    To all,

    I am still sticking to the teaching that Jehovah speaking to his team gods stated let us make humanity in the image and likeness of team gods.  

    Yawheh(Jehovah) has no outer likeness but those angels that visited Lot were said to look like humans.  The reverse but true statement is that humans bear the likeness of certain angels.  Yawheh has the inner likeness of righteousness and holiness and Scripture declares humanity was created upright before he went in search of many schemes.  So man was created in the image and likeness of team gods.

    Job1:6 Now there was a day when the *sons of God* came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them.

    Job2:1 Again there was a day when the *sons of God* came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them to present himself before the LORD.

    Why do you call them *gods* ?

    Peace brother..

    Hi Kerwin,

    I echo Abe's question.
    Since when did you believe that many “Gods” were with 'God'? Is it since your conversations with another? Has another been leading you astray?

    If the Bible tells me that God alone created the heavens and the earth, and that no other God was with him, then I believe that, despite what others may say.
    I see no problem with believing that the Almighty GOD, YHVH, ALONE, through his word and his spirit created.
    I cannot explain the “us” and the “our” – but then we are not God, are we.

    Genesis 3
    5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

    22 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil.

    Perhaps it is scripture that has been leading Kerwin astray. :)

    Hi Mike,

    “One of US” is not in the Hebrew.
    It is simply “from”.

    Behold the man has become one from knowing God and evil.

    You could be right.
    But where does the Holy Spirit fit in with that? Did you say that the seven make up the one?

    Kerwin,

    As you quoted from a Jewish Bible, this is from “Outreach Judaism” and the understanding of the word “Elohim” to them.

    “There is a fundamental principal regarding the many names of the Almighty as they appear in the Torah – they are exalted descriptions of the God of Israel. The name Elohim, which is not an exception to this rule, comes from the Hebrew root el, which means “might” or “power.” This common root appears in a variety of words throughout the Jewish Scriptures. For example, we find this word used in the famous opening words to Psalm 29,    (havu la'donai b'nai eylim). This chapter is well known because this Psalm is joyously sung in every synagogue as the Torah scroll is returned into the ark following a congregational reading. What do these noble words mean?

    “Ascribe to the Lord, O sons of the mighty. Ascribe to the Lord glory and strength” (Psalm 29:1)

    With these passages in mind, we have a deeper understanding of the name Elohim. The pagan mind ascribed a separate and distinct god for each of the powers in the world which it observed, and on whom it depended. The nations gazed upon the life-giving and perplexing energy emanating from the sun and the rain, and they worshiped the many gods who they believed controlled these forces. They craved an abundant harvest and boundless fertility, and they venerated each god who they believed governed each of these abodes. The ancients were mystified by the powers which sustained them and awestruck by the forces that terrified them, and venerated each with elaborate rituals and oftentimes gruesome rites in order to “appease the gods.”
    The Torah conveys a radically different message for mankind. All the life-sustaining forces in the universe, all the power that man can behold, emanate from the One Master of the world, One Creator of the universe – the Lord of Hosts is His name. This grand message is contained in the name of God, Elohim. All the forces of the world emerged from the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Therefore, the God of Israel alone – Elohim – is worthy of our worship and devotion.

    It is for this reason that the Torah employs the word Elohim almost exclusively as the name of God throughout the first two chapters of Genesis. In these opening passages of the Book of Genesis, the Almighty is creating all the powers and forces which stir and sustain the universe.

    Therefore, the nation of Israel, to whom God revealed Himself at the foot of Mount Sinai, knew nothing about a plurality of persons in the godhead. No fact could be more firmly established once all of our sacred literature – both canonical and rabbinical – is used as our eternal guide. This matter is indisputable.”

    © Notes
    1 tn The particle הֵן (hen) introduces a foundational clause, usually beginning with “since, because, now.”
    2 sn The man has become like one of us. See the notes on Gen 1:26 and 3:5.
    3 tn The infinitive explains in what way the man had become like God: “knowing good and evil.”
    4 tn Heb “and now, lest he stretch forth.” Following the foundational clause, this clause forms the main point. It is introduced with the particle פֶּן (pen) which normally introduces a negative purpose, “lest….” The construction is elliptical; something must be done lest the man stretch forth his hand. The translation interprets the point intended.

    SO YOU ARE NOT CREATED BY GOD ,RIGHT ??? I KNOW I AM BUT HE DID IT THROUGH MI MOM AND DAD ,JUST AS ADAM WAS THE FIRST ONE WITH EVE TO AND THROUGH THEM ALL HUMANITY WAS CREATED ,JUST LIKE GOD CREATED ALL THE LIVING CREATURES AND “LET THEM REPRODUCE ACCORDING TO THEIR KIND” RIGHT ???

    Quote
    Eternal life is knowing the Father (who is “The only True God”) and the Son.

    that is right ; but were do you learn to know the father and the son ??? is it through your own interpretation of the scriptures or through the scriptures as they are given ???

    many will say that they know God and the son but will not be recognized as part of the son or the father .
