511 II, 16 | XVI. TO THE SEVERITY OF GOD THERE BELONG ACCESSORY QUALITIES,
512 II, 16 | PASSIONS ARE PREDICATED OF GOD, THEY MUST NOT BE MEASURED
513 II, 16 | when you allow indeed that God is a judge, but at the same
514 II, 16 | functions. We are taught God by the prophets, and by
515 II, 16 | Epicurus. We who believe that God really lived on earth, and
516 II, 16 | who refuse to believe that God cares for anything. Whence
517 II, 16 | argument of this kind: If God is angry, and jealous, and
518 II, 16 | Christians even to believe that God did die, and yet that He
519 II, 16 | must be deemed to exist in God also sensations of the same
520 II, 16 | designations. We read, indeed, of God's right hand, and eyes,
521 II, 16 | of man's substance, as in God they are rendered incorruptible
522 II, 16 | believe the Creator to be God? By all means, is your reply.
523 II, 16 | then do you suppose that in God there is anything human,
524 II, 16 | whom you do not deny to be God, you confess to be not human;
525 II, 16 | when you confess Him to be God, you have, in fact, already
526 II, 16 | that man was inbreathed by God into a living soul, not
527 II, 16 | into a living soul, not God by man, it is yet palpably
528 II, 16 | human characteristics in God rather than divine ones
529 II, 16 | ones in man, and clothing God in the likeness of man,
530 II, 16 | instead of man in the image of God. And this, therefore, is

537 II, 17 | a bounty which no other god at all exercises. It is
538 II, 17 | Do not therefore look at God simply as Judge, but turn
539 II, 17 | to think there is another God. Lastly, come and examine
540 II, 17 | human laws. But Moses and God existed before all your

542 II, 18 | XVIII. SOME OF GOD'S LAWS DEFENDED AS GOOD,
543 II, 18 | wanting in faith towards God, it might seem tedious,
544 II, 18 | incredible, to expect from God that vengeance which was

577 II, 24 | lack of foresight to that God whom, since you do not deny
578 II, 24 | of Jonah declares, "And God repented of the evil that
579 II, 24 | that Thou art a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger,
580 II, 24 | attribute of the most good God as most patient over the
581 II, 24 | that is, with the most good God. And because Marcion, too,
582 II, 24 | discussion), which the most good God is incapable of, is there
583 II, 24 | congruous as they are with God's judicial character, we
584 II, 24 | them to be compatible with (God as) a judge. The Greeks
585 II, 24 | Certainly not, my reply is; God will never repent of an
586 II, 24 | we should understand what God's repentance means. For
587 II, 24 | this is never the case with God. For, inasmuch as God neither
588 II, 24 | with God. For, inasmuch as God neither commits sin nor
589 II, 24 | then, will be the mode of God's repentance? It is already
590 II, 24 | even in a man, much more in God, whose every purpose is
591 II, 24 | change of mind, which in God we have shown to be regulated
592 II, 25 | XXV. GOD'S DEALINGS WITH ADAM AT
593 II, 25 | inconsistencies, as you deemed them. God calls out to Adam, Where
594 II, 25 | were in doubt. By no means; God was neither uncertain about
595 II, 25 | vineyard or your garden! And God, I suppose, with His keener
596 II, 25 | scorn so fine an argument of God's greatness and man's instruction!
597 II, 25 | greatness and man's instruction! God put the question with an
598 II, 25 | be the ignorance of our God, which was simulated on
599 II, 25 | inquiry? If you make merry at God's "going down," as if He
600 II, 25 | you do not strike your own God with as hard a blow. For
601 II, 26 | XXVI. THE OATH OF GOD: ITS MEANING. MOSES, WHEN
602 II, 26 | MOSES, WHEN DEPRECATING GOD'S WRATH AGAINST ISRAEL,
603 II, 26 | ISRAEL, A TYPE OF CHRIST.~But God also swears. Well, is it,
604 II, 26 | is it,I wonder, by the God of Marcion? No,no, he says;
605 II, 26 | when He knew of no other God; especially when He was
606 II, 26 | there was absolutely no God? Is it then of swearing
607 II, 26 | that there was another God. For when he swore by that
608 II, 26 | that there was no other God. It would indeed be a vain
609 II, 26 | order that you may believe God, even when He swears that
610 II, 26 | besides Himself no other God at all. But you have yourself,
611 II, 26 | yourself, O Marcion, compelled God to do this. For even so
612 II, 26 | nothing is unworthy of God which causes men to believe
613 II, 26 | causes men to believe in God. But (you say) God was even
614 II, 26 | believe in God. But (you say) God was even then mean enough
615 II, 26 | Moses is better than his God, as the deprecator, nay

