The podcast episode 'There is Only One' from Apostolic Lighthouse of Norwalk presents a theological argument centered on the absolute oneness of God, rejecting the traditional doctrine of the Trinity. The speaker traces the foundation of this belief to the Old Testament, emphasizing Deuteronomy 6:4 and Isaiah 44:6, which declare that there is one Lord and no other God. He argues that the concept of the Trinity—three co-equal, co-existent persons in one God—was not established until the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD and was influenced by political and cultural forces under Emperor Constantine. The host contends that the Bible consistently portrays God as a singular, indivisible spirit who became incarnate in Jesus Christ, not as a pre-existing 'Son' but as the Word of God made flesh. He uses scriptural evidence such as Matthew 1:18 (where the Holy Spirit is the father of Jesus), John 1:14 (the Word became flesh), and 1 Timothy 2:5 (one God, one mediator) to support the view that Jesus is the visible manifestation of the invisible God, not a separate person within a Trinity. The episode concludes with a vision of heaven in Revelation 21–22, where the throne is shared by God and the Lamb, affirming that despite the glorified humanity of Christ, there remains only one God. The message calls listeners to worship the one true God, not a trinity of persons.
There is only one God—singular, indivisible, and eternal—consistent throughout both Old and New Testaments.
The doctrine of the Trinity was not taught by the apostles and was formally established centuries after Christ, influenced by political and cultural forces.
Jesus Christ is not a pre-existent 'Son' but the incarnate Word of God, who became flesh at Bethlehem and is the full manifestation of God in human form.
The titles 'Father', 'Son', and 'Holy Ghost' refer to divine manifestations or roles, not three separate persons within God.
God's oneness is affirmed in key passages like Deuteronomy 6:4, Isaiah 44:6, and Revelation 22:3, where the throne is shared by God and the Lamb, yet still represents one God.
