 1:20 states that that through the creation of the earth you can see God’s invisible attributes, eternal power, and divine nature.

Modern Christians believe that this one god handmade all of the earth and the people in it. Gnostics, however, believe that there are two different Gods. Some Gnostics say that there is a Creator God of the Old Testament who is mean and hateful and full of wrath, and then they say there is the New Testament God who is kind and forgiving (28). Orthodox Christians will argue that there is only one God who brings both joy and pain, but those who believe in the gnostic gospels wonder why such a nice god would create such a terrible world for all humans to live in. To them, if there is a good side to the world and a bad side to the world, then there must be two gods to keep track of it all.
This story is an example of creatio ex nihilo. It shows how God created everything out of nothing. God is portrayed as being omnipotent because whatever he says basically happens. In the Bible, each time God made something, it would ‘God said’; this shows how powerful he is. Because he used to say it and it would just happen.
God created us, man in his image, the Christian worldview is man was created by God's very own hands. (Genesis 1:27) Christian believe man is created with a body, and living soul, thus making man different from all living things God created. This is a distinct identity, God states man is one of its kind, (Genesis 2:7), and man is to rule over the fish, birds, and over all living creatures that moves on the ground.

Adherents believe meaning can be found in their response to evil and suffering. A principal belief of Christianity is that God sent his only son, Jesus Christ, as a human to model how to be truly human and to reach full potential as an adherent. Adherents believe Jesus Christ was born of the Virgin Mary through the Immaculate Conception after Angel Gabriel appeared to Mary to bring her the news. It is believed Jesus Christ was sacrificed through his crucifixion to save adherents from their sins, and
Yes, of the Gentiles also:” (Romans 3:29). Christianity is for the whole world, not just a particular class, creed or race of people. For the human identity, Paul wanted everyone to know about their salvation through Jesus Christ. The universal uniqueness, of the Jews remained and stands that they are the selected people of God, therefore, as such that they are bound to a greater standard under the law. ” By works of the law no human being will be justified in His sight” (Piper,
According to the Mormons, The Doctrine and Covenants is the record of heavenly revelations provided to Joseph Smith during his efforts as leader of the Mormon Church. But when one compares the Book of Mormon with the Doctrine and Covenants there is a problem of internal logical consistency. While both maintain divine inspiration, they do not synchronize. The
This scripture shows that Jesus is the creator of the universe, mankind and the things of nature. In the 21st century many religions do not acknowledge Jesus as Saviour of the world. They have rejected the atoning sacrifice of our Lord as the Lamb of God. For example, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, and many other religions are not accepting Jesus as Saviour for the remission of their sins. Jesus and all His disciples warned the Church.
Overall the Puritans were a religious group with a core of specific beliefs that are at the essence of the Puritan Faith. Those two beliefs are the belief that man is predestined or divided into two groups, the damned and the elect. The second core belief is that of free grace versus a doctrine of works.
