Are you dismissing the promise in Romans 8?
After the only begotten Son came to earth Jesus has made it possible for our ransom to be paid
In the Old Testament, the oldest son of Asenath and Joseph who was sold into Egypt (Gen. 41:5051). He and his brother Ephraim were grandsons of Jacob (Israel) but were adopted and blessed by him as if they were his own sons (Gen. 48:120). http://www.lds.org/scriptures/ot/gen/48.1-20?lang=eng#0
Adoption
See also AbrahamThe seed of Abraham; Children of Christ; Israel; Sons and Daughters of God
In the LDS Standard scriptures which testify of each other the Bible and LDS scriptures
The scriptures speak of two types of adoption.
(1) A person who is of non-Israelite lineage becomes a member of the family of Abraham and the house of Israel by having faith in Jesus Christ, repenting, being baptized by immersion, and receiving the Holy Ghost (2 Ne. 31:1718; D&C 84:7374; Abr. 2:6, 11).
(2) All who have received the saving ordinances of the gospel become sons and daughters of Jesus Christ by continued obedience to his commandments (Rom. 8:1517; Gal. 3:2429; 4:57; Mosiah 5:78).
Gal 3
24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
29 And if ye be Christs, then are ye Abrahams seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Gal 4
The Saints are children of God by adoptionPaul calls the Galatians back to ChristHe compares the two covenants.
1 Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
2 Ne 31 17-
Nephi tells why Christ was baptizedMen must follow Christ, be baptized, receive the Holy Ghost, and endure to the end to be savedRepentance and baptism are the gate to the strait and narrow pathEternal life comes to those who keep the commandments after baptism. About 559545 B.C.
The LDS understanding of the Remission of sins.
11 And the Father said: Repent ye, repent ye, and be baptized in the name of my Beloved Son.
12 And also, the voice of the Son came unto me, saying: He that is baptized in my name, to him will the Father give the Holy Ghost, like unto me; wherefore, follow me, and do the things which ye have seen me do.
13 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, I know that if ye shall follow the Son, with full purpose of heart, acting no hypocrisy and no deception before God, but with real intent, repenting of your sins, witnessing unto the Father that ye are willing to take upon you the name of Christ, by baptismyea, by following your Lord and your Savior down into the water, according to his word, behold, then shall ye receive the Holy Ghost; yea, then cometh the baptism of fire and of the Holy Ghost; and then can ye speak with the tongue of angels, and shout praises unto the Holy One of Israel.
14 But, behold, my beloved brethren, thus came the voice of the Son unto me, saying: After ye have repented of your sins, and witnessed unto the Father that ye are willing to keep my commandments, by the baptism of water, and have received the baptism of fire and of the Holy Ghost, and can speak with a new tongue, yea, even with the tongue of angels, and after this should deny me, it would have been better for you that ye had not known me.
15 And I heard a voice from the Father, saying: Yea, the words of my Beloved are true and faithful. He that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved.
16 And now, my beloved brethren, I know by this that unless a man shall endure to the end, in following the example of the Son of the living God, he cannot be saved.
17 Wherefore, do the things which I have told you I have seen that your Lord and your Redeemer should do; for, for this cause have they been shown unto me, that ye might know the gate by which ye should enter. For the gate by which ye should enter is repentance and baptism by water; and then cometh a remission of your sins by fire and by the Holy Ghost.
18 And then are ye in this strait and narrow path which leads to eternal life; yea, ye have entered in by the gate; ye have done according to the commandments of the Father and the Son; and ye have received the Holy Ghost, which witnesses of the Father and the Son, unto the fulfilling of the promise which he hath made, that if ye entered in by the way ye should receive.
19 And now, my beloved brethren, after ye have gotten into this strait and narrow path, I would ask if all is done? Behold, I say unto you, Nay; for ye have not come thus far save it were by the word of Christ with unshaken faith in him, relying wholly upon the merits of him who is mighty to save.
20 Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.
21 And now, behold, my beloved brethren, this is the way; and there is none other way nor name given under heaven whereby man can be saved in the kingdom of God. And now, behold, this is the doctrine of Christ, and the only and true doctrine of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, which is one God, without end. Amen.

In all due respect.
I whole heartedly believe in the near future more Bible scriptures will come forth I know the LDS only have a 1/3 of the Book of Mormon that more is to be given in the Lord time.
“Are you dismissing the promise in Romans 8?”
There’s nothing in Romans 8 that contradicts Isaiah, or any of the scriptures, in claiming that we will become gods too. Nor do I regard any of the LDS claims, so why even quote them at me?
“I whole heartedly believe in the near future more Bible scriptures will come forth”
Sure, right after DNA evidence proves that the Native Indians were all really Jews after all, despite the skin of blackness that the Mormon God(s) gave to them.
No you don't!
The JST 'came forth' and your leaders have IGNORED it!
How do you explain THAT???
D&C 132 'came forth', and you guys IGNORE it!!!
In D&C 132; GOD 'came forth' and said EMMA would be destroyed.
She wasn't; therefore YOUR GOD LIED!
