Authors Note The Gospel of Thomas was discovered along with other Gospels, in Nag Hammadi, Egypt, in 1945. These Gospels were rejected by the established church and judged as heretical. You will come to understand why, when I disclose the correct interpretation of the secret teachings of Jesus, as given in the Gospel of Thomas. There are 114 logia in the Gospel of Thomas. The term logia (Greek: "λόγια", "sayings, utterances, oracles", or singular: "λόγιον", logion) is the term applied to collections of sayings credited to Jesus. Where I have quoted from the New Testament, I have used the King James Version. Introduction Prepare to be astounded, as secrets hidden from the world for over 2,000 years are revealed in their entirety. They are no less than the true Gospel of the Kingdom, spoken of in Matthew 24:14 ‘And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world, for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.’ When this Gospel is revealed to all nations, it will cause a change in the world such as has never been seen in the history of mankind. It will herald a new way of life, one of love, peace and harmony, and it will open the gates of Heaven. The message and the teachings were a blessing to those who sought peace, harmony and equality, but to those who were selfish and blind to the spirit, they were a threat and a curse, and therefore the true Gospel of the Kingdom had to be wiped from the face of the earth. As it was, so it is. To protect the message and the teachings from the selfish and spiritually blind, a secret language was used, an esoteric language that would confound the minds of the intellectual who understood things only materialistically. Every effort was made to wipe out the secret teachings, including the destruction of written records and anyone spreading such dangerous doctrines, which were a threat to the wealth and power of the few. The first casualty was Christ, the second was his followers, and the third was the Truth that was revealed. Even then the Testament could not be completely silenced and so the selfish and spiritually blind that had retained their positions of wealth and power did the only thing left to them. They took control of Christianity and 1 changed the teachings in their favour, thereby denying the people the true Gospel of the Kingdom, a Gospel that could only be revealed once more by a Christ. That time has come, for these are the last days of the rule of the anti-Christs. If you have read the Gospel of Thomas, then you have read the most important document that this generation has in its possession. It is no less than the revelation of the Gospel of the Kingdom that heralds the end times. The Gospel of the Kingdom has until now, been replaced by the gospel of denial, a gospel designed to subvert the true message and teachings of salvation. The gospel of denial has been used to subdue and turn people away from the Kingdom, to blind and enslave them into the servitude of the few. Salvation cannot be found in the gospel of denial, and part of its appeal, has been that it falsely absolves people of their responsibility for themselves and their sins. It is a gospel of deception that seduces people with tales of signs and wonders, of magic and mystery. It is a gospel preached by the dead for the exaltation of materialism. It is a vine planted outside of the Father’s house. It is a gospel that opposes Love and Truth. Jesus was the first begotten of the dead, (see Revelation 1:5) the first to find life in the Kingdom, the first Christ, the first to be anointed by the Holy Spirit, which is the Spirit of Love; the Spirit of God. For it is written that God is Love. Love is the Father’s Law and the Father’s Way. All Truth is found in Love, and there also is found salvation. The mission of a Christ (one who is anointed by the Holy Spirit) is to bring forth the Christhood in others, to teach them Love, and to remind them of who and what they are, and where they came from. Yes and to teach them and demonstrate to them, what is required for their return home, to be with our Father. The Gospel of Thomas Fully Interpreted Listen and understand, for the Kingdom has arrived once more, and the Gospel of the Kingdom is with you. Go and shout it from the rooftops that the true teachings of Christ are being restored, and that change the world has waited for is upon them. 3 Chapter 1 Thomas begins ….……. Page 5 Logion 1 ….…….
