#1 GNOSTIC HERESIES AND MODERN BIBLE VERSIONS

"Gnosticism is a philosophy that began between 200 and 350 A.D. that had its headquarters in Alexandria, Egypt. Its beginning leaders were Clement of Alexandria, Origen, and Eusebius. It is still practiced in the United States and in other countries today.

Gnosticism comes from the Greek word "GNOSIS" which means "knowledge." The followers claimed special knowledge apart from the Bible. Their heretical doctrines are found in the Greek manuscripts which came from Alexandria such as the Vatican and the Sinai which the Gnostics corrupted in at least 356 places.

Among the major doctrines held by the Gnostics are these: the denial of the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, the denial of His virgin birth, the denial of His miracles, the denial of His bodily resurrection, and the denial that Jesus was also the Christ."

@astrofrk Well books contain dead letters, Spirit bring the dead letters to life. It matters how one dies because mors janua vitae.

[astrofrk]

@LifeLibertyLove I think I understand what you mean. However, the biblical dates don't make sence and do not add up to three days and as little as a day and a half. What does it matter how one dies? Isn't how one lives more important,what they say? One cannot find elightenment by reading a book written by men anymore than I can know you by reading a book about you written by a third source. The only way to really know you is direct communication and that is gnosis.

@astrofrk Death and Resurrection is very important to Gnostics but you must first understand what Death and Resurrection means. First Jesus was resurrected and then he died the third day.

[astrofrk]

@LifeLibertyLove I would again have to say: "SOME believed" in bodily Resurrection, virgin birth, ect... not all did.

I personally believe the one within Jesus (the Logos) was resurrected. What matters to most Gnostic Christians isn't how he was born or died anyways, or even who he was. What's most import was how he lived and what he taught. Blind faith is not required, a very personal relationship with the Christ, now within us and Sophia (Holy Spirit) is required and this is Gnosis.

[astrofrk]

@LifeLibertyLove Thank you very much, you are far closer than most on YouTube who talk about us. Cathars were Gnostics but we vary more than a Catholic does from Penticostals. The world is an illusion or test and the greater reallity of the Theos (God) is the true reality. However, it is not ourselves but Yeshua (Jesus) within us that is our salvation, by my belief. Therefore, there is no need for clergy if you listen to Yeshua and Sophia (The Holy Spirit) clergy isn't in the bible. WBS.

The description in this video is blatently false to the point of lieing. I suggest the owner of the video correct it.

Gnostics acknowledge... the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His miracles, His bodily resurrection, that Jesus was also the Christ.

Gnostics believe all these things, in fact they believed them before the mainstream church beleived them.

[LifeLibertyLove]

@astrofrk Gnosticism could be used to describe a very vague system(yet very complex in details), for example I would describe the Cathars as Gnostics. Anyone who believes the world is an illusion/and/or/lower creation and believes knowledge of self is more important to salvation than belief I would describe as a Gnostic.

[astrofrk]

The Gospel of Thomas predates the Cannon Gospels. I am a Valentinian Gnostic Christian, who followed Paul, I have nothing to do with Clement. There were a dozen different Gnostic beliefs. Anyone that says "Gnostics Believed..." is a liar and I can prove it. The Nician Churches wiped us out centuries ago and we are back. We grow while mainstream churches empty because people see past the lies of Clergy. Jesus did no tell you to go to church but to BE the church, that'swhy they wiped us out.

And of course when I say Trinitarianism, I'm not a Modalist (those folks say that there is only one "person" in the Godhead, I disagree, it is three eternal divine persons, but not "Three Gods" as Muslims accuse us of believing, or as apparently Mormons believe).

[XSC3]

@turtle4aire the Gnostic idea that the creator and the "Father" Jesus spoke of are two different (rival) Gods (or that the God worshiped by the Jews is a false pretender) are flat out wrong. I'm a Trinitarian. See, this can be argued from Scripture, but also it's the Tradition of the Church. If there is some doubt, quibbling over bible verses, we can look at the constant interpretation of the Fathers, who inherited from the Apostles (the canon itself relies upon tradition).
