Deuteronomy 6: 4 - 5 or THE SHEMA is the prayer and pronouncement of God's people that we acknowledge His Lordship and Unity. There are not many gods, nor are there many ways to God. Jesus Christ, the Son of God and God Himself is the True and Living Way!
Join us each Sunday as we proclaim together SHEMA YISRAEL ADONAI ELOHEINU ADONAI ECHAD - Hear, O Israel, The Lord is our God, the Lord is One!

Amen! Indeed GOD IS ONE!

1) Jesus is indeed
the Son of the ONE GOD.
He quoted the Shema (Deut 6.4ff) as the foremost commandment.
See Mark 12.28ff.
Jesus in contrast, identified his Father
as the only true GOD & the only GOD
[John 17.3, 5.44]
So Jesus is not GOD himself, but rather, he is the Son of the ONE GOD, the Son of the Father.
[2 John 3]
2) Also the ONE GOD proclaimed:
Deu 4:15-16
Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day that YAHWEH spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire:
16 Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
That then, should be another obvious indicator that Jesus is NOT GOD,
but rather:
(1 Tim 2:5) For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men,
the man Christ Jesus;

Thank you for your comment. However, you assessment that Jesus is not God is inacurate. He is fully God. The One and only True God with the Father and The Spirit.
