This example affords proof that there were always some points, and those the main points, which neither wildness nor rashness, neither the fury of opposition nor the intemperance of controversy, would venture to call in question. There is no reason to believe that Marcion, though full of resentment against the Catholic Christians, ever charged them with forging their books.
A parson was, after all, a parson, and he had done his best. A high, oozing note of the brakes, and the heavy train came to a stop. Hodder looked out of the window of the sleeper to read the sign 'Marcion' against the yellow brick of the station set down in the prairie mud, and flanked by a long row of dun-colored freight cars backed up to a factory.
"No," answered Marcion; "something familiar." "And what is that?" "A singular likeness to a discontented young man that I met some years ago in the Grove of Daphne." "But why should that interest you? Surely it was to be expected." "A thing that we expect often surprises us when we see it. Besides, my curiosity is piqued. I suspect you of keeping a secret from me." "You are jesting with me.
My object here is to expose the most subtle and ingenious plot which the world has known the Teutonic conspiracy against our Russian Empire. Rasputin's "religion" was not a novel one, as is generally supposed. It was simply a variation conceived by his mystically-inclined mind upon the one devised by Marcion in the early days of the Christian era.
II, where a full account is given of the education of the time, and what it signified. Philosophy and Theology, p. 164. See e.g., St. Justin Martyr: Dialogue with Trypho, II. Second Apology, VI. Stromata, V, 14. Against Marcion, I, 10. Resurrection of the Flesh, III. Apology, XVII. Against Celsus, II, 40. Treatise VI, § 9.
This question has, however, been thoroughly debated among German critics, the one side maintaining that Marcion mutilated Luke's Gospel, the other that Marcion's Gospel was earlier than Luke's, and that Luke's was made from it; while some, again, maintained that both were versions of an older original.
The number of words found only in the portion of the Gospel retained by Marcion and in the Acts is 231; that of words found in these retained portions and not besides in the Gospels or the two other Synoptics is 58; and both these classes together for the portions omitted in Marcion's Gospel reach a total of 62, which is decidedly under the proportion that might have been expected.
The production, early in the second century, of spurious gospels, like the Gospel of Marcion, written to furnish a literary basis for certain heretical doctrines, also the desire of the Church Fathers to have records to which they could appeal as authoritative hastened the formation of the first New Testament canon.
We take up the argument of Tertullian at the point where he begins to treat of this chapter. From the general he descends to the particular, and in c.6 Tertullian pledges himself to show in detail, that even in those parts of the Gospel which Marcion retained there was enough to refute his own system.
Yet this peculiarity, too, is faithfully reproduced in the Gospel of Marcion with the same disregard of chronology the only change being the omission of about forty-one verses from a total of three hundred and eighty.
