John 10:36 New International Version (NIV)
36 what about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world? Why then do you accuse me of blasphemy because I said, ‘I am God’s Son’?
What does this have to do with whether you and I are God?

What is it saying?

(CLV) Ps 82:6
I Myself have said: you are elohim, And sons of the Supreme are all of you.
Elohim can also refer to angels or heavenly spirits, or even earthly judges. I read this that we are heavenly beings.

Hark, the idea that we are God or gods is a New Age idea.

John 10:

34 Jesus answered: Is it not written in your Law: I said, you are gods?

John - Chapter 10 - Bible - Catholic Online

So you're saying that the Catholic Bible is a New Age Bible?

I doubt that's true. Call it what you will, it says what it says. Wouldn't you agree?
It's a small case g, and refers to powerful heavenly beings, not to being God, as Yeshua was.

Yahshua was referring to himself , as well as his brothers, in that verse.

Who should I trust, you or Yahshua?

Philippians 2 tells us that Yeshua was as we are when he walked this earth. He did miraculous things to which the Christian Testament refers, and which 'the Church' accepts and endorses, and he lived a perfect life, unsullied by sin.

His disciples, and many others that followed him and did some miraculous thing, endorsed by Papal investigation, were made Saints by 'the Church'.

Why was Yeshua the man never made a Saint by 'the Church'?

The Church does not make saints, but recognizes some for particular commemoration and veneration. God makes saints. Jesus has been recognized as holy since his first apostles.

Why was Moses never made a Saint - he and A'aron did some pretty miraculous things, too, even though they didn't live such perfect lives?

They have feast days in some churches as saints. Orthodox Christians put their images on icons, though they are not as common as New Testament saints. Moses and Aaron's feast day is September 4th.
