Did you know that in both the Old and New Testament beings other than the one God are referred to as "God" or "gods"? In this first of three talks about disambiguating scriptural terms, I look at the Hebrew word elohim and the Greek word theos, each usually translated into English as "God." I also introduce a new term, "monotheosism," and distinguish this from "monotheism."
I also interact with this informative book by evangelical theologian Dr. Murray Harris. In his view, the follow seven New Testament passages refer to Jesus using forms of theos:
John 1:1
John 20:28
Romans 9:5
Titus 2:13
Hebrews 1:8
2 Peter 1:1
John 1:18
Is he right? And if he is, how does this affect how we view the Lord Jesus?
In this talk I focus on indisputable facts about the texts, avoiding speculations of any kind. Whatever your theological views, you should agree with these facts about word usage.
Because I refer to slides in this talk, I recommend this YouTube version of this episode:
