I've always, even when young, that Elohim=multiple aspects or polarities or energies of one Godhead, aka Monotheistic GOD. Example: Father Alpha/Son Christ (masculine), Mother Omega/Daughter Soul (feminine) and Holy Spirit (perfect balance of masculine/feminine. However, even to this day, all I see from 'professionals' is Elohim= multiple GODS. --- WHAT SAY YOU????
Hiya Kathlynn...There is so much to be said about Elohim being a singular God head but 3 distinct beings...And Elohim tells Moses his name is Abraham Issac and Jacob...Which was Father Son and Granson...But this 1 singular God head has to be multiplied as the stars of heaven...Just as Abraham was multiplied as the sands of the seas..That was the great Promise....I God Almighty will multiply thy seed Who's seed ? Christ Seed....The living word...As the stars of heaven And God Almighty swore by his own self That Christ wd be multiplied as the stars of heaven Thats y Jesus said to whom the word ( Gods seed ) came it made them Gods PLURAL And Jesus is God the Son...Thus we see an Israel of God on the Horizon which are spirits the H.G. Plural as the stars of heaven...That are gonna be born in us sinners...Whosoever receveth one such Child in my name receiveth ME...She brought forth a manchild that is gonna rule all nations...Abraham Isaac and Jacob were a perfect picture of 3 distinct Beings BUT the one singular FATHER OF Israel...This Heavenly Israel are gonna be born in us via the seed of Jesus...Thats y Jesus was saying that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit...Which is the H.G. the Children of PROMISE The Israel of God....Unless you receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in...ok lemme go...Its the H.G. That IS THE REAL HEIR and is lord of all....According to Gal 4 :1...But he has to be born in us via the seed of Jesus but he is lord of all thus that Child of Promise the kingdom...We are just a joint heir...But its only the H.G. that heavenly Jacob is the real HEIR...The Israel of God... Isaiah 49 kjv
Chris has given you the meaning of Elohim that has been used for centuries. The definition you gave is more from New Age/Paganism than from the Scriptures or Christian belief over the centuries.
Hello Kathlynn. I don't understand your belief/understanding of 'Elohim' that you shared, as I don't find that in the Bible, but I can say this: that the word 'Elohim' (from the Hebrew), has several meanings. And those meanings/applications can be to the True God (as in Genesis 1:1), or to gods in general (as in Judges 10:6), even to judges (in Exodus 21:6).
Elohim then, is the general name for God and is used in the context of God as Creator. The Name emphasizes that God is distant and powerful. It is used to describe God as the awesome and majestic Creator.
However, when God's Name is given as 'Yahweh' (the LORD), this is His personal Name and is used in the context of God having a relationship with His people. When God goes about creating humanity ( Genesis 2:7 ff; cf with Genesis 1:27, spoken of in a more general way), it is Yahweh who does this act. When the Lord is personally involved with His people, Yahweh is the proper way to designate Him.
