-Removed-I didn't read your post very closely (I seldom do), but a cursory glance seemed to indicate that's what you were saying. Or something similar to that. But you are correct, Marcion believed the OT god was a different go from the NT one. It is not difficult to see why he came to that conclusion.

I love Jesus.
So you love Jesus, or the idea of Jesus? And if the former, then how do you know who he is? I'd love to know what chirsitans mean when they say they "love Jesus"
Josephw? Jaywill, etc.? What do you love- the idea or the actual person?
-Removed-If you understood the context and meanings of these scriptures and did a little research on word meanings in the original languages it was written in you wouldn't be using them to try and prove your thought. They really don't help.
You pick out a few that you maybe, slightly on a bad day think this is what their saying but you refuse to see the rest of the Bible's scriptures that "clearly" say just the opposite.
This posting to me just looks like someone trying to stir the pot instead of even slightly wanting to learn something. Just my thought!
Oh..by the way, I'm about to head out to the Kingdom Hall to obey what Jesus told his follwers to do on this night. It's where you should be too if you are indeed a Christian.
