Verse 77 of the Gospel of Thomas states: "Jesus said, It is I who am the light which is above them all. From me did the all come forth. Split a piece of wood, and I am there. Life up a stone and you will find me there."
Verse 16 of the Gospel of Truth says, referring to Jesus, "... the one who is addressed as the Savior, that being the work he is to preform for the redemption of those who are ignorant of the Father, while in the name of the gospel is the proclamation of hope, being discovered by those who search for him."
Verse 8 of the Gospel of Mary : "The blessed one said, Peace be with you. Receive my peace unto yourselves. For the Son of Man is within you. Follow after him! Those who seek will find him."
Around 200 C.E., Bishop Irenaeus insisted there were only four true gospels and all others were worthless I including those that versus are above. In his Against Heresies he established it was a sin and "heretical" to question any of the church's teachings and beliefs.
In contrast, those vilified as Gnostics believed that Christian beliefs could be open to change, particularly with new knowledge.
Gnostics were given the severest of attacks among the heretics, Now that these gospels can speak for themselves, such charges are not that simple, and there is a new story and evidence about their strong faith and belief in a real Jesus.
