Congratulations to






I answered the door the other day and greeted a couple of (Jesus Sellers) as I like to call them. Others might call them missionaries or spreaders of the gospel. I never turn them down when they come to my door. I only require one thing in return for my hospitality. If I sit and listen to them and their message, then they must do the same for me. Most of the time the sellers accept the offer and we sit down to coffee and friendly debate. Recently I had a trio of Baptists come to my door and they accepted my terms and we sat down to talk. For the first time ever, though, they asked me to go first. I talked about my Gnostic faith and how I have been involved with that fellowship for almost 30 years. Not surprisingly, none of them ever heard of Gnosticism or Gnostics. I talked to them about Nicaea, and the early Christian Architects. I showed them the similarities of certain pre christian deities and those of Christ himself. Then I showed them my Gnostic Bible, with books they never heard of like 'The Gospel Of Truth, The Gospel of Thomas, and The Gospel Of Mary Magdalene.' There is even a 'Gospel Of Judas' which was recently found and translated.
After my little spiel, the three individuals from the Baptist Church thanked me for sharing that with them, and left me a pamphlet. Just yesterday I had one of them come back. He wanted to know more about Gnosticism and how he could convert to it if he so chose. I showed him a well known Gnostic teaching which goes like this.

Jesus wanted his disciples to be seekers and seers. In the work "Pistis Sophia" he instructed them, "Do not leave off searching day and night." He warned that inner truth would bring turmoil, but with the turmoil would come astonishment." He explained further, "Let him who seeks continue seeking until he finds. When he finds, he will become troubled. When he becomes troubled, he will become astonished, and he will rule over all things.

In essence, Gnosticism is a journey for inner truth, and self awareness. With each piece of that truth we find ourselves more aware of what is real and not real. With that knowledge comes a greater power and understanding that eventually leads us back to our God in heaven. To expound on it further would take more time than I have today, and would probably try the few who are reading this' patience.
In the end, my Baptist friend had to accept that he was responsible for him, not Jesus, God, or any man or church. Only he could save himself, only he can redeem himself. Once he does that, he will begin his own personal journey to Gnosis (knowledge).
I have watched Gnosticism grow in the near 50 years I have lived, and am very happy to see that what the Catholic church once tried to eradicate, is alive and flourishing again. One of the greatest things I love about my beliefs is that I have a tolerance for all faiths, and all walks of life. I don't profess to say I am right, or that Gnosticism is the only truth. I only share what I believe and respect the beliefs of those around me.
For those who may wish to know more about the Gnostics, just note me and I will provide you with any answers to questions you may have...

My prayers go out to my beautiful friends Celeste, Lou, Lil, Liz, and Chas.

To my friends and watchers, I wish you the best of weekends and a prosperous week ahead

To my beautiful girlfriend Mia, I love you honey
