what happened to god between the o.t. and n.t? did he have a life changing experience that calmed him, maybe the o.t. was his teenage years full of emotion and testosterone and the o.t. was him moving towards middle age, settling down (starting a family). did he take a break? maybe go exploring the indian sub-continent...........maybe he found god.

due to nature of the inflatable volunteers suffering a myriad of perpendicular, post-ironic self-aware, identity replacements. one can only float ideas that sink to the surface and drown in a sea of time-free science. like a cat tied to a pole.

the farmer has a wife?


He did not change at all in character.
Malachi 3:6 - For I, Jehovah, do not change ..."

He went through a process of two becomings.

1.) The Word became flesh.

2.) The last Adam became a life giving Spirit.

He went through the process of being in a form to dispense Himself into man.

why? can you cite a single example where God arbitrarily executed divine justice upon anyone without giving them prior warning and seeking their repentance? No neither can I.

The word became flesh is not from Mosaic traditions but is a New Testament innovation borrowed from Greek philosophy.

"the Word became flesh" was stated in terms that Gnostics would understand (hopefully) not in order to agree with all their philosophical ideas but to contradict certain of them.
