Does the Bible actually tell us there are many gods? That would make more sense given God's prohibition against worshiping other gods... [Spirituality & Religion]

Here's a section of a youtube video on the nephilim talking about this idea with reference to older sources that appear to indicate that the god of Abraham was not the only god and possibly not even the creator god.
Have a look if you've got a moment. It's quite interesting.

You do have to wonder though, in the world in the time of Jesus, man didn't travel as easily as we do now, so who's to say that the "God" of the Christian bible is "The one True God", maybe the Buddhists were right and it's Buddha, or maybe it's Vishnu. The Muslims believe in Allah, who's to say they're wrong? Christians are very self-righteous in their belief in the "One true God" but can they prove what they say, no? Neither can the Buddhists or the Hindus or anyone else who worships some God. It's all conjecture and interpretation from one as much as the other religion. Hey maybe it's Elohim or the Thetans, or Aliens, no one truly knows for certain, it may all be BS...

He says it in His Word.

Isaiah 45:5-6

5 I am the Lord, and there is no other;
There is no God besides Me.
I will gird you, though you have not known Me,
6 That they may know from the rising of the sun to its setting
That there is none besides Me.
I am the Lord, and there is no other.

@GodSpeed63 I'd say the same to you as I do to any of the other religions, prove it! You can't as those are only words written by someone 2000 years ago and a world away... So were the Egyptians wrong in believing in Ra and Horus 2000+ years before Jesus came on the scene? Where was the "On True God" then? Times change, people's beliefs change, don't condemn those who don't believe as you do, not saying you're wrong but not saying you're right either.

I'd say the same to you as I do to any Skeptic, Yahweh has already proven Himself to mankind and His work is seen everywhere. It's not about religion, never has been or ever will be about religion. It's about a personal relationship with our Father in Heaven.

Totally true. What experience would an ancient tribe of desert people have with the gods of distant countries, much less places divided by oceans like the Americas.

lol don't get into it with him. In those two posts you've seen the entirety of the proof he's willing to give:

The bible says it's the word of god and it's your job to prove it's not.
Rinse and repeat.

But god tells you how you must worship him, what you must believe in and what you must do in order to achieve a relationship with him and through that salvation....that's textbook religion...

@spjennifer Buddha isn't a god in Buddhism. He was just a man.
