What if early believers debated the nature of Jesus and salvation so intensely that entire gospels were left on the cutting-room floor-labeled "heretical" but brimming with spiritual insight? This comprehensive volume gathers the major Gnostic texts: from the riddle-like Gospel of Thomas to esoteric visions like the Apocalypse of Peter and the Revelation of Adam. Updated for modern readers, these works highlight a path of hidden knowledge, cosmic archons, and an emphasis on the divine spark within. Included Texts: * Gospels of Thomas, Philip, Mary, Judas - Alternative views of Christ's teachings. * Authoritative Discourse & Concept of Our Great Power - Reflecting Gnostic liberation theology. * Revelations of Paul, Peter, Adam, James - Apocalyptic glimpses of cosmic realms and final destinies. * Valentinian & Sethian Treatises - Zostrianos, Allogenes, Marsanes, exploring layered heavens. What You'll Discover Inside: * A Radical Spiritual Cosmology - Learn about archons, the Demiurge, and the soul's quest for enlightenment. * Alternative Christology - A Savior who guides seekers to inner realization rather than mere dogma. * Diverse Christian Expressions - Witness how 2nd-4th century believers grappled with identity, scripture, and community boundaries. * Clash with Orthodoxy - Understand why official Church leaders pushed these writings underground. Open a gateway to mysticism, self-inquiry, and a reimagined Christian story. Encounter a legacy that once rivaled-and still challenges-established tradition.
