So as to not derail other threads , I would like to pose this question.

Who wrote what in the New Testament? Do we know for sure? If we do, what biases did they bring to the story?

Who decided  what should be "red"?

Anyone got some answers?

I am asking this question about God. In the Hebrew scriptures God seems to be vengeful, cruel, and a hundred other adjectives but when we start reading the new Testemament, it is,as if, God has had a transformation. God is a loving God, a compassionate God, protecting and caring.

Did God change or did we, the people of God, change?

Did the man, Jesus, bring about the change in how we view God?

Is God of the Old Testement and God of the New Testement the same God or is our perception that has changed?

I would really like to get my head around some of this.
