The Athanasian Creed: Third Month—Day 4

14. And yet they are not three almighties, but one almighty.

Scripture

The Lord who created the heavens, He is God.
He fashioned and made the earth and established it;
He did not create it to be empty
But formed it to be inhabited.
He is the Lord, and there is no other. (Isaiah 45:18)
