Bible Question:
When the Jews said Jesus made himself God, they are saying that Jesus claimed to be God Almighty. My question is why did Jesus refer to Psalms 82, which is talking about judges, to defend a charge that he was God Almighty? My second question does John 10:34-35 give men the right to call themselves "little gods"? |
Bible Answer: H mincc, John 10:33, NKJ, "...because You, being a Man, make Yourself /God." Psalm 82:1, NASB, "God takes His stand in His/ own congregation; He judges in the midst of the rulers." Please comment on my question for this date, 06-02-2004. From the heart, Ray |
