Maybe Paganism is counterfeiting God?
Python Lysimachus is completely correct.
What I don't understand by those who claim that they believe in the Bible, yet they really do not! They have this mystical concept of Elohim the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. They refuse to really search the Scriptures which include learning what words mean. Not in modern language but in the language of the Bible. The Bible has proved constantly to be correct in what it provides to mankind. Not like the Koran or the Mormon Bibles the first ones does not have a beginning, the second teaches racism and hatred because of color. Both are mystical having unreliable nonsense that makes no sense. Not the Bible that has sixty six writers who writings are weaved together by Supreme Power. Not supernatural because natural comes from the word nature that Elohim created. The Bible is plain, simple, powerful, spiritual, factual, historical, mathematic, scientific, full of wisdom, secret to the unwise, open to those who are seeking Elohim's kingdom, prophetic, a pathway to Yashua's Kingdom, fair, honest, not racist or bias, provides good health and healthful eating to all mankind, but most of all it bring us hope and faith through Elohim the Holy Spirit that leads us to the Son who leads us back to the Father!
Now we all know that Elohim made man like Them because the Bible said so. I do not care about this word that you call SDA - Anthropomorphites! Because that is not what SDA accept nor do we believe in. Python you should know what it means yourself! Actually you believe in this concept yourself-read:
Anthropomorphism is any attribution of human characteristics (or characteristics assumed to belong only to humans) to animals, non-living things, phenomena, material states, objects or abstract concepts, such as organizations, governments, spirits or deities. The term was coined in the mid 1700s. Examples include animals and plants and forces of nature such as winds, rain or the sun depicted as creatures with human motivations, and/or the abilities to reason and converse. The term derives from the combination of the Greek ἄνθρωπος (ánthrōpos), "human" and μορφή (morphē , "shape" or "form. . . ."
In religion and mythology, anthropomorphism refers to the perception of a divine being or beings in human form, or the recognition of human qualities in these beings. Many mythologies are concerned with anthropomorphic deities who express human characteristics such as jealousy, hatred, or love. The Greek gods, such as Zeus and Apollo, were often depicted in human form exhibiting human traits. Anthropomorphism in this case is referred to as anthropotheism.
Numerous sects throughout history have been called anthropomorphites attributing such things as hands and eyes to their god, including a sect in Egypt in the 4th century, and a 10th-century sect, who literally interpreted Genesis 1:27: "So God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them."
From the perspective of adherents to religions in which humans were created in the form of the divine, the phenomenon may be considered theomorphism, or the giving of divine qualities to humans. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
You see I believe in the Divine and Elohim made us to look like the Three of Them. I totally understand the Bible and not some Greek interpretation that you believe in! You believe that beings burn in some pit call hell. When it is known by definition that hell means grave where the dead is placed down in the ground! You believe that the soul is some mystical thing like all pagans believe when Satan told Eve you really won't die! I know that the body is a soul with the breath of life and when you die there is no soul. I know that the word spirit really means your thought process and when you die you do not think, smell, feel, breathe, love or anything anymore at all. I believe in a first and second resurrection and the first one righteous people will live again when Yashua returns. You believe that Elohim are not Three Supreme Beings that work together as One. Instead you believe that your God have human traits namely personalities that is some kind of supernatural force. This force changes from the Father to the Son and the Holy Spirit is some other type of orb from this one God. My Bible proves without a doubt that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit all have a body which includes hands, mouth, feet, arms, legs, and so on. Elohim is not a force or some glob but They are Beings made eternally and at this time we are not! If they can made all types of chemicals which have neutrons, protons, from atoms than we do not know what Elohim molecular structure is! All I know and believe is that They exist and that's enough for me. Here is what the Bible says to back up my faith.
Then Elohim said, "And now we will make human beings; they will be like us and resemble us. They will have power over the fish, the birds, and all animals, domestic and wild, large and small." So Elohim created human beings, making them to be like Elohim. Elohim created them male and female, Gen 1:26, 27 (GNB) A some what better understanding Text.
And they saw the Elohim of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness. And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw Elohim, and did eat and drink. Ex 24:10, 11
I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame and his wheels as burning fire. Dan 7:9
And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. Rev 1:13-15
And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. Rev 5:1
