""""You shall have no other gods before me""" WTF GOD ADMITS OTHER GODS EXIST??

Watch that video above op, many give their attention to their gods...but they are not the most high. Did you know OP, that many peoples god is mammon or money? Like the video above, that is eye-dolls they give their undivided attention to more than anything. Their idols are made of wood too or metal and have no life in them. Actually the awards ceremony was ancient egyptian idol worship too. Nothing is new under the sun. God was talking to you...put nothing before him, but you have that choice.

He means idols. People can be their own gods. It doesn't mean they are God

You do know that there's a difference between god and God right? Lord and lord? King and king? I believe you just whipped this out for attention, because even the biggest atheist knows just what GOD is talking about. If you spent more time, you'd clearly see that.

(KJV)1 Timothy 6:14-16
That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:

[15] Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

[16] Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.

Here's where to start.

(KJV)Isaiah 59:2
But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.

Actually, let's go further shall we?


If you really take the time to think about it, it makes perfect sense why God is a Spirit and not visible. If Father was visible, it would kind of ruin free will and worshipping Him out of love and respect. If everyone saw God, they would just worship Him. However, this worship wouldn't be by true love, but rather by submission. Not only that, but there would be no faith. Serving God when He is unseen truly tests our heart and obedience. To live in a world full of evil, but willingly choose to reject those things, in order to love and serve your Creator, in which you cannot see (although He can be heard, felt and dwell within you). THAT'S the love that Father is looking for, from His creation. THAT separates the haves from the have nots. To add, although everything around us is a sign of God's existence, Father gave us two representations of Him. In the heavens, we have air. Cannot be seen, but is heard and felt and without it, all life would cease to exist. In the earth itself, we have water. Clear, with no shape and without water, all life would cease to exist. Therefore God is speaking to all of us and these are a testament that it is God Who gives life to all and without Him, life does not exist, for He is Life.


Hebrews 11:1 KJV

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.


Hebrews 11:6 KJV

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.


John 20:29 KJV

Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.


John 1:1-4 KJV

1) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

2) The same was in the beginning with God.

3) All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

4) In him was life; and the life was the light of men.


John 5:26 KJV

For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;


Hebrews 11:3 KJV

Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.


Acts 17:24-28 KJV

24) God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;

25) Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things;

26) And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;

27) That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:

28) For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.


Romans 1:18-23 KJV

18) For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

19) Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.

20) For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

21) Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

22) Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

23) And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.


2 Corinthians 6:14-16 KJV (To those who have the Holy Ghost)

14) Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

15) And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

16)And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.



Glory be to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob!!!

You really think God said that? Vanity is one of the seven deadly sins. Only a supremely vain deity would demand such a thing. Our creator doesn't have time for this petty bs.

The ancient record tells us that eventually the Creator chose to produce a truly unique form of life on earth. He told his heavenly Son: “Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness, and let them have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and the domestic animals and all the earth and every moving animal that is moving upon the earth.” (Genesis 1:26) Man would therefore reflect the spiritual image of his Maker, displaying His qualities. And man would be capable of taking in huge amounts of knowledge. Thus, humans could act with an intelligence surpassing that of any animal. Also, unlike the animals, man was made with a capacity to act according to his own free will, not being controlled mainly by instinct.

God needs a name I can identify with. Like Jeff or Matt. Tired of talking to someone who never identifies his self.

Is jealousy underrated?

God will not transfer to another the honor due himself. (Isa 42:8) To depart from exclusive devotion to him would incur the heat of His zealous anger. (De 4:24; 5:9; 6:15) Israel was regarded as being married to Jehovah. As a husband, Jehovah claimed exclusive devotion, loyalty, fidelity from Israel. He would be zealous, full of ardor in her behalf, in her defense. (Eze 36:5) Conversely, disobedience, going after other gods, would be adultery, thereby meriting Jehovah’s righteous anger and his jealousy for his own name.—De 32:16, 21; Eze 16:38, 42.

"You shall have no imaginary gods BUT me" is probably closer...

Hes right there are other gods....just like when god said let "us" make man in "our" image.

"""""You shall have no other gods before me""" WTF GOD ADMITS OTHER GODS EXIST??"



Do you REALLY need to have this explained to you?

Really??

You are one DUMB SOB.

He's talking about things that people worship, like pieces of wood, pieces of stone, pieces of metal.......idols.

Why do people who do not read and understand the bible make these type of comments and speak as if they know what they are talking about. If you read the bible then you would understand that people make gods (idols) and worship them. Don't speak with authority on a subject you know NOTHING about.

If you were Moses, you'd really ask God why he couldn't do things himself? You wouldn't survive two seconds in the Lord's presence, in fact you'd be looking for a rock to crawl under.

My translation says 'No other Gods in front of my face'. In other words 'no other gods, period'.

True and He even says coveting is idolatry, making a god of that which you covet.

3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them:

why dont you post it like this?

the Jews had other gods they worshipped (such as Baal, Moloch, and others) and the priests of Jehovah, always trying to get the Jews to worship only their god, had to acknowledge those other gods. so they said Jehovah was the god above all the other gods, and a "jealous god".

the christians didn't have that problem. they were a new offshoot from Judaism, and they didn't have an existing body of tribesmen to woo. so they could say from the start "I am the only god, there are no other gods". they already had the monopoly among adherents. it was a cult.

that is where and why God changed his claims.

and, as you can see, "God" is made up.

El, Elohim is what I find as well as the restored names when I read 'The Scriptures'

In Genesis, if God is all seeing, why can't God find Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden?

GODS - Gold, Oil, Drugs, Sex (kinda what most worship today)

And for Americans, what specific God is mentioned in the first paragraph of the Declaration of Independence?
(and what Law is referenced?)

Where is that translation from? The Strong's Concordance has no translation assigned to the word in that exact phrase.

Demons posed as gods. Lower case gods.

You act like God really said that.

Does that sound like a really really really intelligent being?

The bible is bs, but for the sake of argument. Abraham basically questioned god (lower case intended), when he bargained with him getting him from fifty all the way down to 10 righteous souls perchance, to keep god from destroying Sodom. Didn't seem like he was scared to question god...(who by the way is not supposed to have been seen by any man???????).'course I believe that was just a plain ol' Anunnaki skin-and-bones ET causing trouble for his siblings through manipulation of humans that didn't know any better.

sorry,quote was a little wrong- [link to wol.jw.org]

Which god?

Shut the fuck up you stupid beast spreading stupid shit that does not even mean anything. Minimum age required on GLP is 13.
