Divine Unity

Divine Unity refers to the oneness of God as expressed in the doctrine of the Trinity, emphasizing the relationship and harmony between the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, as well as the unity of believers in Christ.

The concept of Divine Unity is rooted in the Jewish understanding of God as one, as expressed in the Shema, and is further developed in the New Testament with the revelation of the Trinity, particularly in the context of early Christian communities facing various theological challenges.
