One Creator Revealed: The Gospel's Message
The Gospel justifies the concept of the one God through a clearly formulated teaching that revelation and salvation are given by the One Creator, who is the source of all existence. In particular, it states that the teaching was proclaimed both in the Old Testament revelation and through the personal revelation of Christ, who is the manifestation of the One God in the form of the Son of God. This approach is demonstrated by the following quote:"They all preached to us of the One God, the Creator of heaven and earth, as revealed by the law and the prophets, and of the One Christ, the Son of God; and whoever does not agree with them, despises the Lord's adherents, despises even the Lord Christ himself, despises the Father, and is condemned by his own doing, opposing his own salvation, as all heretics do" (source: link txt).Thus, the Gospel not only traces back to the Old Testament understanding of Divinity as the sole Creator, but also affirms that through the message of Christ the divine plan of salvation is revealed. Additionally, it is noted that the very word “Gospel,” meaning “Good News,” signifies the saving power of the One God, whose salvific action is attested by all four gospels, conveying Christ’s teaching about the unity of God and the path to humanity’s salvation:"Gospel is a Greek word. It means 'Good News' (about the saving God). This is what Christ himself called his teaching. The Gospel consists of four books—from Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—that convey Christ's teaching about the One God and his way of saving humanity" (source: link txt).In summary, these provisions underscore that the concept of the one God in the Gospel is built on a continuous tradition of revelation—from the Old Testament narrative to the fulfillment of prophecies in the person of Christ—making central the One Creator whose saving action is accessible to all believers.
