Are We Gods and Goddesses?
By Dr. Michael Mirdad By Dr. Michael Mirdad
Jesus, the Christ, made many unbelievable statements during his time on Earth, some statements being very upsetting to those who prefer keeping people in a limited state of mind. One of his most startling statements, however, was in response to those who didn‟t like people referring to him as “God” or as a “Son of God.” Most people don‟t know it but when Jesus was asked why he dared to refer to himself as a “Son of God,” he replied very clearly and said, “Were you not told in the teachings of your ancient prophets that „Ye are gods?”
To say, “You are gods,” is such a direct statement, that we might assume there would be little or no doubt or debate about its meaning. Nevertheless, some say the “G” should get capitalized and the passage then translated to be “You are God‟s,” meaning that “You belong to God?” If this were the case, as the Fundamental Christians claim, then the word “God” would have been capitalized in the first place. Instead, the statement in both the Old and New Testaments (which are kept meticulously accurate), specifically do NOT capitalize the word “God,” because they were referring not to the Prime Creator but rather to “children of God” or “co- creators” or “second-level gods.” Therefore, Jesus was conveying a clear and direct message that since we are

God‟s children and made in Its Image, then we are indeed “gods/goddesses” or co-creators.
Nevertheless, do you think you could get away with referring to yourself as such? Can we put that on our I.D. or Driver‟s License? Can we say, “I am the god Joe or the goddess Sue?” I doubt it! Since God has already determined that we truly are gods and goddesses, doesn‟t it seem a little unfair that we cannot (or do not) identify ourselves as such? And if so, will this ever change? The answer is simple. We can all begin referring to ourselves as gods and goddesses when we begin acting as such. In other words we must be (and behave) as that which we would claim to be. When we act like idiots, nobody seems to have a problem identifying us as such. The same goes for gods and goddesses. We sometimes say, “Act your age.” Now we can equally say, “Act your title.”
So what does it mean to be a god or goddess? Classic mythology explains that besides there being a “Supreme Being” (God), when the universe was created, there came into existence supernatural beings (gods and goddesses), that became the co-creations of the universe (including planets, trees, water, and all living things). These co-creators are you and me in our soul-level consciousness— before we fell into more and more dense levels of human awareness.
