How could these #religions be considered #Christian if they didn't think #Jesus' death mattered? How could they consider the #God of the #OldTestament to be a lower level and inferior #divinity, and this #materialuniverse to be a #cosmic disaster? Did #Gnostics have their own #Scriptures? Did they use the books that later became the #NewTestament? If so, why didn't they just admit their views were wrong?
