Let me be clear. I am not disagreeing with the quotes you listed below. But none of them define specifically what it means to be a god in the hereafter. They just tell us of our divine heritage and potential. I am just not convinced that that means precisely the we will be in position to be worshipped. I may have God as my spiritual father and if obedient may inherit great riches and privilages. But will I be worshipped? That is not defined.
It is a great question. A question that opens many wonderful possibilities. And those who have tried to answer this question do so under the umbrella of speculation NOT official doctrine. That is my point.
Saying that these ideas mean "full blown Gods with all of the baggage" is an assumption.....as intelligent and as logical as it may seem.
And that ever famous statement "As man is God once was....as God is man may become" is something we talk about NOT something we teach. YOu get that? We don't know! We just think.
