Tertullian,
Ante-Nicene Fathers Vol. III, Anti-Marcion…
(1885)
“ The Connection of the True Christ with the Dispensation of the Old Testament Asserted.But we now advance a step further on, and challenge (as we promised to do) the very Gospel of Marcion, with the intention of thus proving that it has been adulterated. For it is certain [1] that the whole aim at which he has strenuously laboured even in the drawing up of his Antitheses, centres in this, that he may establish a diversity between the Old and the New Testaments, so that his own Christ may be separate from the Creator, as belonging to this rival god, and as alien from the law and the prophets. ”
