Jesus said to them “when you make the two into one and when you make the inner like the outer and the outer like the inner and the upper like the lower, and when you make male and female into a single one so that the male will not be male nor the female be female when you make eyes in a place of the eyes, hand in place of a hand, A foot in place of a foot and an image in place of an image - then you will enter the kingdom
“The gospel of Thomas”

I am passionately discovering the gospels that were not included in the New Testament including most significantly, the gospel of Mary.

As a Jew, I never felt drawn to the New Testament in any way, and as it turns out, the NT skips all the bits about connecting within to become whole unified indivisible, that out greatest connection to god and ourselves is through the heart.

The potent period of time that existed after Christ’s death was a time when Judaism met Gnostic Christianity, a break from tradition, and a philosophy based on personal spiritual authority rather than organised hierarchical authority. Unsurprisingly gnostic Christians were persecuted . Their message deviated from their Jewish tribes beliefs, and the romans weren’t exactly open minded! it was also quite different to what Christianity ‘became’. These gospels all uphold that within the heart is god, not out there somewhere. Not in someone else’s judgement for sure.

These gospels all highlighted the significance of a love that was Jesus and Mary. A love that inevitable made resurrection possible through Mary’s heart. ... and the birth of Christ consciousness was (re)born.

Basically, it was all about love. It always was and it always will be.