618 II, 27 | definite statement: that God would have been unable to
619 II, 27 | account became worthy of God, because nothing is so worthy
620 II, 27 | nothing is so worthy of God as the salvation of man.
621 II, 27 | come to the belief that God moved about in the form
622 II, 27 | require to be convinced that God conformed Himself to humanity,
623 II, 27 | your own faith. For if the God (in whom ye believe,) even
624 II, 27 | humiliations are becoming to our God also, only more tolerable
625 II, 27 | ever act in the name of God the Father; that He actually
626 II, 27 | Creator; was His Word; whom God made His Son by emitting
627 II, 27 | and in whose name was He God who appeared as the Son
628 II, 27 | who appeared as the Son of God. But with us Christ is received
629 II, 27 | in this manner is He our God. Whatever attributes therefore
630 II, 27 | you require as worthy of God, must be found in the Father,
631 II, 27 | placid, and (so to speak) the God of the philosophers; whereas
632 II, 27 | uniting in Himself man and God, God in mighty deeds, in
633 II, 27 | in Himself man and God, God in mighty deeds, in weak
634 II, 27 | as much as He takes from God. What in your esteem is
635 II, 27 | the entire disgrace of my God, Is in fact the sacrament
636 II, 27 | sacrament of man's salvation God held converse with man,
637 II, 27 | man might learn to act as God. God dealt on equal terms
638 II, 27 | might learn to act as God. God dealt on equal terms with
639 II, 27 | deal on equal terms with God. God was found little, that
640 II, 27 | on equal terms with God. God was found little, that man
641 II, 27 | You who disdain such a God, I hardly know whether you
642 II, 27 | you ex fide believe that God was crucified. How great,
643 II, 27 | merits of cases. You require God to be very good, and yet
644 II, 27 | should be discovered in your God? That He too is a judge,
645 II, 28 | CONTRASTS, IN FAVOUR OF THE TRUE GOD.~Now, touching the weaknesses
646 II, 28 | rivalry to Marcion's. If my God knew not of any other superior
647 II, 28 | superior to Himself, your god also was utterly unaware
648 II, 28 | and all the evil which my God permitted to be, this also,
649 II, 28 | be, this also, did your god permit; for he allowed Him
650 II, 28 | allowed Him to permit it. Our God changed His purposes; in
651 II, 28 | refused to cast that look. Our God repented Him of the evil
652 II, 28 | repentance in the conduct of your god. Our God you say commanded
653 II, 28 | conduct of your god. Our God you say commanded a fraudulent
654 II, 28 | silver, in so far is your god more fraudulent still, because
655 II, 28 | Creator. Eye for eye does our God require; but your god does
656 II, 28 | our God require; but your god does even a greater injury, (
657 II, 28 | struck a second time. Our God (you say) knows not whom
658 II, 28 | to choose. Nor does your god, for if he had foreknown
659 II, 28 | consumed by the severity of my God. Those also who were not
660 II, 28 | who were not saved by your god are verily disposed by him
661 II, 28 | disposed by him to ruin. My God ordered a man to be slain.
662 II, 28 | a man to be slain. Your god willed himself to be put
663 II, 28 | many who were slain by his god; for he made every one a
664 II, 29 | CONSISTENT ATTRIBUTES OF THE TRUE GOD.~But I would have attacked
665 II, 29 | the character of a good God and a Judge, alters the
666 II, 29 | shown to be so worthy of God. Since, however, these two
667 II, 29 | which yet are compatible in God. For only take away the
668 II, 29 | demonstration that the self-same God was both very good and a
669 II, 29 | only competently found in God. Indeed, the very effort
670 II, 29 | surprise, when the same God was afterwards merciful
671 II, 29 | especially as you sever your own god from everything like acrimonious
672 II, 29 | that in these causes my God has been a jealous God,
673 II, 29 | my God has been a jealous God, who has in His own right
674 II, 29 | two Gods you teach) was a God of light, and the other
675 II, 29 | of light, and the other a God of darkness; and then you
676 II, 29 | persuade us that one was a God of goodness, the other a
677 II, 29 | of goodness, the other a God of severity. How ever, the "

