All Christians should stop believing in God and read this for the clear explanation of why this must be so. Really, the argument is even so clear throughout Scripture that I am surprised that more preachers aren't delivering this message to their flocks. In the OT, God mocks the silver and gold creations that become the objects of worship. He doesn't mock that they are called "gods", but rather that they can't do anything. Remember the whole fire race in Samuel? I can imagine the YHWH mocking "god" on that hill. In Acts, Paul threatens the Ephesian livelihood by challenging their god with the truth of the Father and Lord Jesus.
I've discussed in more posts than I care to link the importance of names in the Bible. But this is the first time I would remove a name from usage. Do we dare be brave in the faith and say that we no longer refer to Him as God and only use those terms appropriate for the living Almighty that He is?
We will try. And we will try to deliver that message to the faithful.
