Satan, also known as Lucifer:
Isaiah 14:12-1512How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!13For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
"If there were, in the heavens and the earth, other gods besides Allah, there would have been confusion in both! but glory to Allah, the Lord of the Throne!" (Quran)
In Mesopotamian society, gods were an integral part of daily life and were believed to control various aspects of the world. They were both feared and revered, with rituals and offerings conducted to appease them. The relationship between the people of Mesopotamia and their gods was one of dependency and devotion, where the gods were seen as both protectors and punishers.
Nobody is above God. We humans are created beings and angels are created beings too, God is on a higher level than we are on. I Amanda is on the 3rd level, The angels are on the 2nd level and God is on the 1st Level. There are no other gods before Yahweh it is written ``You shall have no other gods before Me`` says Yahweh. Only Yahweh is God, Yahweh is God alone.But the Covenant which G'd has made with Israel is above G'd. So... G'd is above G'd. While you can have theoretically, a level above one Being, (perhaps there is a G'd above G'd; who does G'd worship?) There cannot be one above the Law, since there would still have to be the Law. The Law stays even with multiple hierarchical levels. This is one of two solutions Hillel made to the criterion problem.
They belived that their gods told the priests what to be done with the goverment. The priests would pray to the gods and the gods would "answer them" through prayer.
Ancient Mesopotamian people pleased their gods through offerings such as food, drink, and material goods, as well as by performing rituals, sacrifices, and prayers. They also built elaborate temples and dedicated statues and artwork to honor and appease their gods.
Hera the queen of gods
Hades' throne is in the underworld. He spends most of his time there, and rumor has it that the other Olympian gods were too creeped out by him to let him have a throne on Olympus.
In the Zeus temple at Olympia the throne was decorated with gold, precious stones, ebony, and ivory. This is according to witnesses at the time. Beware of later, fanciful stories of the throne of Zeus on Mount Olympus. These are not founded on the old myths.
The importance of Mount Olympus to the Greeks was that it was the home of the gods. It was where they lived and the center of the gods' power. If they didn't have it, then Olympus would fall and the age of the gods would be gone. The Greeks believed that the gods were the ones who helped them, so if Olympus was destroyed, then they would be hopeless.
made of black Egyptian marble. the arms had eagle with tin in their mouth to show that Zeus can kill anyone.there was a blue covering above to show that the sky was his. there were gold pieces on the throne. it had 7 steps leading up to the seat. one step for each color of the rainbow. he sat on a purple ram skin
Zeus' throne symbolizes his power, authority, and status as the king of the gods in Greek mythology. It represents his role as the ruler of Mount Olympus and the entire universe. It is a symbol of his supremacy and sovereignty over both the gods and mortals.
I know it is often said that there were "twelve thrones" on Olympus, but the very idea doesn't make sense. Zeus was the king of the gods and jealously guarded his power. The Throne was one of the symbols of a regents authority, so I don't expect that Zeus would have allowed the other gods to have thrones on Olympus (Poseidon had his own throne in the sea, and Hades his own throne in Hades, but they were lords of those respective realms).
you go to the secret passage to heaven and he is sitting in gods throne
Vegemite should be placed above the food pyramid as it is the food of the gods
Sitting on the throne proves his authority. The gods' thrones also is connected to their powers. Not to mention it might be comfortable. Well he is a god it must be comfortable as hell!!
Dionysus was made one of the Olympians when Hestia gave up her throne to him in order to avoid war breaking out amongst the gods. Assuming that he took the actual physical place of the throne itself, yes, he is the only one.