679 III, 1intro| that there is but one only God. For no doubt it has been
680 III, 1intro| as pertaining to no other God than the Creator, when it
681 III, 1intro| determined that no other God but the Creator should be

686 III, 2 | Sender after the Sent, or God after Christ. Nothing can
687 III, 2 | should suppose that from God nothing comes suddenly,
688 III, 2 | ordered and arranged by God. And if ordered, why not
689 III, 2 | justly be required of man by God, and by man be reposed in
690 III, 2 | and by man be reposed in God; it being a duty, after
691 III, 3 | Sent One, and the Christ of God in very deed, by means of
692 III, 3 | to belong to none other (God) than the Creator, because
693 III, 3 | too, belong to the same God as do the old ones, rather
694 III, 3 | Christ to be foretold by a god who was himself never predicted?
695 III, 3 | inference, that neither your god nor your Christ is an object
696 III, 3 | object of faith, because God ought not to have been unknown,
697 III, 3 | been made known through God.~
698 III, 4 | imitate the order of our God, as one who was displeasing
699 III, 4 | entire plan of the rival God and the rival Christ, he
700 III, 4 | considered the most good God, he showed himself at least
701 III, 5 | from the ground; nor does God, forsooth, offer His services
702 III, 6 | brought on themselves, loving God with their lips, but keeping
703 III, 6 | vicegerent in the name of God), are well aware that His
704 III, 6 | you would rather refer to God Himself, instead of to Christ,

709 III, 8 | incredibility of an incarnate God. Now, the more firmly the
710 III, 8 | had introduced his very god to our notice as neither
711 III, 8 | divine Christ without being God! But why should he not have
712 III, 8 | propagated also the phantom of God? Can I believe him on the

714 III, 8 | to be false witnesses of God, because they testified
715 III, 9 | MANIFESTATIONS OF THE SON OF GOD.~Now, in this discussion
716 III, 9 | examples the acts of that God whom you are destroying.
717 III, 9 | by how much you make your god a better and more perfect
718 III, 9 | unsuitable to him of that God from whom he totally differs,

727 III, 10 | yourself the design of your god, in exhibiting his Christ
728 III, 10 | rather than to a fraud! The god whom you make is miserable

730 III, 10 | becoming a vestment for God. Whatsoever He is pleased
731 III, 10 | necessity to the superior God!~
732 III, 11 | are then honouring your god under the shelter of a deception,
733 III, 11 | even the real nativity of a God is a most mean thing. Come
734 III, 11 | affirm them to be unworthy of God, birth will not be worse
735 III, 11 | more truly consistent with God is the reality rather than
736 III, 12 | interpretation of Emmanuel, "God with us;" so that you have
737 III, 12 | the meaning of the word, God with us, is by the interpretation
738 III, 13 | a son." Now a sign from God would not have been a sign,
739 III, 13 | deemed to be proposed by God as a sign, but a warlike
740 III, 13 | knee adored Him as their God and King, through the witness

