There’s an idea that exists that at some point in history, the church suppressed several texts and shielded our eyes from some of the more dubious and salacious antics of biblical characters. Supposedly, the figures who have been a mainstay influence for countless generations possess a darker, more insidious side to them and those who have since been perceived as perfect and pious are actually flawed and depraved. So according to this idea, the church sought to cover up the fables that might ruin their saviours. They banned certain books, burned volumes en masse and in some cases buried the contents of these darkly delectable texts in unmarked areas of the desert. So what were they trying to hide?...

    Please make more of these kinds of videos, my father is a pastor and has been glued to the screen since I showed him this. We may not practice our faith the same but we both love the knowledge you've shown us today.

    The Gospel of Thomas is a experiential writing. It can only be understood through personal experience. To "drink from my mouth" is to experience what I am telling you. What are you seeking? Eternal life What must you have in order to live? "He who has found the body is superior to the world" Plato described this world as a world of shadows. Padmesambhava said that when you die you will see your body lying where you died. That at first you will feel liberated and joyous. But that feeling will go away and you will wander the world in bodiless form; because you will still be trapped in linear time. Then, after you tire of wandering, you will seek rebirth into another life. In Thomas, the "images that came before you" are the faces of your previous lives; which you will see in your inward, and outward, journey. Detachment is the key
  • It didn’t give authority to the church or it’s so called leaders.. it freed the person to find the true path Christ showed us..
  • Ive bee listening to this channel for two days nonstop, so grateful I found your channel!
  • @HallowedLife
    One of my favorite gnostic gospels is The Sophia of Jesus, Infancy, and Revelation of Paul. These gospels are very unique and it would be really cool if you look into them. My recommendation is Revelation of Paul as it speaks of the last days and Paul witnessing the brutality of Angels tormenting Sinners. Trust me, it's crazy.😬
  • @SilverRiMiX
    I think the quote about eating/being eaten by a lion talks about conquering vs being consumed by sin/negativity. Just my own interpretation, though.
  • @Goodpizzaa
    The Legends of HIstory coming with me with a 2 hour video! Ty my dude!
  • @antixjenn7041
    Thank you for bringing this public... without a religious spin on it. Love your channel and all your work! Much love and many thanks 👍🙏😊
  • I am fascinated with the exquisite quality of your content!! I will be binge watching your channel forever more!! 💕 Thank you!
  • @LRM5195
    This is awesome! I just bought the Gnostic Gospels and it’s been interesting to say the least
  • @SilverRiMiX
    I also think the one about the 5 trees unchanging through weather and seasons talks about 5 fundamental truths which remain true no matter where and what they're applied to.
  • I absolutely have to correct this video about the lion. That part is not about lions or even animals at all. Lion is a symbol of power. So when a lion eats a man, that is a man consumed by the power he holds, so that the power becomes him. He is no longer in charge. Conversely if he eats the power he becomes the power and it becomes part of his arsenal rather than being in control of him. Think cults of personality and such.
  • @janedoe-dy3rr
    Some fairly good interpretations. There's more "hidden" versions of what are called universal laws (the "Father's Laws" that were hidden from us by the "state and the temple dogs"). For instance, the "gender" question? He is saying "Balance yourself--Divine Masculine AND Divine Feminine." The Universal Laws are all over the internet. Meditate on them for a while. Eventually, when you can see how they work (all around us and the cosmos) with your own eyes/mind--come back to this gospel--it'll make a LOT more sense. It's really a beautiful collection of universal wisdom for humanity. Another hint: the "money" and "pearl" metaphors are referring to wisdom/"the Father's" Universal Laws--not money or material.
  • Released on “Yom Kippur”. Thank you Brother. Peace be with you 💚🧏‍♀️🦋🙏🏻🧠📲
  • From one artist to another,I fully appreciate the work and investment of time shown in Maestro Lottersberger's exquisite work. It isn't only the quality,but what a prolific illustrator. Those are a lot of pieces.
  • @sanityapparel
    This by far the longest video i have ever sat through and it took me 2 days to watch it. Thanks
  • The Gospel of Thomas is not in the canonical Bible. However, it may be an extremely early Gospel. It claims to be authored by Jesus himself (Perhaps, just after the resurrection. See Acts 1:3 and the Thomas Prologue). Thomas also purports to have been scribed by Jesus' brother Jude Thomas, who probably also wrote Jude, the second last book in the New Testament. This would mean that Thomas is unique being not only written by Jesus the author and finisher of our faith but is also an early apostolic writing having been scribed by Thomas. This Gospel also appears to be the foundational scripture underpinning the other apostolic writings found within what is often called the New Testament. For those interested in a more in-depth examination regarding how this "Testimony of Jesus", which is the spirit of prophecy, inspired the apostolic writers to pen their own letters and Gospels of the New Testament... for these diligent ones and even for myself, it may be helpful to type a search for - "the original gospel authored by Jesus Christ" takethescroll. Blessings on your search for truth.
  • saying 10, “I’ve cast fire on the world, and look, I’m watching over it until it blazes.”. I understand this fire to be Love. listen to your own heart, and you may hear the blaze. ...pardon me if I am stating the obvious.

    19:00 saying 9. No i think (imo) the sewer is a man who reaps what he sews. You go around being a good person. Many people dont appreciate you, some dont even notice at all, dont stick to the one place, keep sewing seeds of good intentions then when your seeds are finally planted in good soil it will return EXPONENTIALLY back beyond the efforts of all your troubles. 😇
