YOUR IDENTITY IS GOD LIKE, DON'T YOU KNOW THAT?

YOUR IDENTITY IS GOD LIKE, DON'T YOU KNOW THAT?

According to scriptures, Genesis 1:27, NIV: "So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them."

so therefore you are a god but you just don't know because you were being brainwashed by the environment as well as the society.

Another proof that even Jesus Christ said this to us as a whole, we saw that the Jews of Jesus’ day accused Him of blasphemy for claiming to be the Son of God: “Because You, being a Man, make Yourself God” (John 10:33).

His response is intriguing: “Jesus answered them, ‘Is it not written in your law [in Psalms 82:6], “I said, ‘You are gods’ ”? If He [God] called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken), do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, “You are blaspheming,” because I said, “I am the Son of God”?’” (John 10:34-36).

In other words, said Christ, “if Scripture outright called human beings gods,why are you upset when I merely state that I am God’s Son?”

Yet are human beings actually gods? What did He mean?

In Psalms 82:6, from which Jesus quoted, God says to human beings: “I said, ‘You are gods, and all of you are children of the Most High.’” The Hebrew word translated “gods” is elohim, which literally means “gods” or “mighty ones”—although it is often rendered as “God” (that is, the true God) in the Bible. That’s because, although plural in form, the word elohim is often singular in usage.

Some have argued that the word in this context should be translated “judges” (“mighty ones” being seen by some here as simply powerful human beings). But the original New Testament manuscripts translate Christ’s quotation in John 10 using the Greek word theoi —”gods.” Indeed, it is obvious that Jesus must have meant “gods.” If He had meant only “judges,” His logic would not follow. Notice: “If Scripture called them judges, why are you upset that I claim to be the Son of God?” That makes no sense. Only when the word is rendered “gods”—and understood to mean that—does Christ’s logic follow.

But, again, can human beings legitimately be referred to as gods, as Jesus said? How are we to understand this?

comment bein proclaiming His own divine identity. But He went even further, quoting a verse that tells human beings, "You are gods." Indeed, as many passages show, God is a family.