748 III, 15 | be shared in by any other God, especially a rival, and
749 III, 15 | does not belong to it. In God, however, there ought, I
750 III, 15 | abuse of words. Who is this god, that claims for his son
751 III, 15 | for a novel and unknown god. How is it, again, that
752 III, 15 | tis a fickle and tricksty God whom you describe! To promote
753 III, 15 | in His name as their own God. But I do not find that
754 III, 15 | the Christ of the other god; and this the gospel will
755 III, 16 | although we, who have by God's grace attained to the
756 III, 16 | belonging to the other (God), then Christ hinders him,
757 III, 16 | while announcing the will of God; but Joshua also (Jesus),
758 III, 16 | the Christ of the other god and the Creator's Christ.
759 III, 16 | the Christ of the other god has come, until you have
760 III, 18 | prayer for the grace of God. First, then, Isaac, when
761 III, 18 | persecution for the cause of God from his brethren, as Christ
762 III, 19 | he speaks of the Son of God? "To us is given He whose
763 III, 19 | is, His body. For so did God in your own gospel even
764 III, 19 | predicted as His by their own god, so that from the diversity
765 III, 20 | was to build the temple of God, that is to say, a holy
766 III, 20 | a holy manhood, wherein God's Spirit might dwell as
767 III, 20 | looked for as the Son of God. Then, again, the throne
768 III, 20 | king. From Christ, too, God's mercy did not depart,
769 III, 20 | whereas on Solomon even God's anger alighted, after
770 III, 20 | David." Him, not David, has God appointed for a testimony
771 III, 21 | appointed by the supremely good God for the liberation of the
772 III, 21 | kingdom, from the fact that God set up that kingdom from
773 III, 21 | were to find their way to God through Christ. But nations (
774 III, 21 | mountain of the Lord," that is, God's eminence, "and the house
775 III, 21 | eminence, "and the house of God," that is, Christ, the Catholic
776 III, 21 | the Catholic temple of God, in which God is worshipped, "
777 III, 21 | temple of God, in which God is worshipped, "shall be
778 III, 21 | and to the house of the God of Jacob; and He will teach

781 III, 22 | preach) that very self-same God, whose scripture they were

783 III, 22 | the course of the other god, whom, as you contend, He
784 III, 22 | of Christ or children of God would ascribe glory to God
785 III, 22 | God would ascribe glory to God the Father, in the person

787 III, 23 | and household and city of God. For thenceforth God's grace
788 III, 23 | of God. For thenceforth God's grace failed amongst them;
789 III, 23 | the Christ of the other god. Well, then, although you
790 III, 23 | the Christ of the other god who was driven to the cross
791 III, 23 | rather that he did this? God is no doubt a jealous God!
792 III, 23 | God is no doubt a jealous God! Yet he gained the victory.
793 III, 23 | your faith in a vanquished god! What have you to hope for
794 III, 24 | diversity (of Christs), God's kingdom in an everlasting
795 III, 24 | bosom. Oh, most excellent God, when He restores in amnesty
796 III, 24 | away in wrath! Oh, what a God is yours, who both wounds
797 III, 24 | makes peace! Oh, what a God, that is merciful even down
798 III, 24 | city has been provided by God for receiving the saints
799 III, 24 | Christ to belong to the other god and as if he were the first

825 IV, 7 | the Holy One," as (of a god) unknown even to his own
826 IV, 7 | the holy one" of the rival god? Simply that he went into
827 IV, 7 | Jesus and the Holy One of God; so did he acknowledge Him
828 IV, 7 | prophesied of "the Holy One" of God, and how that God's name
829 IV, 7 | One" of God, and how that God's name of "Jesus" was in
830 IV, 7 | the Holy One, the Son of God;" and, "Thou shalt call
831 IV, 7 | in Jesus the Son of that God who was judicial and avenging,
832 IV, 7 | Jesus nor the Holy One of God; if it was because he was
833 IV, 7 | Jesus and the Holy One of God, but also as belonging to
834 IV, 7 | the holy one of the other god. If, however, the rebuke
835 IV, 8 | DEMONS AS CHRIST THE SON OF GOD, WAS THE CREATOR'S CHRIST.
836 IV, 8 | exclaiming, "Thou art the Son of God," of what God, is clear
837 IV, 8 | the Son of God," of what God, is clear enough from the

