Depends on who you ask. Gnostics say they are different. The old testament god is the Demiurge who's the child of Sophia and exists outside of the Pleroma.

I don't think God would be very tolerant in the Old Testament either if his only chosen people at the time all apostatized themselves constantly by marrying pagans that worshiped false gods (and the Israelites in turn worshiped as well) and engaged in heinous things like infant sacrifice as a result. Not to mention that never really quit their tomfoolery until after their return from Babylonian and Assyrian captivity.

if you actually read the old testament, you'll see that the god presented there is very similar to the god in the new testament. for example, Jeremiah.

they are one in the same. if you know anything you will know that God was never a kill happy punisher. if you read the Bible and do not get your understanding through the Holy Spirit then you may as well try to read a book in another tongue and interpret it on your own.

God was a kill happy punisher though, and yes I read the Bible.

He's omniscient, knew everything that was going to happen. Every sin that man commits is gods fault. The abrahamic version of "freewill" is a farce as well. It's akin to someone putting a gun to your head and saying "you have a choice". Sure, technically it's a choice, but on ewould hardly call it free will.

Now onto the kill happy part. God knew that man was going to sin. He knew that man was going to eat the apple. The whole "test" was pointless, because if he was omnipotent he'd already known what was going to happen. All the tests that he put his followers though (telling Abraham to kill his son for example) wasn't done as a test, because God already knew how that test would have ended.

One could only imagine that god was looking forward to killing the Egyptians, or flooding the world, because he knew that was going to happen since the beginning of time.



I mean, really you only have two choices here. You either believe that god is Omniscient and all powerful, and is kill happy.

Or you believe that god isn't as powerful as you actually thought

You confused omniscient with omnipotent.

Yeah, true.

Regardless, one could argue that you can't be omnipotent and Omniscient at the same time anyway

Hell, one could argue that you can't be omnipotent without being Omniscient as well, as being Omniscient is an aspect of being able to do anything

your rhetoric is pointless, if you do not know the reason God killed what he did during the old testament then there is no reason to further indulge you. once you find out then we can talk, otherwise this conversation won't go anywhere.

My rhetoric isn't pointless though

Either god loves killing, or he isn't omnipotent/Omniscient.

Or he's omnipotent and kills just because, in which case, wouldn that make god a psychopath?

That's false. He actually regretted his actions after the flood and at the time of creation did not posses the ability to see the future.

Also the story of Adam and Eve actually makes sense if you read as a metaphor for the evolution of animalistic proto-humans into the moralistic humans of today
