The MEN who compiled The Bible didn’t always have good reasons for what they left out. A lot of it was about early Church CONTROL over the masses. There’s NOTHING wrong with seeking Truth(s)...isn’t that what we do here? It’s exactly what we do here. It’s about awakening and hopeful eventual ascension and I’ll take direct quotes from The Christ from The Bible OR from gnostic gospels. Most of the quotes in Thomas ARE IN THE BIBLE.
People used to be burned at the stake for seeking Truth(s). Claiming “falsehoods” is the same as siding with those who burned the seekers. After our awakening we have learned that THE MAJORITY of what we’ve been taught in our lives is full of corruption and falsehoods. Right? Try reading the 114 quotes in Thomas and DISCERN that yes, much of what’s there IS IN THE BIBLE. Therefore those who compiled The Bible knew about these Truth(s). This isn’t Enoch.
That's rich considering how the Gospels are chock full of pagan/mithraic, Jewish, and Greek neoplatonism ideas disguised as "Christian" storylines and symbols. If anything, the Gospel of Thomas is closer to the original teachings of Jesus and the Gospels are a corruption with a bunch of disinfo tacked on.
That comment is in reference to MAN compiling The Bible and determining those 50 or so books should be left out. The organized Church needed to control the populace. That’s what powerful men do. Haven’t you learned that yet? In no way have I denigrated the beautiful Bible. Your focusing on my Post, and my motives with it aren’t productive. If you don’t like it, fine. Downdoot the Post and move on.

The gospel of Thomas wasn’t discovered until 1945, so how could they include it?

What were the reasons they gave? What are your reasons for suggesting we reject their reasons?

So then what does the gospel of Thomas have to do with this?