839 IV, 8 | that Marcion says that his god is not feared; maintaining
840 IV, 8 | Christ) was the Son of a God who was to be feared, because
841 IV, 8 | must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also." Had
842 IV, 8 | also." Had He displayed His God anywhere yet? I suppose
843 IV, 8 | those who knew of another god also? I do not believe so.
844 IV, 8 | they had known, any other God but the Creator, He was
845 IV, 8 | announcing the kingdom of that God whom He knew to be the only
846 IV, 8 | whom He knew to be the only God known to those who were
847 IV, 9 | could not be defiled as God, being of course incorruptible.
848 IV, 9 | stains thereof by the word of God, was bound to offer unto
849 IV, 9 | was bound to offer unto God in the temple a gift, even
850 IV, 9 | as belonging to another god, because there would not
851 IV, 9 | claim to belong to the other god. If, however, he has not
852 IV, 10 | and the excellency of our God." What glory, and what excellency? "
853 IV, 10 | Who can forgive sins, but God alone?" So that you have
854 IV, 10 | Micah also says: "Who is a God like unto Thee? pardoning
855 IV, 10 | forgiveness of their sins? by that God, indeed, who will have mercy
856 IV, 10 | Since He is (begotten) of God the Father, He is not, of
857 IV, 10 | would thus be Son both of God and of a man. Such a nativity (
858 IV, 10 | you deny him to be Son of God; if through a divine one
859 IV, 10 | part either to surname your God as actually the human father
860 IV, 10 | not yet sure that He was God also, as being likewise
861 IV, 10 | being likewise the Son of God, rightly enough said that
862 IV, 10 | could not forgive sins, but God alone, why did He not, following
863 IV, 10 | He who remitted sins was God and man that only Son of
864 IV, 10 | Himself to be the Son of God but for the first time in
865 IV, 11 | of John, as of the rival god, and would also have defended
866 IV, 11 | impugn even the law of your god. He unites not in the nuptial
867 IV, 11 | authority of one and the same God, to whom appertain both
868 IV, 12 | He belonged to the rival god; nor would it cause surprise
869 IV, 12 | proclaim the Creator to be God and yet to impugn His Sabbath.
870 IV, 12 | course, but right that a new god should first be expounded,
871 IV, 12 | because it Would be the god that would impart authority
872 IV, 12 | not the discipline to the god; except that (to be sure)
873 IV, 12 | the propounder of a new god; for perhaps I might be
874 IV, 12 | not proper to man, but to God. So again, in the law it
875 IV, 12 | the soul; because what is God's work may be done by human
876 IV, 12 | salvation of the soul. By God, however, would that be
877 IV, 12 | do, for He was likewise God. Wishing, therefore, to
878 IV, 12 | Jericho. For that was really God's work, which He commanded
879 IV, 12 | celebrated without the fear of God by a people full of iniquities,
880 IV, 12 | of iniquities, and loving God "with the lip, not the heart,"
881 IV, 13 | psalm manifestly says: "O my God, I will cry in the day-time,
882 IV, 14 | the nations that forget God; because the needy shall
883 IV, 14 | is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high, and
884 IV, 14 | of Samuel gives glory to God in these words: "He raiseth
885 IV, 14 | the property of no other God whatever, than Him who owns
886 IV, 14 | blessings) also, than (Marcion's god), who has never given proof
887 IV, 14 | hungry is a provision of God the Creator. "Blessed are
888 IV, 15 | sins, than it is of that god who chastizes no man for
889 IV, 15 | whom the absolutely good god of Marcion, after so long
890 IV, 15 | to be the absolutely good god; he had now sojourned a
891 IV, 15 | was no longer (like) the god of Epicurus purely and simply.
892 IV, 15 | His attributes as the good God and Judge, that, as He had
893 IV, 15 | world, and their contempt of God, owing to which they deserve
894 IV, 15 | Christ. If to Marcion's god there be ascribed the blessing
895 IV, 15 | Creator to be the one only God. Since, therefore, "woe"
896 IV, 15 | knew to be well-pleasing to God even wisdom he further merited
897 IV, 15 | is not an incongruity to God, for by the help of riches
898 IV, 15 | thou forget the Lord thy God." in similar terms, when
899 IV, 15 | gloried in them rather than in God before those who had come
900 IV, 15 | be imputed to their own God, so the applause bestowed
901 IV, 15 | displeasing to any other god but the God of the true
902 IV, 15 | to any other god but the God of the true prophets.~
903 IV, 16 | incredible that the same (God) should seem to require "
904 IV, 16 | the man who believed in God might expect vengeance from
905 IV, 16 | might expect vengeance from God, while he who had no faith (
906 IV, 16 | the vengeance thereof to God. Thus, whatever (new provision)
907 IV, 16 | good and simply beneficent god to do a wrong to patience,
908 IV, 16 | man; so that the Lord thy God shall bless thee with blessings,"
