These Are A Part of Me

From:  The Gnostic Gospels

The Gospel of Thomas.

"There is light within a man of light and it lights up the whole world - If he does not shine he is in darkness."

"Rather the kingdom is inside of you. When you come to know yourself (yourselves) then you will be known and you will realize that you are the sons of the living Father.  But if you will know know yourselves, then you dwell in poverty, and it is you who are that poverty."



"The purpose of accepting authority is to learn to outgrow it.  When one becomes mature one no longer needs any external authority.
