1142 IV, 35 | the kingdom of any other god than Him of whom they were
1143 IV, 35 | asking Him. "The kingdom of God," He says, "cometh not with

1145 IV, 35 | and do the commandment of God? If, however, the kingdom
1146 IV, 35 | however, the kingdom of God lies in His commandment,
1147 IV, 35 | place is the kingdom of God; for, behold, it is within
1148 IV, 35 | idle, if we believed that God had predicted the humiliation,
1149 IV, 35 | terrible a mild and gentle God as He is? Why does He bid
1150 IV, 36 | requests. He show us that it is God the judge whom we must importune
1151 IV, 36 | judge. But He added, that "God would avenge His own elect."
1152 IV, 36 | account the specially good God, whom He represented as

1158 IV, 36 | that there is one only good God, who is the only good, because
1159 IV, 36 | because He is the only God. Now, undoubtedly, He is
1160 IV, 36 | undoubtedly, He is the good God who "sendeth rain on the
1161 IV, 36 | declared that the name of God and of the Good belonged
1162 IV, 36 | ready to follow the Lord thy God?" Now Christ is the man
1163 IV, 36 | to be ready to walk with God" "And come," says He, "follow
1164 IV, 36 | descended from that (alien) god (of Marcion), to subvert

1173 IV, 38 | be "the things which are God's?" Such things as are like
1174 IV, 38 | commands to be "rendered unto God," the Creator, is man, who

1177 IV, 38 | must be confessed, this god has not a denarius to call
1178 IV, 38 | question submitted to you. God forbid, then, that we should
1179 IV, 38 | marriage. "But they whom God shall account worthy of
1180 IV, 38 | being made the children of God and of the resurrection."
1181 IV, 38 | no question about another god, nor inquired about the
1182 IV, 38 | it thus: "Those whom the god of that world shall account
1183 IV, 38 | that world" to the word "god," whereby they make another
1184 IV, 38 | whereby they make another god"the god of that world;"
1185 IV, 38 | they make another god"the god of that world;" whereas
1186 IV, 38 | be read thus: "Those whom God shall account worthy of

