But isn't he the same god in the bible? The "let there be light" god? The "i'm the alpha and omega" god? Or there are two gods in the bible?
Based on my research it seems to be 2 gods in the Bible.
The house i was born into required that i read the bible, now obviously as a kid, i read it without thinking too much of it. I read it again and for the last time towards the latter part of my teen years and i equally came to that realization...the new testament exodus movement god was a jealous, scornful, war mongrel and advocate of anything violent....the other god comes in and says something along the lines of I am a merciful god etc etc. Which ones are christians worshipping?

The question is what father was Jesus referring to? He never specifically memtions Yahweh by name. The ancient gnostic Christians from over 2,000 years agp believed that the father Jesus taught about was not the old testament Jehovah.

Same guy jesus mentions that, he did not come to abolish the law or the prophets who foretold of his coming but to fulfill it so what gives? If indeed, he's referring to the ones the prophets worshiped , then he's the one. If not, then i guess judaist are still waiting on their messiah.

Why create us and never show yourself and expect people to worship you? Sounds quite silly.
I'm just waiting on the ones who accept the Bible as the de facto word of yahweh to explain this to me. Not only is he a war mongrel god but also a very jealous and contradictory god
Ive been posting threads like this for the longest.
Believers will have us believe the bible only contains truth and goodwill and thus debunk any assertions otherwise
not me i'll tell you right now that the god i worship has no problem blasting people away from the earth once they cross a certain line. the whole bible is leading up to the destruction of this world the message is clear
god is not playing around ALL WHO DO EVIL WILL PAY. Think about it jesus was the perfect man yet he was still allowed to be tortured and nailed to a cross.
So for all have sinned and fall short off the glory of the lord i was told growing up. Kids who are birthed and don't survive life also are sinners or am i miscontruing the meaning of the text in the holy bible?

They are the same GOD but you have to understand that God in the old testament is dealing with mankind from the perspective of "THE STATE". The creation and maintance of israel as a state and it's history is what most of the old testament is dealing with. Israel had to survive, it's laws and treatment of others seemed harsh to us but it was all for the good of all mankind. The laws of israel were soft compared to the laws of the other nations at the time. Google SCAPHISM or the bronze bull and you'll see what i mean.
Think about it if god had allowed all of israel to fall off into baal worship then we don't have jesus and everything in the old testament builds up to jesus.
The new testament is about god dealing with " YOU" as an individual as a member of the human family.

yeah you don't seem to understand that verse sin has to be punished or atoned for there is no way around it in the old days sin was wiped by the death of an animal and changed behavior.
now we have christ so he took all our punishment for us but we have to believe in him and change our behavior

I know all about scaphism and the bronze bull brah. My favorite hobby in my youth and early adolescence was to read about ancient history/civilizations/gods etc. So therefore i ask you, if this "State god" of Israel has changed his focus from that perspective to an individual perspective, how so is that the people of that "state" do not believe the messiah has been on earth already? And i strongly disagree with the laws being soft amongst other nations cos god himself commanded his "captains/prophets" to destroy nations among nations for their despicable acts/laws...

I really don't understand your logic. You say god was dealing with a state in the Old Testament so therefore that justifies him ordering the deaths of millions of people. If you think that's how you deal with a nation of people then would you have a problem with the governments of this world handling business in this manner? Killing people based off of worship? If there is only 1 god in existence according to the Bible then why is it a need to kill someone worshipping another god if that god that they worship really does NOT exist anyway?

god was ensuring the survival of israel the state and when states go to war people are killed this is how it is right now today and back then, also millions is an over exaggeration.
read the bible god did not simply destroy those nations based on their worship of false gods he destroyed them because they were leading israel into their evil practices. And some attacked israel
These people worshiped there gods through child sacrfice temple prostitution and beastialty. They would act out there myths so in other words if there god fucked a goat they had to fuck a goat.

Didn't god ask Abraham to offer his own son as a burnt offering and wasn't Abraham attempting to do just that? As we see Abraham didn't hesitate to offer his own son as a burnt offering to god. These other nations you speak of sacrificed there children so what's the difference? Do you think they knew whether or not they worshipped a false god or not?
Genesis 22:2-3
2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.

The difference is god did not let abraham actually do it. they could have worshipped any god they wanted to but when they started leading israel astray or attacking israel they made a very bad mistake
