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.

How is my local church affiliated with the Assemblies of God?
Within the fellowship of the Assemblies of God there are two classifications of churches - General Council affiliated churches and district affiliated churches. General Council affiliated churches enjoy full autonomy, having developed to the point of where they are self-governing and self-supporting. These fundamental principles have been catalysts for growth in the Fellowship. District affiliated churches are those which have not yet developed to the point where they qualify for full autonomy. All assemblies are required to adhere to the Statement of Fundamental Truths and a biblical pattern of conduct. Learn More
What distinguishes the Assemblies of God from other Christian groups?
The Assemblies of God is an evangelic protestant fellowship that believes God exists in three persons -- the Father, Son (Jesus), and Holy Spirit. The most definitive identification of the Assemblies of God is Pentecostal. Just as it was founded in 1914, the Fellowship remains a full gospel church—one where the fullness of the Holy Spirit is welcomed, nurtured, and taught. This includes speaking in tongues as the initial evidence of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Other manifestations of the Holy Spirit embraced by the church include: messages in tongues with interpretations, prophecies, word of knowledge, and the complete gifts and fruit of the Holy Spirit as indicated in the Bible. Among Pentecostal churches—the Assemblies of God is largest worldwide with over 52 million constituents.
