Wouldn't it be great if everyone had full time connection to his/her higher
power so there wouldn't be any need for Religion. When Jesus said "Be Like
Me" &" "The Kingdom of God is here at hand", I think that's what he ment. If
one comes from Love, one always does "the right thing"

The gnostic interpretation that you refer to was a major
movement in early Christianity and there is reason to
believe that even Christianity's creator, Paul, was gnostic.
Whoever wrote the gospel attributed to Thomas certainly
was and it bears reading. The Roman church nearly succeeded
in stamping out all evidence that the gnostic movement and
its writings ever existed.
