Many New Age People and some charismatics (I regret to say, being one myself!) interpret "You are gods" as "us." One popular tv preacher said we are all "little gods" (but who it was I don't recall; I heard whoever it was on audio on Hank Hanegraaff That would be me , interpreting "you are gods" as...

Rick, thank you for the reference. How does your view (that God was speaking to lesser gods in Psalm 82) square with what Jesus said? If your view is correct then I have a hard time understanding Jesus' argument. Can you expound on this, sir? This is the crux as i see it Rick , which is making sens...

This argument does not appear to be valid, since it seems to work equally well, if one could turn around in favour of the resurrection: But if this were the case, then it is not "death" that is the gain, but being present with the Lord at the moment of death. The only way that Paul could believe th...

In John 10.35 Jesus continued "If he called them gods to whom the word of God came and scripture can not be broken , do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world , You are blaspheming because I said , I am the Son of God Thanks everyone for the interesting responses re who ...

Death is "gain" because it leads to resurrection life! As far as those who die are concerned, they "gain" that wonderful life immediately upon death. For it will be the next thing of which they will be aware. But if this were the case then it is not "death" that is the gain but the resurrection of ...

We'll start with that one ---- by first finding it in Scripture. I will personally send $100 to the first person to find those exact words in Scripture ---- in any existing translation. (New translations made Paidion, i think it goes "I would be willing to be absent from the body and present with t...

Hi TK, Almost all the verses supporting "soul sleep" are found in the OT and almost all the verses supporting "absent from the body and present with the Lord" are from the NT. An important point to consider is whether or not we have a separate and distinct "inner man" that goes to be with the Lord a...

And the persecution may very well be so severe that there is a silencing of the TRUTH of Jesus Christ and His Gospel message is no longer being preached in the "institutional churches" as we know it today. And yet, the world will continue in its ways of eating, and drinking and giving in marriage.....

One other point that should be made about this verse is the last line which says, "to the glory of God the Father." It is my opinion that God would not find any "glory" in a confession from someone He was about to destroy; however, Very insightful observation Todd especially since God is love and w...