909 IV, 16 | have not been instructed by God act on this incongruous
910 IV, 16 | under the discipline of God, which alone at last teaches
911 IV, 16 | faith, as in the fear of God. The god of Marcion, therefore,
912 IV, 16 | in the fear of God. The god of Marcion, therefore, although
913 IV, 16 | was not the case with my God, for He always and everywhere
914 IV, 17 | release of the Lord thy God." Now, when He commands
915 IV, 17 | shall be the children of God." What can be more shameless,
916 IV, 17 | of His graciousness. But God is truly kind even in spiritual
917 IV, 17 | without gratitude! Your god, however, had no right to
918 IV, 17 | neighbour; if from (Marcion's god) himself, he will then exercise
919 IV, 17 | anywhere found has another God been revealed by Christ.
920 IV, 17 | Jews cognisant of no other god but Him, beside whom they
921 IV, 17 | from the beginning even the God of the Jews? Who, again,
922 IV, 17 | absurd it were that a new god, a new Christ, the revealer
923 IV, 18 | example of faith in another god? Because, if He had done
924 IV, 18 | finding it, being in truth the God and Christ of Israel, and
925 IV, 18 | Christ introduced no other god for the working of so momentous
926 IV, 18 | is risen up among us, and God hath visited His people."
927 IV, 18 | visited His people." What God? He, of course, whose people
928 IV, 18 | either announced no other God but Him, whom He thus permitted
929 IV, 18 | of Christ, as of an alien god. Well, I on my side will
930 IV, 18 | that there was no other God but the Creator, even as
931 IV, 18 | least in the kingdom of God was not subject to him;
932 IV, 18 | than John belonged to one God, while John, who was greater
933 IV, 18 | belonged himself to another God. For whether He speaks of
934 IV, 19 | fact, that most merciful god of yours, who judges not,
935 IV, 19 | be given. If by Marcion's god it be given, by Marcion'
936 IV, 19 | it be given, by Marcion's god also will it be taken away.
937 IV, 19 | will not be the work of a god who knows not how to threaten,
938 IV, 19 | who hitherto has kept his god in obscurity, waiting (I
939 IV, 19 | doubted whether He were God or Son of God, from seeing
940 IV, 19 | whether He were God or Son of God, from seeing Him, as they
941 IV, 19 | brethren to the Word of God, was not a disciple worthy
942 IV, 20 | He triumphed. Now of what God did the Legion testify that
943 IV, 20 | the Son? No doubt, of that God whose torments and abyss
944 IV, 20 | of the recent and unknown god was working in the world,
945 IV, 20 | ignorant that there was another god above Himself, He had by
946 IV, 20 | the Christ of their own God. They do not ask of the
947 IV, 20 | do not ask of the strange god, what they recollected they
948 IV, 20 | be the Son of a ruthless God? And what sort of god will
949 IV, 20 | ruthless God? And what sort of god will that be who helped
950 IV, 20 | had acknowledged that the God of the abyss was also their
951 IV, 20 | the abyss was also their God, so did He actually Himself
952 IV, 20 | and Son of the avenging God. Now, behold an inkling
953 IV, 20 | heal her. Here, then, is a God who is not merciful by nature,
954 IV, 20 | hitherto unconscious of any God, uninitiated as yet in any
955 IV, 20 | infringement hazarded? In what God believing? Whom despising?
956 IV, 20 | was ignorant of any other God? Whatever her infringement
957 IV, 20 | made her believe that her God preferred mercy even to
958 IV, 20 | she was certain that her God was working in Christ; she
959 IV, 20 | human nature, but as very God, whom she assumed to be
960 IV, 20 | become defiled, but not so God, whom she knew for certain
961 IV, 20 | knew that the succour of God's mercy was needed, and
962 IV, 21 | to preach the kingdom of God. Does He here say of what
963 IV, 21 | Does He here say of what God? He forbids their taking
964 IV, 21 | Again, that it was no new god which recommended by Christ,
965 IV, 21 | purpose of announcing another god after His resurrection.
966 IV, 21 | Christ pursued by that man of God, who ordered ten barley
967 IV, 21 | agreed to lose them for God's sake; but He destroyed
968 IV, 21 | recompenses of their reward from God. "See," says Isaiah, "how
969 IV, 21 | whosoever loses his life for God saves it, so that you may
970 IV, 21 | It is, however, a jealous God whom He here presents to
971 IV, 21 | simply spirit, and power, and god. But as withal he was not
972 IV, 21 | courage give satisfaction to God for the shamelessness of
973 IV, 22 | he beholds the glory of God, or when God speaks through
974 IV, 22 | the glory of God, or when God speaks through him, he necessarily
975 IV, 22 | overshadowed with the power of God, a point concerning which
976 IV, 22 | He belonged to the rival god, he would not have made
977 IV, 22 | there among you that feareth God? Let him hear the voice
978 IV, 22 | Moses, "shall the Lord your God raise up unto you, of your

