christian theology

The Gospel of Thomas. I like the Gospel of Thomas a lot. Any other fans here? It is so much cleaner than the canonical gospels. No miracles, no biography, pure wisdom.

I see many things that I want to interpret with my current understanding. What's your reaction?

"but I have said that who among you will become a little child will know the kingdom" -> inner child work

"If you do not know yourselves, then you will be in deprivation and you will be deprivation itself." -> a pointer to shadow work

"Jesus said, You see the speck in your brother’s eye but not the beam in your own eye. When you take the beam out of your own eye, then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye." -> you know when you project and don't realize? and you try to help another and you can't, because you yourself are not healed? (it happened to me)

"Those who do not hate their father and mother cannot be my disciples, and those who do not hate their brothers and sisters and bear the cross as I do will not be worthy of me" -> find the anger!

"Lucky the man who has suffered and found life." -> It's good to do grief work, and release.

"Seek and you will find." -> the intention counts, everything else will follow

"Jesus said: Whoever drinks from my mouth will become like me. I myself shall become that person, and the hidden things will be revealed to that one." -> if you do circling with me your shadow will be revealed ;-)
