Monotheism – There is but one God:
"Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I
am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no
savior...Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts: I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God...Ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside
me? yea, there is no God; I know not any...I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee,
though thou hast not known me:...There is no God else beside me; a just God and a Savior; there is none beside me. Look unto me,
and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth:for I am God, and there is none else.“

The Mystery...
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up
into glory.
I Timothy 3:16
![Page 81: God Understanding who and what God is](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070406/568142b8550346895daef882/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
The Mystery...
It is hard for us to understand that God could take on full humanity and still be God. We must
understand that Jesus was both fully God and not just a human filled with the power of God. He was also fully human and not just a body that 'appeared'
to be human. He had a dual nature unlike any other person in history.
...Christ had a 'Dual Nature'
![Page 82: God Understanding who and what God is](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070406/568142b8550346895daef882/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
The Mystery...
Jesus answered them, Many good works have I showed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me? The Jews answered him,
saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man,
makest thyself God.
John 10:32-33
...Christ had a 'Dual Nature'
![Page 83: God Understanding who and what God is](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070406/568142b8550346895daef882/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
The Mystery...
By understanding Christ's dual nature we can comprehend scriptures that would not make sense otherwise. When reading about Christ we often must take into account whether the passage is
referring to His humanity or His Deity (flesh or spirit). For example: As a man, Christ prayed. As
God he answered prayers.
