One trinity to remember to grade divinity claims is the powers that be, the hellraiser, and the just god. Each can lay claim to a type of godhood. Each is very imminent and present when at work. Each one of these may be a volunteer standing in until the Creator arrives.
The powers that be refers to the party in charge, the rulers. The rulers may sarcastically claim to be the only godhood that matters, since they are in charge! They may say they can have you locked up, tortured, or even executed. They may or may not require your worship. They are not usually elected officials but rulers for life.
The hellraiser can lay claim to giving you hell on Earth if you do not obey. Hell may be the penalty for disobedience. Hell may be a justified penalty, since the offense was committed with knowledge of the consequences. The hellraiser may afflict its subjects' minds, bodies, and souls in the afterlife.
The just god is closest to the divine deity. This god grants all the right to indulge in harmless liberties and punishes violations with merciful reciprocity. As the offender does, so it is done unto them! No lockup or torture. No executions or hell. Just catch, penalize, and release. Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, stripe for a stripe justice.
Not one of this trinity shows itself as the Creator but is the interim divine in command. Not one of them claims divinity, yet all three are godhood in the land they occupy for all intents and purposes. All three may be mortal, but they may also be spiritually gifted.
