Definition: Pepnet is a term used in Christian theology to denote an individual who is not related to God but believes he or she has supernatural powers. The term comes from the Greek, which translates as "powerful." In Christianity, this term was often used metaphorically to refer to those who believed they were endowed with divine attributes and therefore had the right to be perceived as godly. It is not necessarily a true belief in God, but rather a way to explain certain situations where one feels superior or exalted over others.
