Ezekiel 28:2, 3, 8-9
2 “Son of man, say to the prince of Tyre, “Thus says the Lord God: “Because your heart is lifted up, And you say, ‘I am a god, I sit in the seat of gods, In the midst of the seas,’ Yet you are a man, and not a god, Though you set your heart as the heart of a god 3 (Behold, you are wiser than Daniel! There is no secret that can be hidden from you! 8 They shall throw you down into the Pit, And you shall die the death of the slain In the midst of the seas. 9 “Will you still say before him who slays you, ‘I am a god’? But you shall be a man, and not a god, In the hand of him who slays you.

People follow the Deceiver in working to become gods - Mormons even teach this heresy and dare to say they are not opposed to God. Such claim to have superior wisdom to understand that others do not, even saying they know better than God who made all things! Like Tyre, these will all go to the Pit, the lake of fire, in the end. God's hand is never shortened against the proud and arrogant who pretend to sit on His throne. Judgment comes to all who do not reconcile to God in Christ, who alone is worthy to be called God.
