I had a friend ask me this question. They said it is one word meant to convey someone who feels they are god-like (but aren't really). Apparently "false god" and "pseudo-omnipotent" are not what they're looking for.

I think you are maybe thinking of someone having a 'messianic complex.' They think they are the messiah but they are not really. Can't really think of another single word that would sum it up.

Demi- God comes to mind. Someone with a self feeling of superiority and they are the center of the universe. Stay away from these people because you will be harmed.

Yes! Delusional. Followed by psychotic maybe. You didnt say "someone who acts as if they are god-like" or "says they can do miraculous things". You said "feels they are God". This person needs help! Quickly..before she/he begins to develop commandments or gives you or your friend Noah orders to start gathering creatures for a rain storm.

There are types of mental disorder which lead people to think they are someone else, and such people are called "delusional". But I think you mean someone who just acts that way, in which case I would suggest
Conceited
Pompous
Arrogant
Ego-maniacal
Vain.

good day Dreamy, I did a learn on the belief of fake love a pair years in the past. a sensible woman informed me there replaced into no such component as fake love. She reported that all and sundry love from human beings comes up short in assessment to the affection of God. To coach it. she presented right here scenario: She asked, "might you enable your harmless toddler to be killed to save the existence of a thief?" I reported, "No, of direction not." She reported, "it extremely is how plenty God loves us." Agape, philos, and eros. those are the three varieties of affection. Agape is how we adore all and sundry because of the fact we adore Jesus Christ and He loves them. Philos is how i such as you like my blood-bought sister. Eros is how i like in common terms my spouse. once you're directed and guided via affection, anticipate the be conscious to come again out usually. only like human beings governed via hate tend to curse and say "I hate..." plenty. the comparable thought applies to you. what's on your heart and head pours out whether you like it or not. there is very almost no thank you to cover it. there is not something in any respect incorrect with it. photograph it like a nurse who spends her total day taking good care of sick human beings and then treats the bus driving force giving her a journey residing house with the comparable compassion. It would not cheapen the affection. It properly-knownshows a love that may not possible to cover.
