There is but one God, the Maker, Preserver and Ruler of all things, having in and of himself, all perfections, and being infinite in them all; and to Him all creatures owe the highest love, reverence and obedience.  As Creator He is Father to all men, but He is spiritual Father only to believers.  Genesis 1.1-2; Exodus 3.12-15; Deuteronomy 6.4; Jeremiah 10.1-16; Matthew 6.5-15; Romans 8.12-14; Ephesians 4.1-6; James 1.13-18; Revelation 4.
