The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: -
For you are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. -
We rejoice in the fact that we are now Children Of God. But do we understand what this means?
We call God the King of the Universe. He rules over all Heaven and Earth as Creator God. ()
And we are His Children. This makes us Royalty.
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: -
When a Human has a Child the Child is Human. Every living thing brings forth after its own kind. ()
Does it not make sense that when God has a Child that that Child is a god?
Most people balk at the Blasphemy of such an idea. But listen to this verse:
I have said, You are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. -
Yes, the Word of God refers to God's Children as gods which only stands to reason because every living thing produces after its kind. ()
So, in what sense are we gods? In every sense that our Faith in the Finished Work of Christ and the implications of the New Birth with the Baptism of the Holy Spirit can Receive.
Remember that our Enemy, Satan, Steals, Kills and Destroys. He Hates the Word of God and He Hates Humanity which was created for the purpose of becoming the Children of God and thereby gods themselves.
Now, we are used to thinking of the word, god, as applying only to the Supreme Creator God. But the Word does not support this understanding.
You shall have no other gods before me. -
This Commandment makes no sense if there are no other gods in existence. Now, you may be thinking that this verse is speaking to the Worship of Idols - man-made gods. And, yes, that is part of the meaning. However, listen to this verse:
Know you not, that to whom you yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants you are to whom you obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? -
So, Satan (who is real) is a god because people believe his Lies and obey his urgings.
Likewise, when a man exercises Authority to rule over others, he acts as a god.
We are to exercise Authority given to us by our Lord Jesus Christ on this Earth and, in so doing, act as gods.
Again, Christians reject such a notion because they feel unworthy and incapable of acting as a god and even consider the concept as blasphemous.
Such a self-perception and denial of the Word and Plan of God is Rebellion under the guise of Humility.
As a result of denying our Privilege and Responsibility in Christ we have relinguished Power and Control over the Earth to Satan.
We have falsely believed that God Controls the affairs of man.
Not during this dispensation!
He has given Dominion to man and thereby made him god of the Earth. ()
It is past time for us to Understand that we are gods under the Authority of God's Word and Holy Spirit to direct the affairs of mankind. To understand this is necessary for us to accomplish the Lord's Prayer:
...Your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven... -
