The Christian Gnostics don't need any church or religion to KNOW GOD!![]()
The Roman Church did all it could to suppress the teachings of gnosis and the laughing of Jesus. It succeeded so well that it now seems strange to even suggest that Christianity was originally about AWAKENING! But in the middle of the twentieth century some of the texts of the original Christians were found in a cave near Nag Hammadi in Egypt. In these texts the message of awakening is proclaimed loud and clear.![]()

History of Baptism
Adult vs. Infant Baptism:
In the New Testament, baptism is reserved for adults who make a voluntary decision to join the Christian Church. From the 6th century on, infant baptism was permitted. This may have been due partly to the general Christiainization of society (leading to few, if any, adults who could convert) and concern with Original Sin. One of the issues driving some Protestants was the question of whether infants should be baptized and some founded churches on the belief that baptism is for adults only.
Baptism: What is Baptism? How does one Baptize? What does the Bible say about Baptisms?
The Wisdom of the Gnostics is considered to be esoteric in nature. Esoteric is usually explained as 'meant for the few'. But the word esoteric also means 'inner' and it is in this context that we explain the Gnostic teachings; they all refer to inner things - thoughts, feelings, consciousness, awareness and understanding.![]()
