57. Does it matter which God people believe in?

A:

At the time the Bible was written, people worshiped many different gods. Yet those who wrote the Bible said that there is only one God worth believing in. In Exodus 34:14 we read, “You must worship no other gods, but only the LORD, for he is a God who is passionate about his relationship with you.” And Acts 4:12 makes it very clear why believing in the God of the Bible matters so much: “Jesus is the only One who can save people. His name is the only power in the world that has been given to save people. We must be saved through him” (NCV).

If we really want to know God, we need to know the one real God—and his real plan to make us his friends!

How great you are, O Sovereign LORD! There is no one like you—there is no other God.

2 SAMUEL 7:22
