09/12/23 BEWARE OF WORLDLY WISE

When a "Bible teacher" interprets Scripture according to the pagan beliefs of Biblical times, rather than accept the fact that the Bible is God's word given by the Holy Spirit through Divinely chosen and guided prophets, then you are being led astray by someone who thinks that he, himself, is smarter, wiser, more knowledgeable than God.

If Bezaleel, himself changes the design of God, making it more appealing or more understandable, then the revelation of God will be lost. Sometimes I encounter people who are gifted in speaking, academics, music, visual artistry, who misrepresent the truth of God in favor of an unenlightened belief system.

I am seeing this in a very appealing series of podcasts and Bible Study animations, by highly educated and talented communicators, as they misrepresent the Biblical truth concerning the fact of only one God and His Tri-Unity through a very impressive project. You better be choosy concerning the people to whom you listen and from whom you learn. 

Let me briefly state a vital truth.
Though the Hebrew word, "Elohim" is a plural form of the root word for "G(g)od," Elohim is used in reference to the only true and living God 2300 times in the Old Testament. A simple but careful study shows that this use of Elohim indicates God in Three Persons.

"Elohim" is also used in reference to, idols, men, angels, demons and human leaders approximately 700 times, indicating authority and power in spiritual beings. 

There is only one, uncreated, all powerful, all knowing, creator, true and living God, and He is God by nature (character, attributes, power, eternity), whereas others who are sometimes referred to as "elohim," are merely angels, demons or human beings who have been given the place of leadership and influence.

The Bible makes it clear that there is only one God, there has only been one God and there will never be another God. All others who are called, "elohim" are created and limited beings. Some of these spiritual creatures have been Divinely appointed to a place of dignity and leadership, and others have corrupted their God given position in an attempt to usurp the only true God.

God is not one among others, He alone is God.
God is not comparatively supreme, He is uniquely supreme.
God is not in a category with other gods, He is the only God.
