Before I ever knew of this website or read any comments Alex had written, the Spirit had already revealed to me that the Word (God) is SEED and Seed ALWAYS produces SEED just like the SEED it came from.
Wheat seed produces wheat seed, corn seed produces corn seed, no matter what seed is planted it ALWAYS produces the same seed that was planted.
Luke 8:13 Now the PARABLE is this: the SEED is the Word of God.
I know you believe the WORD is GOD; therefore GOD is SEED, GOD is SPIRIT; therefore SEED is SPIRIT, the Holy Spirit or the Holy Ghost is the WORD, the SPIRIT and ALSO the SEED.
1 Peter 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible SEED (flesh), but of incorruptible SEED (SPIRIT), by the Word of God (Spirit of God, Seed of God), which (the Seed, the Spirit, the Word) liveth and abideth forever.
When we depart this body of flesh; Spirit ONLY remains, Spirit is GOD, we become (the image of) God.
As for Psalms 82 It is the Word. It is prophecy.
Psalms 83:1 God (the Word) standeth in the congregation (those that receive the Word) of the mighty; he (the Word) judgeth among the gods (gods that are flesh and gods that are born again SPIRIT; first; you bear the flesh, then the Spirit).
Psalms 82:2 How long (God, the Word) will you judge unjustly (we see no justice right now), and accept the persons of the wicked?
Psalms 82:3 (God, the Word) defend the poor and fatherless; do justice to the afflected and needy.
Psalms 82:4 (God, the Word) deliver the poor and needy: (God, the Word) rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
Psalms 82:5 They (gods of this world) know not, neither do they understand; they walk in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
Psalms 82:6 I (God, the word) have said (and my WORDS will not return unto me void) YE ARE GODS; the children of the most high.
But ye shall die like men (flesh, and ONLY the SPIRIT will remain), and fall like one of the princes (of this world).
We know we'll be like the angels in heaven. "Neither marry or give in marriage".
God created all the angels, good, evil, Satan. (The Catholic Church names more archangels than the Bible. I think RC are responsible for the heresies out there.)
Everything created by God with lungs is subject to drowning. Except Satan. We see him in the Book of Job. So he was somewhere else during the flood.
I asked the Holy Spirit what happened to the evil angels in the flood? He said they drowned, that's all. There's a small passage where they are railing on Satan for what happened to them. Isaiah I think.
In their current state, they have to possess a human to do their evil deeds. Jesus was seen casting devils and demons out of people. The Bible shows us that. Modern day people "don't believe in that stuff." But they make movies like the Exorcist and flock to see green pea soup. What a world!
Saul is seen consulting with the Witch of Endor. Jezebel is a demon principality whose primary purpose is to destroy men or make them work for her.
Point is, they are out there. Jesus is going to deal with this once and for all TIME. They're all going to HELL; and some to the Lake of Fire. God is going to do a total recreate of Earth, back to its Genesis state , while all the BELIEVERS are in Heaven. All of the evil that Satan has done will be locked up, under God's supervision.
We don't need to investigate evil. Our Focus is to evangelize as Jesus told us, and PRAY: to the Lord of the Harvest of souls. Learn from THE HOLY SPIRIT only. 2 Peter 2:19 (read whole chapter)
People have to make a choice! This world is going away. 2 Peter 3:10.
Study
We see in Job the sons of God are angels ( Job 1"6) ( Job 2:1) and ( Job 38:7). There are demons on the earth that I hope you never have to contend with because these are vicious beings. How or why they are here is not in scripture, there are writings outside of the Bible but whether they are true is in question. But what does scripture tell us?
We see in Scripture angels appearing in the form of man, able to eat, drink, and have physical contact with humans. ( Genesis 18:2-8) ( Genesis 32:24-30). We are also told to be careful entertaining strangers because they could be an angel, ( Hebrews 13:2). The angels that left their first estate were treated differently, they were locked in chains of darkness (bottomless pit) until judgment, they are not roaming this earth.
