McCOOK FIRST ASSEMBLY

 

 Faith in God - in life's every phase - is the foundation for the strong, supportive relationships at our church.  We see our church community as a place to worship, learn, be healed and to grow together thru His word.  It is a place to find encouragement when weathering a storm, a place to share life's blessings, a place to meet with fellow believers.

We invite you to drop by anytime.

I Believe in God

One True God

Read Deuteronomy 6:4–9

Imagine working for a company that had too many bosses. Employees would wonder which boss—or bosses—they needed to please from day to day. The workplace would be inefficient because the bosses’ orders would often contradict each other. Allegiances would develop, pitting boss against boss. Imagine confusion and disharmony on a daily basis.

That might have been what life was like for the neighbors of the Israelites. With their polytheistic beliefs, they worshipped and tried to please many gods, who often acted in disharmony with one another. Life was different for the Israelites.

Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one (Deuteronomy 6:4).

God alone created everything. He alone sustains that creation. He alone reigns supreme. The standard by which He rules is consistent and righteous. God maintained an active role in the daily activities of the Israelites. He established His presence with them. That is why the Israelites could call Him “our” God—the one, true God. And we can too!

Thought for Today: We serve one God, who manifests himself in three distinct Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
