Are There Many Gods or One? From ancient times to the present, humanity has wrestled with the question: are there many gods or one? The Bible gives a definitive answer: there is only one true God, who alone is worthy of worship. Yet throughout history, polytheism—the belief in many gods—has lured nations and even the people of God themselves into error. This question is not only theological but practical: what we believe about God shapes how we live, worship, and trust.

Modalism: One God, Three Roles—or a Distortion of the Trinity? Christians confess one God who eternally exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. But from the early centuries of the church, some rejected this truth and proposed an easier explanation: that God is one Person who merely appears in different forms or modes. This teaching, known as Modalism, may sound simple, but it is dangerously misleading. It strips the Trinity of its eternal relationships and empties the gospel

Sabellianism: Modalism Revived in Oneness Pentecostalism. False teachings rarely die; they recycle themselves in new clothes. What the early church called Sabellianism or Modalism is now repackaged in modern Pentecostal Oneness movements. Both reject the biblical Trinity, claiming that Father, Son, and Spirit are not distinct Persons but only different manifestations of the one God. This distortion robs the gospel of its depth and misrepresents the God who saves.

The Trinity: The God Who Is Three-in-One. The doctrine of the Trinity stands as one of the central mysteries of the Christian faith. It is not a philosophical abstraction but the reality of God as revealed in Scripture: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — three distinct persons, yet one God. The term Trinity (trias in Greek, trinitas in Latin) does not appear in the Bible, but the reality saturates both Old and New Testaments.

What The Bible Says About Baptism. For many Christians today, baptism has become little more than a symbolic ceremony—an occasion for celebration, a tradition to be checked off the list. In some churches, it is treated as an optional milestone rather than a central act of obedience.
