The real one: God, who created the universe (Genesis 1:1). The others: the rest are mere gods (small "g"), all false; all invented. Names of the falsely-worshiped gods include baal, baal-zebub, baal-berith, baal-peor, cemosh, milcom, ashtoreth, nivchaz, tartak, anamelech (and others).

A:These days, very few people read the Bible carefully enough or in enough detail to notice the contrast between the loving God of the New Testament and the vengeful God of the Old Testament.

He set out to prove his doctrine of the two Gods by writing a book called the Antitheses (the 'contrary statements'). In it he showed that there were severe inconsistencies between the Old Testament and the teachings of Jesus and Paul.
