The Unity of Our Faith

Throughout all of scripture we find affirmed unity of God’s being and His revelation. The doctrines of our faith are necessary aspects of one another so that we cannot assert that any one doctrine takes priority over any other. Theologians speak of the simplicity of God’s being, or God’s unity of simplicity; this means that no aspect of God is prior to any other aspect. We cannot speak of God’s sovereignty as more important than His work as a creator or that redemption takes priority over anything else. All of God’s being and all of God’s work have a unity to them. the
