Was it not I, the LORD?

And there is no other god besides me,

a righteous God and a Savior; there is none besides me.

Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth!

For I am God, and there is no other. Isaiah 45:21-22

And the four living creatures, each of them with six wings, are full of

eyes all around and within, and day and night they never cease to say,

“Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty,

who was and is and is to come!” Revelation 4:8

Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered

and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account. Hebrews 4:13

The gods divided responsibilities and rankings,

and they lived in specific places.
