Quote (t8 @ Dec. 06 2012,14:53)Quote (Lightenup @ Dec. 07 2012,03:45)You claim that John 10 is quoting Psalm 82 and you are correct but Psalm 82 does not say that God is speaking to men anywhere in the verse you quoted as a proof that men are called theos or even elohim.

Quote (t8 @ Dec. 06 2012,03:41)Jesus has a God and that God is my God.And all the Trinitarians said: “Same with us, BUT, Jesus is the one true God too”.And what does “yes, but” really mean?
t8,Even the Jews knew that the 'The Son of God' was equal to God. That is why they were saying that He was blaspheming and attempting to stone Him.