980 IV, 22 | is still not from another God, or to another Christ; but
981 IV, 22 | Respecting the face of God, however, he had already
982 IV, 23 | you come from some other god, I should wish you to tell
983 IV, 23 | blaspheme. As therefore God is a just God, He spared
984 IV, 23 | therefore God is a just God, He spared not impious children,
985 IV, 23 | course, from youth. And as God is good, He so loves infants
986 IV, 23 | As indeed for Marcion's god, who is an enemy to marriage,
987 IV, 23 | most humane and merciful God reject the man who offers
988 IV, 23 | and preach the kingdom of God," He gave a clear confirmation
989 IV, 23 | he who devotes himself to God, among other things, is
990 IV, 23 | to preach the kingdom of God. Or else, if it be not so,
991 IV, 24 | masters. That the kingdom of God was neither new nor unheard
992 IV, 24 | this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you."
993 IV, 24 | you have in a threatening god, one that executes also,
994 IV, 24 | and the same Lord, (the God) of apostles and prophets.
995 IV, 24 | creatures or he who is not god over a single lizard? Happily
996 IV, 24 | Isaiah: "In that day the Lord God shall draw His sacred, great,
997 IV, 24 | which we shall reach to God; and then to this way of
998 IV, 25 | If it was by Marcion's god that they were hidden and
999 IV, 25 | prudent done wrong, that God should be hidden from them,
1000 IV, 25 | failed in any duty towards a god whom they knew not, suppose
