Justin Martyr emphasized the ineffability, omnipotence and impassibility of God, while Athenagoras and Theophilus focused on God's simplicity, indivisibility and universal providence. The early church fathers made extensive use of reason and philosophy in their attempt to defend Christianity in the cultured world around them. Romans 1:17: 'For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed.'.How can you say, 'Show us the Father?' Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me?' John 14:9-10: Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.John 7:16: 'My teaching is not my own.John 3:35 - 'The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands.' (John the Baptist).Where the New Testament differs from the Old Testament in its teachings about God is in its proclamation that God has chosen to reveal himself to mankind through Jesus Christ.Įspecially in the Gospel of John, it is emphasized that Jesus alone knows the Father completely and he came to help humans know God ('the Father') better: The New Testament especially emphasizes God's love for the world and his desire to save all people (Jn 3:16 Ro 5:5,5:8 Php 4:191 Jn 4:7-9). God will judge wrongdoers (Ro 2:16, 3:19).God is worthy of mankind's worship and love (Mt 6:24 Mk 11:22 Lk 2:14).

God is holy and good (Ro 3:4 Eph 4:24 Rev 4:8).

God is the creator of the world (1 Ti 4:4 Heb 3:4).

God is pure spirit (Jn 4:24 1 Jn 4:12).

there is only one God (Mk 12:29 Eph 4:6 Jas 2:19).

Like the Old Testament, the New Testament teaches: They believed in Yahweh, 'the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob,' whom the Jews worshipped as the one true God (Ac 13:32 Ro 3:29, 4:3). The authors of the New Testament took for granted the existence of the God of the Old Testament. The major theological belief that Jews and Muslims do not share - the doctrine of the Trinity - is explored in a separate article. This article explores what Christians believe about the characteristics and nature of God. Like Jews and Muslims, Christians believe one God who created the world and takes an interest in the humans who inhabit it. Holy Trinity = God the Father + God the Son + God the Holy SpiritĬhristianity is one of the three major monotheistic world religions.
