DUDE.... You have to go to the next verse ~ The Three Things are repeated by Jesus himself! They are the next three things that he said!

Thomas and the other Nag Hammadi texts are for me the missing link...among the world's great texts of wisdom. The canonical bible simply doesn't resonate for me on any level, and to see the numerous connections between these gospels, Buddhist texts, Taoist texts, the Hermetic Qabbalah, etc.--good stuff. They also compliment discoveries in quantum physics.

its like the quran, it gives cryptic messages open towards different obsure interrperetations and muslims say there can be no centralization, everyone has their choice on what the quran interprets... its not like the boring bible we have now that's straight forward and plain...

this is very cool. keep opening those gnostic texts and spreading the word of God that has been suppressed and hidden from us for all these years!!!!

"Compare me to something and tell me what I resemble?".
You are like Moses and you resemble THAT Prophet of God that was promised. (Deut18:18), should be the answer if they knew the prophecy.
If Thomas had told them that Jesus was that prophet the others would have stone him but the others would "burn" for it is the truth.
QED.

Look at the back of the American dollar Bill, you'll see a pyramid with an eye at the top, count the layers and you'll see there are twelve layers and the thirteenth is the eye at the top.
There are Twelve constellations around No. 13. The Sun.
There's more to this number than meets the eye.

In fact, it was common practice in the ancient world to provide a simpler set of teachers for the common public while having a more complex, more advanced, "mystical" set of teachings for a smaller, more specialized group. Many religions, though, have suffered from the expulsion of the latter.

drat, just accidentally removed your middle comment when trying to respond to it. you said basically that The Bible as now compiled should be seen as a primer of core texts, but that the Apocrypha should be seen as suitable for deeper study. My hope is that most Christians would consider this. It is certainly unorthodox (by definition), but that doesn't mean it's worthless or "scripted by Satan".
