"To the Gnostics,, the Demiurge was a limited secondary god who created the world; since their was no possible contact between the supreme incommunicable God and the visible world."
M. Vincent, "Vincent's Word Studies on the New Testament."
Actually, the only place in the New Testament where the Greek word demiourgos appears is in reference to the God of the Bible, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and is translated "builder" in Hebrews 11:10, NIV
"For he (Abraham) was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God."
As for Christians:
"....there is no God but one. For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords"), yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live.
But not everyone knows this...."
I Corinthians 8:4-7
