I don't see where that would make us gods except in a figurative sense like Satan is the god of this world.
Actually, that's exactly what it's ment to sound like. It is recieveing his authority, it is recieving rights to a throne 'like' Gods. Not the throne of God. Heavenly Father's plan is to give those who suceed in turning to Christ everything he has, everything he knows, and everything he teaches.

Uhh...I don't want to be a figurative god like Satan.
