Why weren't the Gnostic gospels included in the Bible? What is pseudepigrapha? Why were the Gnostic gospels written? What is Gnosticism?

A question about the canon and what should Christians hold as authoritative.

Shakti , Our Lady of Babalon .
Scarlet Woman OF Hierophants ,
Priestess and oracle , goddess and whore.
Draws your veil and reveals the mysteries of the serpent.
Teach your Vama Marga - Marga Dakshina .
Let me step inside in thy womb
and my sword find your calyx.
The creation of the To Soma Heliakon , my solar child.
Priestess of the temple of Eleusis ,
Thy mystical Kalas roam my body
And your rubiae stellae is jewelry that kiss.
In Eucharistic communion of Viparita Maituna .
Unite water and fire, Shin and Teth ,
Mercury and sulfur, which creates the Azoth
It is a flame that burns without burning .
My Star Sapphire .
The priest is your slave
Your flower is the host of the Eucharist that I put in my mouth
And it reveals the arcane Hierophant of the Arcanum Arcanorum
“Evoe ho . I acchel
Epelthon.epelthon . Evoe . Iao “.
Scream priests and prostitutes at the time of communion
The bread and wine is the Phallus which houses the womb .
Divine Shakti dance with me .
Lead me through the valleys adorned with stars
And abide the altars of the land where Hierophant build their temples .
Songs chant the divine Khali Nahemah .
And his passions immolate on the altar of desire .
Goddess Kundaline , serpentine fire that ascends to heaven .
Burning my flesh , in orgiático erotic feast.
Nullifies my self and my body rebuilds .
It shatters my spirit takes me with gold,
To that inhabits the cradle of the beginning of time .
To Soma Heliakon

Tu Venus orta mari venias tu filia Patris,
Exaudi penis carmina blanda, precor,
Ne sit culpa mates nobis furuisse viriles,

Sed caleat cunnus semper amore meo

Although 75% of Americans believe the Bible is divine in some way, many live as though the only things which exist are endless chatter and contradictions.

Is the gnostic texts a doctrine of demons or is it something Constantine of Rome never wanted to include in the cannon of alternative reasons? Let's discuss. Please subscribe comment and follow my page on gnostic and biblical research on Facebook called "Ancient Church of Yeshua Melchizedic".

Including quotes and summaries of the "lost gospels" and "banned books". Never again be caught off guard or confounded by references to the Gospel of Thomas, the Gospel of Peter, the Gospel of Mary, or the Gospel of Judas.

The Christian Conspiracy: The Orthodox Suppression of Original Gnostic Christianity, by Ralph Macchio, Part Two.
(chapters 6 - 10)
This book chronicles the replacement of an original Christianity which was diverse and Gnostic in character by an orthodox pseudo-theology defined by a narrow set of doctrines quite different in scope and spirit. If it shatters any image, it is the myth that there was an "original" Christianity, somewhat in the image of modern fundamentalism, where all held to the four Gospels, the concept of Jesus as God, His death for our sins, the resurrection of the body at the last day, etc. Rather it lifts the curtain on a profoundly different "original" Christianity--a rich set of doctrines in the Gnostic tradition defined across many sects existing at Christianity's very earliest beginnings including even the communities and teachings of St. Paul and the Nazorean community at Jerusalem, and including doctrines of reincarnation, the origins of evil in a class of beings called "archons," the preexistence of souls, the divine spark in each, therefore the divinity of each--all befitting the universalist character Jesus in fact had. And it chronicles the grim, often political and ultimately violent destruction of this diversity and these doctrines by the end of the fourth century, their replacement by a stark orthodoxy of distorted and narrowed dogmas, the destruction or suppression of the many gospels by an arbitrary and edited canon of four, and the concomitant establishment of a power structure set in a hierarchy which moved increasingly to the denial of freedom of belief and its final alliance with the power of the state.

3:45:15 Conclusion

Did you know that for 2,000 years, the church universally condemned same-sex relationships? Today, we're diving deep into the controversy surrounding the Bible and homosexuality. Are progressive Christians right when they say the Bible doesn't address it, or is it taken out of context? We'll examine key passages like Mark 7 and Romans 1, and discuss the historical and cultural contexts to uncover the truth. Stay tuned to see if recent interpretations hold up against traditional biblical exegesis!

in August 1991, Ron and his associates were kidnapped in eastern Turkey while killing time, waiting to pick up an excavation permit for Noah's Ark. They were held for 21 days and it was a terrible experience for all affected. When he returned home, Ron sat down and had me (his wife) record him telling of his experience. He believed that all people who follow Jesus and work in God's vineyard will be persecuted and this is to be expected. He wanted people to understand this and to persevere and not get discouraged by the slings and arrows of the prince of this planet, because God remains, ultimately, in control. His permit was rescinded as was the funding after this terrible event. He concluded that either it was not time to excavate, or that God did not want it done at all.

This video was originally posted and needed some revisions. If you viewed the original, PLEASE view this one as many needful changes and additions have been made. Mary Nell discusses the Ark of the Covenant and what it meant to Ron, how it affected him and his life and Ron discusses experiences connected to the discovery. The position of the Ark of the Covenant during the Day of Atonement was of special importance to Ron so graphics have been added to help make it clearer. Also, his telling about meeting Jesus in the Garden Tomb has been edited to include parts missing from the first video. Thank you all for your comments which helped me know I needed to revise this video.
