    The good the bad, and the rest

    God and the Messiah are both called elohim in scripture. That does, in fact, make two persons who are called elohim. One is worshipped as God and the other is worshipped as the messianic king. Cp. 1 Chronicles 29:20. None of that has anything to do with “monotheistic atheism”.

    That’s not even remotely close to the definition of “monotheistic atheism”. “You believe in God, believe also in me.” - Jesus (John 14:1)

    The good the bad, and the rest

    I did a quick search for the phrase - by anyone - on the board. It occurs one time - post #128 in this thread. That makes me think that you haven’t (and neither has anyone else) spoken with the trinitarians here about it. Tritheists believe in elohim, plural. “Monotheistic atheism” isn’t...

    Bible reading plans

    Chew on it. ”There is certainly good to be gained from reading extensive portions of Scripture. Perusing a whole narrative, or even a short book, like Ruth, is beneficial.

    Bible reading plans
