EL-Bethel Apostolic Church of God

One God:

     We believe in the Eternal and Absolute Oneness of God and beside Him there is no God. He alone is the quality and state of being One, singleness. The infinite Oneness of God is the condition of being undivided, whole and complete within Himself. Oneness is the doctrine and belief that there is only One God and besides the One True and Living God, there is no God.

Hear, O Israel, The Lord (Yahweh) our God (EL-Ohim) is One Lord (Genesis 1:1-31, 2:1-25, Exodus 20:1-2, Deuteronomy 6:4 and St. Mark 12:28-31). He alone is the Lord (Yahweh) thy God (EL-Ohim) and besides Him there is no God (Deuteronomy 32:39-43, 1 Kings 8:14-66 & Isaiah 43:10-15, 44:6-8, 45:18-23).

Bible :

The Sacred Scroll, the Book of the Almighty God is the Holy Bible and this SACRED SCROLL  ALONE is the WORD OF GOD, the revelation of God Himself and about Himself in written form and given unto mankind (St. Luke 24:44 & Galatians 1:1-12). The Old Testament or the Old Covenant as it is also known includes; 39 books and reveals the holiness of God in and through the righteous standard of the Law and the prophecy of God's Redeemer. The New Testament also known as the New Covenant includes, 27 books and reveals the holiness of God in and through the righteousness of his Son. The Holy Bible is and has the final authority (the power to command, enforce laws, exact obedience, determine and judge) regarding mankind and salvation, matters pertaining to the life and death and it is the final authority with regards to all spiritual, moral and doctrinal matters and commands absolute obedience because it is the very Word of God. The Bible is the inspired (God-breathed) Word of God (St. Matthew 15:6, St. John 10:35, Romans 3:4, 2 Timothy 3:16-17 & Hebrews 4:12), is inerrant (free from errors, contamination, corruption and falsehood) (St. Matthew 22:29, St. John17:17, 2 Peter 1:21 & 2 Timothy 3:16-17) and infallible (incapable of error in expounding doctrine on faith and morals) (St. John 10:35, 1 Corinthians 2:13 & 1 Thessalonians 2:13). The Bible was written over a period of 1,600 years and it is the account of at least 40 different writers who heard, seen and experienced God and yet it is one Book without contradictions. These writings are written in laws, commandments, statutes, prophecies, songs and the Incarnated WORD OF GOD and although supernaturally manifested and revealed by and through the ONE GOD, God utilized each writer and superintended this matter leaving no error and/or fallibility.
