What if early believers debated the nature of Jesus and salvation so intensely that entire gospels were left on the cutting-room floor—labeled “heretical” but brimming with spiritual insight?

This comprehensive volume gathers the major Gnostic texts: from the riddle-like Gospel of Thomas to esoteric visions like the Apocalypse of Peter and the Revelation of Adam. Updated for modern readers, these works highlight a path of hidden knowledge, cosmic archons, and an emphasis on the divine spark within.

Included Texts:

Gospels of Thomas, Philip, Mary, Judas • – Alternative views of Christ’s teachings. Authoritative Discourse & Concept of Our Great Power • – Reflecting Gnostic liberation theology. Revelations of Paul, Peter, Adam, James • – Apocalyptic glimpses of cosmic realms and final destinies. Valentinian & Sethian Treatises • – Zostrianos, Allogenes, Marsanes, exploring layered heavens.

What You’ll Discover Inside:

A Radical Spiritual Cosmology • – Learn about archons, the Demiurge, and the soul’s quest for enlightenment. Alternative Christology • – A Savior who guides seekers to inner realization rather than mere dogma. Diverse Christian Expressions • – Witness how 2nd–4th century believers grappled with identity, scripture, and community boundaries. Clash with Orthodoxy • – Understand why official Church leaders pushed these writings underground.

Open a gateway to mysticism, self-inquiry, and a reimagined Christian story. Encounter a legacy that once rivaled—and still challenges—established tradition.
