Hello, I am looking for someone to write an article on The Christian Bible. It needs to be at least 1250 words. There is a lot of argument about the work presented in both parts of the Bible. The critics are divided into three groups over the words, vocabulary and presentation in the two different parts of the Bible. The first group is known as biblical minimalists who are critical of the Old Testament. Claiming it to have very little reliable and consistent history they are unsupportive of the text presented in the Old Testament (Thompson 1998). The second group is known as biblical maximists who refute the claims made by critics of the Old Testament. Using external evidence, this group shows the compatibility the Old Testament possesses. (Kitchen 2003) Thus, they see the Old Testament as a weighty and logical presentation of history. The third group is divided between the two. Understanding the history of events like the Israeli invasion, they accept some history presented in the Old Testament but reject others like Exodus and the Conquest (Denver 2003). This essay will discuss the projection and view of God in the Old and New Testament.
Dawkins states that the God presented in the Old Testament is one who will be viewed with a very negative image by an individual (2007). This picture of God is shown to be remorseless, unjust and trivial. Also, this view is shown as a bully who cleanses ethnicities and sexualities with a ruthless spirit. God’s pride is evident in the words "Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness. and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth." So God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him. male and female He created them." (Genesis 1:26-27 RSV).
In the same way, the New Testament states Jesus to be God. This presentation of God is shown to be humble, loving and mild. Every aspect of this God cherishes creation and is protective and caring .about nature. This role of God is evident in the lines "For us, there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live. and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live".