Angels have no need to reproduce in their present estate like humans. If angels by choosing to leave their first estate can procreate, that is what we see in ( Genesis 6:1-4), and is probably the reason those angels were locked up in darkness because they corrupted God's creation of mankind, that God destroyed with the flood.
Angels and demons are roaming the earth. We see in Daniel 10 good angels and bad angels battle each other here on earth, same as we battle these beings, these may be part of the third that will be cast down with Satan. We see they rejoice in heaven when this happens and say woe unto those on earth.
We know by Job Satan has access to heaven because he went with the sons of God when they presented themselves to God, ( Job 1:6-12). Some take Revelation 12 as in the past, but if we look at what is said. Satan is the accuser and accuses us daily. If you read Revelation 12 you will see in vs. 8, Satan has no more place in heaven. In vs. 11 they overcome Satan by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives until death, this is in the future, not the past.
God bless,

Your reply to S Spencer, Onward till the RETURN of our Master.
I BELIEVE if you are BORN AGAIN, the Master has already come (to you) the SECOND TIME.
Hebrews 9:28 So Christ (came the FIRST time in the flesh and) was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that LOOK (with spiritual eyes) for him shall he appear (as the Holy Spirit) the SECOND time (coming) without sin unto SALVATION.
You never see the thief, if you could see him he would not have spoiled your house.
Everyone one is LOOKING to see him with eyes of flesh.
That happens at his return to judge the world. Those seeing him; with eyes of flesh, will have missed the SECOND coming (being BORN OF THE SPIRIT).
The Born Again will be WITH HIM when he comes to judge the world.
Food for thought, the Spirit reveals.
Accepting the Lord Jesus as your Savior is the most important thing you will ever do. Fortunately, it's a simple process, but no amount of prayer from you or other people's prayers unless you act with a genuine heart.
God sent His only Son to die for you John 3:16-18 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." But it's not enough to believe in your head. You must believe in your heart. Romans 10:9-10 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
Humble yourself before Christ, confess your sins, repent--to wit, determine never to commit those sins again--and believe in your heart that he has saved you. He will give you a new heart and a new life in Him. Ezekiel 36:26 "A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh."
Once you are born-again, do get baptized by submersion, and I strongly advise you to talk to a pastor or someone who can lead you into the steps of spiritual growth.
God bless you and yours
I'm not a pastor or anything like that, just a man trying to please God. I'm very sorry to hear of your current struggles with depression and isolation. Its been very difficult for many during these COVID days. As I struggle through my own troubles I can surely understand some of what your going through. It seems like there's no way out and no one cares but the most important thing to understand is there is a way out and there are many people who care. I know in recent times God has eliminated my support system so I would come directly to him, our source. I know its not easy, but He is the way out and he loves you beyond your wildest imagination. I'm still amazed at how much He truly loves me, and He loves you just the same! I will surely pray for you and your escape from this situation. I pray that you find everything you need in God first, and everything else will come. Please don't give up on yourself, this is situation may seem the worse, but you can get through it. I posted a prayer request here and wondered if anyone ever responds to these. Instead of looking to see who responded to mine I decided to respond to the prayer request of others. After reading this, spend a few minutes praying for someone else. Remember God loves you more than you can comprehend. Be blessed my friend!
All People is divided up in one of three categories.
Gentiles.
Jews.
The Church.
No matter what color you are you fit into one of those categories.
You are brothers and sisters to your neighbor in each group. ( No matter the color.
The Gentiles and in some ways the Jews function in a way of division. But the true believers in the Church don't.
I believe everything you just said.
I believe the level of fruitfulness behind the works of a believer is important. The purpose behind the action, Is it inward or an outward performance of self glory or righteousness. As the Lord said to the Pharisees.
" Matthew 23:26. Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also."
As well as obedience to the will of God.
Luke 12:47-48. And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.
But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.
I believe a non believer will be judged by their deeds APART from the atonement of the provided sacrificial Lamb of God.
Possibly divided by what by what they heard or seen.
Luke 10:13-16. Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you, they had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.
And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.
He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.
God bless.
