The Apostolic Distinctives are what make us different from others. These distinctive qualities are founded on the Apostles Teachings. The subject of One God is exhaustive in scripture and I do not attempt here to

answer all questions that arise. These are verses that I meditate on.

Who do you say I am?

Matthew 16:13-19

First: THE FOUNDATION

Ephesians 2:20

Psalms 11:3

The foundations are the rock solid ____________ that will ______________. It is how we establish the true doctrine of God. Jesus tells us in the parable in Matthew 7:24-27 that a ______________ must stand.

Remember: Jesus wrote no ____________ himself. He relied completely upon the _______________.

The uttermost parts can only mean the _________________:

That is why we read:

Acts 2:41-42

So that brings us to the ___________ Doctrine. What do the Apostles say about ______________? We know that Peter received a ______________ from God when he was given the

keys.

Other descriptions of the way the Apostles see Him:

Our God is ONE!

Some people think they know more than God but less than the devil!

James 2:19

Every Old Testament believer knew this verse:

Deuteronomy 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord:

Isaiah 43:11

Luke 2:11

We build on the prophets:

Isaiah 9:6

Discount the “_______________” and you lose the “son is given” as well!

Colossians 2:9

2 Corinthians 5:19

1 Timothy 3:16

John 14:6-9
