He was not a copper penny
Being in the image of God means in some ways we are like God but it does not mean we become part of the Godhead as though we are "another Son of God like Jesus" as your video puts it. Jesus is the only begotten Son of God but we are sons by adoption not" by God's womb", as in the video.
 
He repeats that "we have the very nature of God" a lot of times in that video. The only nature of God we have is His moral and intellect nature which does include love 2 Pet 1:4. But God's nature is eternal. Did you always exist? His nature is omnipresent. Are you everwhere? His nature is omniscient. Are you all knowing? He is omnipotent? Are you all powerful? So without listening to his other parts yet I would listen to see how much he makes believers into gods. The little god heresy is a main premise for Word of Faith theology.

God does not have a nature(a beginning) He is supernatural (without a beginning).

God is not a man as us .He is God like no other.
 
A penny has the image of Abraham Lincoln. Was Abraham Lincoln a copper penny?

God has no form he is not made of the rudiments of this world . Trying to give Him form describes the foundation of all Pagan religions in the world. He is separate from His creation.

Likeness is representation of character .Not a mirror image of men as the likeness of men.

That's what men using there imaginations as if it was a source of true faith create gods in the mirror image. Therefore show they not walking by the faith that comes through the written word of God, who remain without form . But rather Greek mythology after the philosophies of natural man

Acts 14:11And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men. And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.

Which is simply blaspheming the unsen Holy Spirit by attributing the work of God not seen to men that are seen.

2 Corinthians 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:

I would suggest to beware you do not follow after false prophets, false apostles as false disciples

The video does not say that. Sometimes you have to listen to Sam more than once to get what he is saying. I think that no matter what you are determined to make it into what you want it to be. Sam teaches different than any other that I have come across. So we can agree to disagree.

Yes, he does at 11:00-12:35. He says, us being born again makes us non created begotten sons from the womb of God and brothers to Jesus. You are not analyzing what your "apostle"is teaching.

How many times does he attribute supernatural God (without beginning) as if he was had a nature (having a beginning) in the likeness of men before we can recognize error??

The word apostle is "sent one" without any other meaning added . Why does Pjharrison approve of adding to the meaning and violate the warning in Deuteronomy 4:3 would be my question?

Was Moses sent by God as a apostle (one sent) . We would have to ask our own selves who "sent us" to discus the matters of Christ's faith, that works in his born again ones to work in us, yoked with us to both will and perform His good pleasure (imputed righteousness) ?
 
I can't twist his exact words.
You talk like you know this man, and know exactly what he's saying. You don't, but I do, and there is no way he would try to make us God. But we do have to be cleansed in order to connect to the head. He wants a bride who is without spot or wrinkle.
 
And in that portion of video 10:45-11:16 he quotes John 3:16 saying "only-begotten Son is not created" and refers it to us saying "to be begotten means God issued you out of his womb." The problem with that is He destroys Jesus' uniqueness (that is the Biblical definition of only-begotten) by including us into that class of being uncreated only-begotten sons of God too. He is teaching the little god heresy.

He's talking about Jesus. How did you get that confused.
 
Jesus is different from the angels because he is God's only begotten son. The angels are son's too, but not begotten.

John 3: 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. Besides that this is not an English class. Sam is pretty educated, so if anyone is wrong it's probably you.
