The Heresies of Marcion | Online Bible Institute

Marcions heresies posed such a profound threat to early orthodox Christianity that they precipitated more precise formulations of the Christian canon and creed.

The Heresies of Marcion​


Rejection of the Old Testament: Marcion outrightly rejected the Old Testament and its God. He viewed the material world, which he believed was created by the Demiurge, as intrinsically evil in opposition to the spiritual realm introduced by Jesus.
 
It must be digested, disseminated adequately or as usual turns up as rejected virtue ... wasted production as little brats? Gnomes ... trolls and all that digging for answers their parents would speak of on how anything was initiated ... screw-ups wended truth ... Ruthless ... after finding out ... there it all went silent under the trees ... maybe the moss formed a fine bed ... Moss Addah? Door to the mysteries ... vastly rejected by the truly hardened ... no floe left Toem ... Thom? Write that down ... log it ... everything? The logic of non-implausibility ... vapors in essence!

There is something to clouds that may be hard to touch ... as it fires up ... en lightening? Dear Lamb ... what does a poor lam know if the ole goads teach "M" nothing ... double negatives ... both departed! A plus or + ... dah cross in point! Sometimes with a hook, for grasp ... Tao-ism as converted from Daoism in the day ... that black/white line ... frontier?

So classic Gnosticism. A lot of non-canonical Gospels hew that way to varying degrees. It is an interesting take but not an especially "Christian" one and there are definitely reasons it got sidelined when the canon was drawn up. The whole "the Creator is an evil fake god" alone was guaranteed to put it out of the mainstream. And it is arguably even more anti-Semitic than orthodox Christianity given the implication that the Jews follow this "fake god".

for some reason i am finding myself categorizing Christians who disgusted the body and its functions to be Gnostic; i don't know where that came fro.

Hopefully some of the learned Christian scholars here can pipe up on the Marcion Gospel. No rush, we have so much time.
 
Christian scholars are different than those that claim to know for sure and never cracked the cover of the hidden bits ... this might repeat ultimately across the dark mystery of ... time? Can it really be wended and warped on a stormy night with Maria ... a Mariacon? Mercy be ...

The Que is lined up ... ready for whipping the ends ... the making of fringe out of the front I'r? Aye ... PassE ... pathological slip ... theory of plastic brae in place ...

The Gnostics certainly did see the physical universe as corrupt given it was created by the Demiurge. But not sure if other Christian traditions who think that way got it from them or if they all got it from schools of Greek philosophy that devalued the physical world and senses in favour of "ideas" and reason.
 
Why we have that need to know directive that is struck down in law by a felt pen ... constructed by someone who gnoes beta than destruction as prime ... categorical imperative has another side? Look deep into the word given superficially ... not just the face of it ...

What we don't know is captivating ... just look up at night and see if something blocks your vision ... that's kind of fuzzy too ... heavenly bodies are often obscured that way ... they just wanted to fell good without seeing what was required ... the sight of love makes many people turn green ... as IC it!

The option is hate ... and all that goes with it ... like hating to know! You don't need examples from me ... the norm (paradigm) is to despise the entire Lot ...

Think about this: "we fall in love and how does one rise out of it?" Well jumped-up ... the heaven is nothing but a large hole ... void in reality ... and why can't we just fall off the face of it?

This may require great input for understanding gravid grasp vs letting go!

Alas once got a grip of the felt pen .. you can ink your name on a great deal as CEO, etc. Inclusive of fractious leader and spiritual mode of departure from the mental process ... divine or divisive? Quite a niche to start ... another fold in space ... brain wrinkle or neurological fart!

There's a continuing enigma ... Eres gone astray ... ridiculous or a bit of nonsense when you struck the hole, well as it is ... and then the messiness! The darkness came upon me ... like a shadow in a primal forest ... if well vegetated ... lots of shadow ... beyond the greens you can be boled ova ...

There is no difference between the God of the OT and the NT. This one God has battled adversity since before our creation and during it. His is not the rebellious elohim or their followers which of course became mankind, but against adversity itself. It's kind of like trying to put a stop to cancer today.

In essence would that create goosebumps or the ridge to rise on a dogs back? There's a Rhodesian hound of that sort ...

By that argument, the God represented by the Qu'ran is also the one god. The Abrahamic god - One Monotheistic god, Three Religions.

He is the God of Creation so He is the God of everyone. Many just don't want to admit it, and throughout history the powers and principalities of the rebellious elohim have ruled all nations except one. You know, the small g gods.

In the ultimate form it all blends into the vast unknown as we elected to be less process and more passionate volatile ... some drop out for relief ...

Heavens as intangible ... they are just thin chance! Well scattered vapors denied by many soul seekers ... psychologists and those that don't believe their own etudes ... due to clarity and transparency unseen ... happens in the night of soul ... mystical! Some say mind blowing if you have such urges by half ... demiurge? They must be balanced to check out the feathers ... quilling of tortuous myth?
