God isn't just all the "gods", Elohim, etc... Humans can also have the same powers as these. You can't separate God from people.
Elohim is plural, but this is also true:
"Hear, O Israel! The LORD our God, the LORD is One."
So God is basically the unity from which plurality is born.
I like to picture It as Life, and eventually Consciousness. Those things have a much wider scope than the individuals.
So even "Elohim" or angels are just a fraction of God. Like you and me.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1051099 Another way to explain it:
You know all the cells and the living organisms in your body, bacterias, virii, etc.
Well, they exist independantly, they can be isolated and defined. They'll fight for survival, and will try to reproduce. Those cells, bacterias, virri, are us, animals, plants, "aliens", spirits and extradimensional entities.
Now all those cells and bacterias, they live inside a body, a nicely balanced ecosystem where they all have a place. The body cannot survive without the cells constituing it, nor without the bacterias it hosts. They all have a role to play. Are they conscious of it? No, they just think they try to survive and reproduce, yet without them, the body dies.
The body, through this complexity, can become the host of a higher consciousness. He knows he is composed of individual cells, organs, limbs, and yet he can identify to it as a whole. Is the body just the sum of all it's cells? No, it's a bit more, it's the sum of all these interactions plus the consciousness of it's existence as a whole individual composed of small "animals" (cells, bacterias, virii).
Well God is this "body" and it's consciousness, and we and all things alive and animated are it's constitutive cells. We can't see this God, this "body", like the human cell can't know it's part of a human body. But we can "feel" it's existence. We even gave Him names: God, Life, Consciousness.
The same process exists for exemple to form "cultures". Humans can create cultures when a critical mass is reached. The "culture" is not like a human, and yet it is alive and evolving. Trying to survive and to reproduce. Conscious of itself in a way. But the culture could not exist without the humans.
Just because we can't see or talk to a greater intelligence we are a part of doesn't mean it can't exist.
That's God. It's actually simple as a concept, but tons of religious texts and people opinions make it more complex than that. But we don't need to make it complicated. That's God, the "intelligence" that is born from all the interactions in the Universe. You don't have to believe it, but the body doesn't care if the cell doesn't believe it's part of a body.
