The Bible teaches that there is only one God, the God of Israel, who is the God of all humanity.
The God of Israel is identified throughout Scripture as the one true God, encapsulated in the phrase 'I am that I am' from Exodus 3:14. This declaration signifies His eternal existence and sovereign nature. As recorded in Isaiah 45:5, He states, 'I am the Lord, and there is none else; there is no God beside me.' This underscores the monotheistic reality of the Bible, emphasizing that the God of Israel is the sole deity worthy of worship, not just among Jews but across all nations. Additionally, 1 Timothy 2:5 affirms that 'there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,' reaffirming the unity and exclusivity of God as central in the faith of both Jews and Gentiles.
