• Unity of God

A term made use of to denote that there is but one God or self-existent Being. The unity of God is argued from his necessary existence, self-sufficiency; perfection, independence, and omnipotence; from the unity of design in the works of nature; and from there being no necessity of having more gods than one: but the Scriptures set it beyond all doubt, Deuteronomy 6:4 . Psalms 86:10 . Isaiah 43:10 . Mark 12:29 . John 17:3 . Romans 3:30 . 1 Corinthians 8:4; 1 Corinthians 8:6 . 1 Timothy 2:5 .
