Published 2024-08-03
Its Gnostic leanings, coupled with its exclusion from the Bible, have cast a long shadow of mystery over this ancient text, leaving scholars and spiritual seekers alike to try to figure its true meaning and place in Christian history, and I am certainly one of them.

I have been reading the Gospel of Thomas for a couple of years now. I have notes and questions written out regarding each one. As I was typing all these out to share, I was really able to take them all in and there are many that I couldn't make sense out of but now I can. Then there are the ones towards the end of the video (example 105) that I can't get a handle on and I am wondering if they are just lost in translation?? That is the only way it makes sense to me. Let me know what you think in the comments.

Here's a couple of notes worth mentioning for the listener: Thomas the apostle migrated to India to spread the gospel there in the first century around 52 AD and he was martyred there around 72 AD. So he lived there in India for 20 years after the time of Christ. The alleged 'gospel of Thomas' was written in the mid 2nd century in the midst of a wave of gnosticism heresy going around and it was discovered in Egypt, somewhere that the apostle Thomas didn't live or preach. So it's safe to say that it is an absolute fact that there is no way the apostle Thomas could have written it or taught it. Gnosticism was a heresy that barely began in the end of the 1st Century in the Mediterranean area, probably after Thomas had already suffered martyrdom, and remember the aforementioned fact that he had lived and died in India, not the Mediterranean. This written work of gnosticism was a heresy that the apostolic fathers of the early church protested and prevented the spread of in early Christianity. an original apostle would have never taught it. Thomas actually is believed to have founded seven churches/communities in India, much as the traditional churches of the original apostolic tradition. Thomas the apostle didn't teach gnosticism in the Mediterranean, he spread the true gospel of Christ to India, that is a fact of history. This alleged book is definitely a fake/forgery, I wouldn't waste my time taking it seriously or listening to it. It's important to know history. Thomas was an apostle, a preacher, a bishop, and a martyr all in the name of Christ. He was not of the gnostic sect. Don't let history be forgotten or lost in this wave of 'new age Christianity'...
