So, t8, the elohim/theos that men are called in Psalms did not have divine nature, yet they were called elohim/theos and meant because they were in authority. So can you show me any scripture that says that believers will be called theos in the future, after partaking of divine nature? Can you show me any scripture where Jesus or His apostles…[Read more]

bump for t8

Quote (mikeboll64 @ Sep. 23 2011,16:17)Kathi,Plural of majesty?Mike,I think it is possible that the writer made a word plural for emphasis or greatness, and they also pluralized a word to express more than one. I think that the verses about kings can mean to include princes also as I have pointed out previously. I still need to learn a ton more…[Read more]

Mike,Believing in many gods is polytheism.  Believing in and acknowledging the fact that other people 'believe in' other gods is two different things.  So, you 'acknowledge' that there are many gods, you only 'believe in' God the Father, god the Son, and god the satan.  Which still describes you as a polytheist…even if you only believe in God th…[Read more]

Mike,you said:Quote And I find it both appalling and ridiculous that the one member on HN who proudly admits her WORSHIP of TWO completely separate Gods Most High would drag me down into her polytheistic mire.The two and their Spirit are ONE..one in unity. Do you see how you only mentioned part of what I admit and leave off the 'are ONE' part.…[Read more]

Mike,John 6:57Just as the living Father sent me (aorist tense) and I live (present tense) because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live (future tense) because of me.Jesus is talking about His present life…His present life as the man. The present man that He is, is alive because of the Father. The live that people get is eternal…[Read more]

polytheism: The worship of or belief in more than one god. You believe in one that is God AND one that is a god, Jesus, and one that is a god, satan.

Mike,The Trinitarians make their three Gods into only One…what? In your opinion…one what? One Godhead or one person?What say you?

Quote (Lightenup @ Sep. 22 2011,21:18)t8,Quote “Ye are theos, ye are all sons of the Most High God.”The Psalmist said it, Jesus endorsed it, now it is up to you to accept that it is true, and then figure out what it means.Tell me why you think that those that were told 'ye are theos' back in Psalms were told that and Paul and Barnabas were not…[Read more]

t8,Here you go, the right thread for my question to you:Tell me why you think that those that were told 'ye are theos' back in Psalms were told that, and Paul and Barnabas were not told that they were theos.

No t8, they wouldn't make the 'CUT.' Only the theos who created the heavens and the earth who always had deity nature qualify.

Mike,Quote John 6:57Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me.This life that Jesus speaks of was the life of the flesh. The Son was certainly alive before He was incarnated and that life was without beginning.

The church.

t8,Quote “Ye are theos, ye are all sons of the Most High God.”The Psalmist said it, Jesus endorsed it, now it is up to you to accept that it is true, and then figure out what it means.Tell me why you think that those that were told 'ye are theos' back in Psalms were told that and Paul and Barnabas were not told that they were theos.

Mike,you said:Quote At least the Trinitarians realized how wrong this would be and try to confusingly make their three Gods into only One, in keeping with scripture.The Trinitarians make their three Gods into only One…what?

t8,Why the 'B' in 'Compound Unity Being (CUB)?'I am not saying that the Father and the Son make one being. Maybe your confusion here has led to your unwarranted judgements.I wish you the best also and hope for unity in truth.

So t8, What is different about the theos you think you will be and the theos that Jesus is?Show me scriptures to back up your claims, thx.
