One God

The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Deuteronomy 6:4

The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord ofheaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. Acts 17:24 NIV

"How many gods are there in the world?" one of my students asked this week.

"One," I replied.

"Which one?" he asked.

"The One True God," I said. "Jehovah."

He just looked at me.

"The God of the Bible," I said.

"Oh."
