===The Meaning of ‘One God’'===

God, who expresses Himself as “us,” exists as God the Father and God the Mother. ''Elohim'', the original Hebrew word for God, is also a plural noun meaning ''Gods'', implying that God is more than one.

===Work of Redemption===

*'''Jehovah'''

In the Old Testament times, Jehovah God became the redeemer of the Israelites. The event where the work of the Redeemer is clearly revealed in the Old Testament times is the book of [[Exodus]]. God commanded the Israelites to slaughter lambs so that they could celebrate the [[Passover]] and be liberated from the slavery in Egypt. As a result, the Israelites were saved from the disaster that fell on Egypt and were liberated from Egypt.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus+12%3A5-13&version=NIV |title=Exodus 12:5–13|quote= }}</ref>
