Joseph Smith taught:
"Some say I do not interpret the scriptures the same as they do. They say it means the heathen's gods. Paul says there are Gods many and Lords many; and that makes a plurality of Gods, in spite of the whims of all men. Without a revelation I am not going to give them the knowledge of the God of heaven. You know and I testify that Paul had no allusion to the heathen gods. I have it from God, and get over it if you can. I have a witness from the Holy Ghost, and a testimony that Paul had no allusion to the heathen gods in the text."
Sermon by Joseph Smith, Meeting in the Grove, east of the Temple, June 16, 1844
