And Abraham said, "The Gods caused me to wander."

The word "elohiem" means "powers".
Because of the fact that God is the source of all powers, the word elohiem is used in the sense of the English word "God", but it is also used for judges, mighty men, leaders, and more.
Moses is called an elohiem in Ex 4:16 and Ex 7:1.
When Abraham said "the elohiem" caused me to wander", he was saying: The powers caused me to wander".
What he did not say, was the God was a plural, because He isn't.
The whole Bible teaches that GOD IS ONE.
It is only the statue worshiping RC church who came with the extra-Biblical claim that God is trinity,
But: The trinity is an idolatrous concept, taken from pagan religions much older than Christianity, and it is NOWHERE to be found in the Bible.
It is a desparate attempt to turn two gods; God the Father and the Christian god the son, into one God, because the Bible teaches that there is only one God. The trinity says 1 + 1 + 1 = 1. It claims there is one God, made up of three persons.
It is illogical, extra-Biblical, and flies right in the face of the BIBLICAL teaching that God is one.
On top of that, the RC church is a totally unreliable child raping institution:
The Catholics who pretend that their religion is the right religion, are in denial of the fact that they are worshiping statues.
The Catholics who pretend that their religion is the right religion, are in denial of the fact that their clergy are child rapists, the result of the Catholic celibate.
The Catholics who pretend that their religion is the right religion, are in denial of the fact that JC didn't fulfill the messianic prophecies.
The Catholics who pretend that their religion is the right religion, are in denial of the fact that the Bible teaches that God is one, and not three, and not a trinity.
The Catholics who pretend that their religion is the right religion, are in denial of the fact that they threw overboard the law of God and replaced it with paganism.
The Catholics who pretend that their religion is the right religion, are in denial of the fact that a God the Father and a god the son is TWO (2) gods.
Amen and HalleluJah!
