There are several powers that say you "gain" temporary hit points.
Last night, after some discussion, our group landed on this understanding (taking into account the rule that temp HP from different sources don't stack).
The main question in the debate was first the question about what "gain" means (we finally settled on, "Adds to existing amount"), and whether gaining will be additive to existing THP (even if from a different source, which we finally decided on "no").
What are others doing here?

- 1. When a PC gains THP (temp HP), they are added to existing THP from the same source (eg, Warlock's Infernal pact power).
- 1a. If the PC has THP from source A (such as a cleric power) and gains THP from source B, these do not stack because they are from different sources.
- 2. If a power says someone receives THP, then these are not additive to any source. Receiving THP from the same source two times is not the same as gaining THP.
