Who Are The Gods?
Episode description
Who Are The Gods?
“God has taken his place in the divine council; in the midst of the gods he holds judgment.” - Psalm 82:1
Who are these gods that the Lord God is meeting with in the divine council? Who is accountable for the state of things in this world?
Some of you reading and or listening to this may be shocked to learn that the answer is us. We are: “I say, "You are gods, children of the Most High, all of you” (82:6)
We are gods, children of the Most High and we are responsible for creating and maintaining a world where we:
“Give justice to the weak and the orphan; maintain the right of the lowly and the destitute.”
“Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked."
What are we doing to meet our responsibilities of welcoming the stranger, caring for the marginalized, setting free the oppressed, and binding up the broken hearted?
If this Psalm is to be taken seriously, that’s the answer God is looking for from us.
