As I have said, not me. It's been a while, but I've noted before that I'm a life-long Presbyterian, and I inherited that historical (and now faded) Presbyterian penchant for valuing solid theological and ecclesiological study among the laity.

This = me, and I have no problem at all with someone telling me I'm getting it wrong.
Beryana, please contribute to the conversation. But please don't assume that others who may not be Catholic are just relying on the newspapers or the Wiki. No need to be amused.

I have to admit that this claim always bothers me. The "NT God" that Jesus talks about can be found all through the OT, the psalms and the prophets in particular. Meanwhile, the "OT God" sure seems to make an appearance in Revelation and elsewhere in the NT.
