Gospel of Peter

Simple, gnostic, and gnostic.

Gnosticism was a heresy that taught that Jesus was one of the many sent from God (to some degree) to teach a secret truth that will enter one into heaven. It is a pre-Christian religion that tried to incorpriate Christ into it's theology.

Both these Gospel's date back to the 3rd Century, with the first gospel of the sorts to be found is (if I remember correctly) the Gospel of Thomas.

God bless,
Mikey

There were pagan gnostics too. We should not take anything they wrote seriously as they certainly were not Christians. You could say asking a Gnostic about Christianity is like asking a practicer of Santeria about Catholicism.
