ws, your last post is totally irrelevant to the previous posts in the threads. Most will grant that in the verses you quoted, Jesus refers to men who set themselves up as Gods. So what?

Logic escapes your grasp again.

I would suggest you try finding a bona fide Jewish Hebrew scholar who has gone on record as interpreting elohim as an acknowledgement of actual living beings qualified as gods like their god Jehovah, sitting equal to Him in some cosmic courtroom. I am not aware of any. This whole discussion is over whether the Bible, especially the KJV, teaches such a thing. It isn't there. Pantheists use poor exegesis to make that case. There is only one God, but many false, non-living, powerless, fruitless gods men adore.
I never claimed what you appear to claim. I have maintained the narrow use of the word Elohim as to not once refer to a group of deity other than the triune godhead, which is the One God. Pantheists here take it too far, that the word gives place for the existence of many gods, as in Greek mythology. There are none. They are all objects of fantasy. The true God is reality.

Again and again you take the attitude that your ignorance of opposing scholarship has some significance in favour of your viewpoint - again and again we show that in fact you are simply ignorant. If only you would do more studying and less pronouncing, you might get somewhere.
What dedicated Jewish Hebrew scholar would openly accept the trinity? You think you have uncovered something? Idiotic. I've tried to be civil, but that is really impossible with people as ignorant, moronic as yourself about these matters. Obviously you will ignore truth no matter how tall it is. The Bible has you well pegged as a fool. Go hug your idols, your tin gods. The living God loved you enough to share the blood of His Son to remit your sins. I find no point in discussion with your ilk. It is actually sin for me to continue with you past this point, having to depart from the company of a fool.

I returned the insults back about word for word collectively, not accepting their gifts. It's the language they understand. They relate to those words, Administrator. Those words are very high on their vocabulary, common on almost all evolutionist-dominated forums, emerging when they are faced down, frustrated. I note that you again passed on comment on THEIR name-calling and overt personal insults. It isn't proper to just let it go by then jump on me, AGAIN chastised for dropping to their pack level. Is it because you expect more of me? They can't help themselves, being poor sinners? Whatever your agenda is, I won't be part of it.
I've made as much comment here in this website as I intended, finding the whole thing quite fruitless past this point. I didn't come here hoping to change minds. I came to point out their reprobate thinking that other Christians will know to avoid their ideas. Now they can see the truth about people who will accept ANYTHING except Jesus Christ, be it atheism, or polytheism, mythology, ANYTHING but the very widely held truth of the gospel of Christ. A sane person should ask why. Why the concerted opposition to the Son of God, excluding NO other religious claim? It's pages of the Bible being re-lived over and over. Amazing. Bye.
