@sonship saidNo sonship. Atheists are transparent in their disbelief. How can they be false prophets? What do they prophesize?
@Ghost-of-a-Duke
Like atheists
You are the false prophet of this forum.

'Yet you are a man and not God, Although you make your heart like the heart of God.' (Ezekiel 28:2)
Folks there is absolutely no dispute that the Bible speaks of man's temptation to be in competition with God from the very beginning.
These presumptions, overreaches, and rebellions do not however, diminish God's incarnation as a man in Jesus Christ or the full salvation that we "grow up into Him in all things who is the Head." (Eph. 4:15)
Yes, Pharoah, Nebuchadnessar, Herod, the prince if Tyre are all examples of men self exalting themselves. Adam and Eve were tempted to be like God in knowing good and evil.
But we should not for this reason undercut the salvation of the redeemed to the uttermost as Jesus prayed -
"That they all may be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, that the world may believe.
And the glory which you have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, even as We are one;
I in them, and You in Me, that they may be perfected into one, that ty he world may know that you have sent Me and have loved them even as You have loved Me.
Father, concerning that which You have given Me, I desire that they also may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory, which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world." (John 17:21-24)
Yes, the church should be wary that we fall into a sin of presumption. And yes, also, we should not rebel against the Triune God's desire that the saved be brought into the glorious expression of God united with humanity.

@divegeester saidSonship… ? 🙂
You’re projecting sonship. I’ll remind you of my ever open challenge that I will unequivocally give you a yes or no response to ANY question you ask, IF you will give your word to reciprocate?
Usually you just avoid this challenge.
