I’ve seen similar with the gnostics. Not that well read on it but from what I understand many of the times god is referred to in the Bible it’s multiple gods who were actually not gods (this has to do with translation of original texts over time). It definitely seems new age with some references from the apocrypha.
Personally idk much about the original history and translations.
Example: allegedly amen was a decree ordered by Amen-Ra and adapted over time not a direct Christian statement.
Example 2: the violence in the Old Testament vs the new is largely due to the fact it was NOT the same god mentioned in the New Testament but a series of humans who were over time lumped into one category
I’m not that well read on it just providing highlight arguments I have seen from the scholars of the old texts.
