Imad Shehadeh has provided a thorough biblical, theological, and philosophical presentation of the nature and attributes of God. The two volumes reflect careful scholarship as well as a well-reasoned presentation. He is both fair and faithful in setting forth the God of the Bible.

In this work, Dr Imad Shehadeh introduces a topic of interest to any serious reader of Christian theology or other epistemological or philosophical sciences that are concerned with the nature of God. This is a mustread and deserves re-reading and serious study of all its pages. It will impose a mandatory study by any Christian theologian. This work deserves to be a model for influential theological research in its surroundings. Indeed, according to the author’s introductory word, it is “a journey of reflection and discovery of the true and eternal nature of God.”

The appeal of this work to the believer in Oneness in Trinity is to cease from viewing the Trinity as a problem to be solved. This is a call to see the Trinity as a beauty to be continually discovered and enjoyed. The appeal of this book to adherents of Absolute Oneness is to begin the journey of trust in the perfection, equality and harmony of all God’s attributes. This is a very valuable work. People interacting with “Absolute Oneness” need to rejoice in the Trinity rather than to fear trying to explain it. This will greatly help many people, and will bring much glory to Father, Son and Holy Spirit!

Imad Shehadeh has written an excellent primer on perhaps the most misunderstood teaching of the Christian faith – the biblical doctrine of the trinity. What does it mean to say that the one God is triune? How does this unique understanding of God’s very nature differ from other monotheistic views? Why is it vital to grasp the difference? For Christians, Dr Shehadeh’s readable and thoroughly biblical treatment will deepen and inspire them, not to mention alert them to and guard them from, all too common errors. For non-Christians, this book will usher them to the wondrous beauty and power of the triune vision of God that is the beating heart of the Christian faith.

God With Us and Without Us is a foundation stone added to theological research known by Dr Imad Shehadeh. Although much has been written in this area over the years, what distinguishes this work is that it exposes the predicament of non-trinitarian systems in comprehensiveness of research, accuracy of exegesis, use of the original languages of the Bible, and richness of illustrations and tables that aid learner and teacher to address the doctrine of the Trinity. It also reveals the beauty and power of Trinity that leads to a deeper worship of the true God.

Dr Imad Shehadeh has journeyed in an expedition through the pages of the Bible to gather everything he could in order to draw a clear picture of the magnificence, awe, and uniqueness of God’s Oneness in Trinity, and produced this precious work.
