Two Errors From Elohim: No Little Gods, No Separate God

You will find no shortage of people who believe that the Hebrew word elohim is a plural. 'Im' is famously the Hebrew suffix marker for the plural. Nor will you find a shortage of people who believe that this plural Hebrew word refers to a singular God. There is only one God. Count them: only one Big Guy. Then it begins to break down. "The word elohim, being plural, literally means 'gods,'" says one. "No, it is the plural of majesty," says another. "Elohim is from El, the name of the chief Canaanite god," says the scholar. "El simply means 'the' in Hebrew," says the fool.

Well, what is it? None of the above. According to Victor Alexander, Elohim is properly Al-lo-hiem, which represents the Assyrian/Aramaic pictograph of God "over the flames." Al-lo-hiem, is a compound word: the singular word for God conceptualized over the plural flames of creation. What is over the flames? Power and authority--the Son of God working His creation. What are the flames? The stars of the universe? The sacrifice altar? My guess is the workings of imagination. Consciousness--"God," the "Son" of the Ineffable--imagines. His works of imagining become whatever He believes He is: power, matter, and form. These are His actions, all of which are Him.

So we do not have multiple powers and authorities; we have one power and authority manifesting in, as, and through the flames below Him. They are Him in action. When He said, "You are Elohim," such as in Psalm 82:6, He was saying, "You are ME, God, the Consciousness of the Ineffable, the Power and the Authority over the flames, the Becoming One--act like it."

There are no little gods, no "little 'g' gods." Nor is the one God separate from us or from anything else. He has become everything, and is above everything. Nothing is separate, and nothing is independent. Act like it.
