Yeshua vs. Marcion: Rediscovering the One True God of Scripture and Covenant

A sacred journey through time and text—where Yeshua walks not apart from the ancient flame, but within it. Here, the God of Sinai and the God of the Cross are one and the same. We trace the golden thread of covenant, woven from Genesis to Revelation, and cast off the shadows of division to behold the beauty of a unified, eternal Name.

Philosophical Comparison: Yeshua vs. Marcion’s Jesus

Aspect	Torah-Observant Yeshua	Marcion’s Jesus
Relationship to God	One with the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.	Rejects the Hebrew God as a lower, harsh being (Demiurge).
View of the Torah	Fulfills and honors the Torah; lives it deeply.	Rejects the Torah as flawed and outdated.
Connection to Israel	Rooted in Jewish identity, feasts, and promises.	Detached from Israel and its traditions.
Purpose of Salvation	Restores relationship with the Creator through covenant.	Rescues people from the Creator and the material world.
View of Scripture	Affirms and fulfills the Hebrew Scriptures (Tanakh).	Rejects much of the Bible, keeping only altered texts.
Human Responsibility	Calls people to covenant faithfulness with grace.	Offers escape without moral responsibility.
Philosophical Tone	Harmony of justice and mercy, rooted in history.	Dualistic escape from the world, abstract and disconnected.

Philosophical Reflection for the Heart:

If you’ve ever felt guilt, shame, or confusion because of how harsh “God” was presented—
know that Marcionism still echoes today,
often hiding in teachings that say the Old Testament God is mean, or that the Law is bad.

But the true Yeshua is not at war with the God of Moses.
He is the embodiment of that very God’s mercy and faithfulness.
He did not come to cancel the story of Israel, but to complete it with compassion, purpose, and truth.

So if your soul feels torn between a cold judge and a distant savior—breathe.
That is not the voice of Yeshua.
He is the Good Shepherd who knows His sheep—and who walks fully
in the light of Torah, not in rejectioon of it.

Meditation: The True Light of Yeshua

Breathe deep, O soul, for the path is not split.

The voice of Yeshua echoes not against Moses, but walks beside him.

The Torah was not a prison, but a promise.

And Yeshua did not come with fire to burn it,

but with flame to fulfill it.

Do not fear the ancient mountain, for the smoke has cleared,

and the same God who thundered on Sinai,

whispers now in gentleness through His Son.

This is not a tale of two gods,

but of One love unfolding through time—

Just and kind, firm and faithful.

Yeshua is not the stranger come to save us from the Creator,

He is the very Word of the Creator, become flesh, to bring us home.

He did not call us away from covenant, but deeper into it.

So rest now—not in escape, but in embrace.

Not in rejection, but return.

The God of Israel has not changed.

And Yeshua is His clearest face.

Final Blessing

בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם
Baruch Atah Adonai Eloheinu Melech ha'olam
Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the Universe,
who reveals His unity through His Word, and draws us into His everlasting covenant.

May we walk in the light of Yeshua (ישוע), trust the goodness of Hashem (השם), and carry the wisdom of the whole story into every step of our lives.

Shalom and blessings on your journey!