1188 IV, 38 | had nothing to do with the god, but only with the state,
1189 IV, 38 | they themselves whom the god of that world that is, the
1190 IV, 38 | world that is, the rival god accounted worthy of the
1191 IV, 39 | disrespectful to the good God, that you should not receive
1192 IV, 39 | for a severe and terrible God. Now, when He goes on to
1193 IV, 39 | but surely as the good God, He would have frustrated
1194 IV, 39 | cause, who "prevails with God" which is what "Israel"
1195 IV, 39 | as announcers of another god that the apostles were persecuted
1196 IV, 39 | the heralds of any other god than the Creator. Then,
1197 IV, 39 | know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand." This will
1198 IV, 39 | Creator, as the terrible God, being such as the good
1199 IV, 39 | being such as the good god (of Marcion) ought not to
1200 IV, 39 | be ascribed to the good god, being such as the Creator,
1201 IV, 39 | His ignorance of the said god, could not have predicted.
1202 IV, 39 | His gifts with the good god himself; and evidently no
1203 IV, 39 | Creator a most beneficent God, or else your own god terrible
1204 IV, 39 | beneficent God, or else your own god terrible in his nature!
1205 IV, 39 | know ye that the kingdom of God is very near." Now, if the
1206 IV, 39 | emanate from your excellent god, I much doubt whether the
1207 IV, 39 | then He is no "jealous God." But let heaven and earth
1208 IV, 39 | indeed they should forget God amidst the abundance and
1209 IV, 40 | would have been unworthy of God to desire to partake of
1210 IV, 41 | may now recoil on your own God: either that he was ignorant,
1211 IV, 41 | acknowledge the Creator in that god of yours, rather than against
1212 IV, 41 | assimilating your excellent god to Him. For in the case
1213 IV, 41 | proof that he is a jealous God, when he destined the apostle,
1214 IV, 41 | that this most excellent god might plunge men into crime,
1215 IV, 41 | himself as sent by the rival god, and as being, therefore,
1216 IV, 41 | right hand of the power of God." For it was on the authority
1217 IV, 41 | sit at the right hand of God." Accordingly, after He
1218 IV, 41 | Art thou then the Son of God?" Of what God, but of Him
1219 IV, 41 | the Son of God?" Of what God, but of Him whom alone they
1220 IV, 41 | alone they knew? Of what God but of Him whom they remembered
1221 IV, 41 | regard Him as the Son of God, they therefore meant their
1222 IV, 41 | Thou art then the Son of God," to be taken in a like (
1223 IV, 42 | undoubtedly, as the Son of God, who was to sit at God's
1224 IV, 42 | of God, who was to sit at God's right hand. They would,
1225 IV, 42 | called Himself the Son of God if He had not pronounced
1226 IV, 42 | heads, (saying,) He hoped in God, let Him deliver Him." Of
1227 IV, 43conc| required by the word of God, which usually prescribes "
1228 IV, 43conc| the character of the good; God. But at no time even after
1229 IV, 43conc| not belong to the rival god, but to the same God. For
1230 IV, 43conc| rival god, but to the same God. For the same thing was
1231 IV, 43conc| that it was so written by God the Creator? He therefore
1232 V | THE CREATOR WAS THE ONLY GOD, AND THAT THE LORD JESUS
1233 V, 1intro| NOT THE PREACHER OF A NEW GOD. CALLED BY JESUS CHRIST,
1234 V, 1intro| without a beginning but God alone. Now, inasmuch as
1235 V, 1intro| apostle, although of another god; but what matter? since
1236 V, 1intro| him to set forth another god with as much eagerness as
1237 V, 1intro| the same time what was the god in whom he invited them
1238 V, 1intro| already revealed another god in which case the apostle'
1239 V, 1intro| regarded as an apostle of the god whom Christ had revealed,
1240 V, 1intro| such revelation concerning God; then there was all the
1241 V, 1intro| apostle should reveal a God who could now be made known
1242 V, 1intro| that he proclaimed no new god; that is, we shall draw
1243 V, 2 | LAW NO PROOF OF ANOTHER GOD. THE DIVINE LAWGIVER, THE
1244 V, 2 | foretold by the prophets of our God. Now, if the Creator indeed
1245 V, 2 | thereby the faith of no other god than the Creator, at whose
1246 V, 2 | at all heard of any other god from the apostle, would
1247 V, 2 | give up the law of that God whom they had left, in order
1248 V, 2 | had taken up with a new god? Since, however, the same
1249 V, 2 | Since, however, the same God was declared in the gospel
1250 V, 2 | of their faith in another god, there could have been no
1251 V, 2 | makes mention of no other god (and he could have found
1252 V, 2 | the prescription of a new god would have afforded a singularly
1253 V, 2 | from the Creator to another god. For nobody had induced
1254 V, 2 | it is the gospel of a new god which was then set forth
1255 V, 2 | because they declare no other God than the Creator, and prove
1256 V, 2 | Christ to belong to no other God than the Creator; whilst
1257 V, 3 | that Paul preached that God and that Christ whose law
1258 V, 3 | if he had published a new god. Rightly, then, did Peter
1259 V, 3 | opinion touching another god. For if such a question
1260 V, 3 | faith, however, in the same God to whom belongs the law
1261 V, 3 | when the difference of the god would, if there had only
1262 V, 3 | live, will be that same God to whom likewise belongs
1263 V, 3 | Christ belonged to another god, and on that account was
1264 V, 3 | the malediction of that god of yours, in behalf, too,
1265 V, 3 | in the case of your own god; if, on the contrary, it
1266 V, 3 | accordance with reason in your god, it is equally so nay, much
1267 V, 3 | more credible that that God had provided blessing for
1268 V, 3 | then, is this, that that God is the object of faith who
1269 V, 3 | since "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to
1270 V, 3 | like him in believing in God, are thereby justified as
1271 V, 4 | up to in the light of a god? With regard, however, to
1272 V, 4 | fulness of time was come, God sent forth His Son" the
1273 V, 4 | sent forth His Son" the God, of course, who is the Lord
1274 V, 4 | beginning. But as for that idle god, who has neither any work
1275 V, 4 | that we are the children of God, "He hath sent forth His
1276 V, 4 | turn them away from their god, although, when he said
1277 V, 4 | holds the elements to be god; but at the God of those
1278 V, 4 | elements to be god; but at the God of those elements he aimed
1279 V, 4 | emanate from that same God by whom, as we have found,
1280 V, 4 | as the messenger of a new god, why does he say that "in
1281 V, 4 | he had a mission from the god who was the enemy of circumcision.
1282 V, 4 | the love which is due to God, or that which is due to
1283 V, 4 | words, "Thou shalt love God with all thine heart, and
1284 V, 4 | bear judgment." From what God? From (Marcion's) most excellent
1285 V, 4 | Marcion's) most excellent god? But he does not execute
1286 V, 4 | the approval of the rival god, who has, in fact, bestowed
1287 V, 4 | s law. "Be not deceived, God is not mocked." But Marcion'
1288 V, 4 | not mocked." But Marcion's god can be mocked; for he knows
1289 V, 4 | also reap." It is then the God of recompense and judgment
1290 V, 4 | recompense, then from the same God must come the harvest both
1291 V, 4 | world," (I say,) but not the God who made the world "and
1292 V, 4 | the world," not unto the God who made the world. The
1293 V, 5 | herald of good, that is, of God's "grace" was well aware
1294 V, 5 | these blessings as "from God the Father and the Lord
1295 V, 5 | accurately to determine what God is declared to be the Father
1296 V, 5 | against the Creator. Marcion's god, however, could not have
1297 V, 5 | therefore, can be had of a god who has not been offended?
1298 V, 5 | salvation, it is the power of God and the wisdom of God."
1299 V, 5 | of God and the wisdom of God." And then, that we may
1300 V, 5 | the wisdom and power of God, whilst others incur perdition,
1301 V, 5 | when he asks, "Hath not God infatuated the wisdom of
1302 V, 5 | after that, in the wisdom of God, the world by wisdom knew
1303 V, 5 | world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness
1304 V, 5 | knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching
1305 V, 5 | Since then the man, not the god, of the world in his wisdom
1306 V, 5 | world in his wisdom knew not God, whom indeed he ought to
1307 V, 5 | race by their knowledge of God's works), therefore that
1308 V, 5 | s works), therefore that God, who was not acknowledged
1309 V, 5 | made up their minds about God, "and the Greeks seek after
