    Are they still gods, Nick?  YES or NO? And why do you continue to tell lies about me, calling them “my gods” or saying I “support them”? ???

    Okay Nick,

    That is fair enough. You don't personally have to consider or call them gods at all if you don't want to. Please just don't twist my words or try to “correct” me when I DO call them gods, because I am speaking according to the scriptures.

    Why do you think that for Mike and me there would be another almighty God ???

    Are you assuming this because we never say this ,we just as the bible says that there are other gods but none is greater than God almighty and so there is only one true God that his the father of Christ his only son,all other gods are submit to him almighty is the God of gods says scriptures this is Clear

    :)  Good post.

    I just don't understand why people would fault us, or try to belittle us for speaking the very truth of the scriptures, Pierre.  It baffles me.

    (Btw, good trap in our game. I almost fell for it! :D )

    To all……….Jesus said “CLEARLY” ,FOR YOU ( YAHWEH) ARE THE “ONLY” “TRUE” GOD.

    The word GOD is a descripter, it describes a  “relationship” TO  SOMETHING or SOMEONE. That is why it says, “the LORD (YEHWEH) OUR GOD”, anyone who has or makes or believes in  another big GOD or little god’s , has no part of the “ONLY” TRUE GOD. All who do that are COMMITTING IDOLATRY.

    Where in scripture it says,  “know you not you are GOD’S”, that is given in a possessive sense, not that they were GOD’S themselves. Where people try to lie and say there are little god’s and big GOD’S in scripture is not true, for one thing all GREEK original scriptures were written in  upper case LETTERING, SO THERE IS NO WAY ANYONE CAN SAY IT MEANS, A BIG GOD OR LITTLE god’s.

    For all true believers there is ONLY  ONE TRUE GOD, all other God’s big or little they profess or believe in are false God’s IMO

     

    Peace and love to you all……………………………gene

    We know that there is one God the Father. He is the true God.

    But we also acknowledge that theos/elohim are used to describe others including idols, men, angels, Satan, and Jesus. Believe it or not, even an earthquake is described as elohim. This is reality. You can read these other theos/elohim examples in scripture for yourself. @GeneBalthrop, they are not all false theos. Even Satan is not a false theos of this age. He really is the theos of this world. This is why we have been instructed to not to love the things of this world. @mikeboll64 and @NickHassan there is one Theos the Father, we all agree on this I hope, and there are others who are described as theos, I hope we all acknowledge that. The Bible doesn’t teach a big God and little gods, but one true God and other who are like God in nature or authority.

    Is there not one who is the Devil. The Devil is Satan. He is spoken of in scripture. Yet are there not ALSO devils. Understand that there is not a contradiction in Greek here. We do not have to believe that there is a triune or multiple Devil because others are called devil, nor do we have to ignore that there are devils. Why is it that we understand the truth with the Devil and devils and struggle with God. We know that devils are not a species but describe those who are like the Devil, even a man can be called a devil, we see that with Judas. If you clearly understand the difference with THE Devil and devils, then why is there even a disagreement with The Theos and theos? Why is the Devil understood more than God?

    We should take the whole counsel of scripture. Where others besides the Father are called theos or elohim, then understand the meaning. Remember this is scripture. Do not change it to your own truth. When you take on board the whole counsel of scripture, then there is no need to argue endlessly over this and cause unnecessary division which is not the fruit of the spirit.

    We are all getting older and it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment. Let’s get things sorted.
