Any "gospels" that are not in the Bible are irrelevant. Even if they were, should they suggest Jesus was not God in the flesh, the evidence in the Bible, including eyewitness accounts of Jesus resurrection, and non-Biblical sources easily refute the claim Jesus was not divine.

The reason the Coptic Gospel of Thomas did not "give Jesus the divinity the church wanted to convey" is because
it is not a narrative account of the life of Jesus; instead, it consists of logia (sayings) attributed to Jesus, sometimes stand-alone, sometimes embedded in short dialogues or parables; 13 of its 16 parables are also found in the Synoptic Gospels. The text contains a possible allusion to the death of Jesus in logion 65 (Parable of the Wicked Tenants, paralleled in the Synoptic Gospels), but does not mention his crucifixion, his resurrection, or the final judgement; nor does it mention a messianic understanding of Jesus.

The Gospel of Thomas is an extra-canonical sayings gospel. It was discovered near Nag Hammadi, Egypt, in December 1945 among a group of books known as the Nag Hammadi library. Scholars speculate that the works were buried in response to a letter from Bishop Athanasius declaring a strict canon of Christian scripture. Scholars have proposed dates of composition as early as 60 AD and as late as 250 AD. Since its discovery, many scholars have seen it as evidence in support of the existence of a "Q source" which might have been very similar in its form as a collection of sayings of Jesus without any accounts of his deeds or his life and death, referred to as a sayings gospel.


The Gospel of Mary is a non-canonical text discovered in 1896 in a fifth-century papyrus codex written in Sahidic Coptic. This Berlin Codex was purchased in Cairo by German diplomat Carl Reinhardt. Although the work is popularly known as the Gospel of Mary, it is not classed as a gospel by some scholars, who restrict the term 'gospel' to texts "primarily focused on recounting the teachings and/or activities of Jesus during his adult life".


The Gospel of James is a second-century infancy gospel telling of the miraculous conception of the Virgin Mary, her upbringing and marriage to Joseph, the journey of the couple to Bethlehem, the birth of Jesus, and events immediately following. It is the earliest surviving assertion of the perpetual virginity of Mary, meaning her virginity not just prior to the birth of Jesus, but during and afterwards, and despite being condemned by Pope Innocent I in 405 and rejected by the Gelasian Decree around 500, became a widely influential source for Mariology.

One of the most beautiful models in history. Learn history. Did you see the Renaissance? They focused on the real beauty of women.
The paintings of Michelangelo, Raphael, and Leonardo Da Vinci. It they are alive today; Melania will be their 1st model.

Melania will go down in history as the most beautiful trophy wife ever.
Too bad Trump also sought out a porn star.

Can't say the same about your non trophy wife. Can you? Don't feel bad, a lot of men like you had to settle, nothing to be ashamed of. You're just not good enough for a trophy wife.

Do you realize you yearn to be humiliated?

Wrong. Melania was a model in Europe. She is presently the most beautiful woman and most classic. She is elegant, classy, and regal compared to a Queen.

Do you prefer them at the White House?

UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, please show me the politician who is not " only interested in his goals. " Surely your boy Brandon falls into that category !!!!!!!!!!!!

YOU and your compadres are the ones who made up this mythical " hold him up as God sent to achieve their goals. " That is a straw man you good folks on the Left have Frankenstein-like invented so that you can assassinate him, and convince the naive in your ranks that my boy Donald J. is this Hitler like bogey-man who must be defeated at all costs.

I definitely see my boy Donald J. Trump as the lesser of two evils. I am amazed at the fantasies you good folks who are Left, can concoct to fool the stupid people in America. I've explained this story more than once. I see this magnificent nation we live in as a ginormous ocean going ship. Like the biggest cruise liner or nuclear aircraft carrier.

It cannot be stopped on a dime. It needs a sk**led captain to keep it from running aground or hitting an iceberg. Your boy Brandon is like kindly Captain Smith of the Titanic. From all accounts he was a nice guy, but his ship sunk. Then you got my boy Donald J. Trump whom a lot of folks can't stand. Rather like Captain Bligh from Mutiny on the Bounty. Captain Bligh's men h**ed his guts, but he was a great sailing captain.

He tried to take the Bounty around South America's Cape Horn, but was stopped by bad weather. He then took his ship around the bottom of Africa to get to Tahiti. That was the mark of a competent captain. Later on after the mutiny, Bligh was able to navigate a small open boat 3,500 miles to a Dutch controlled settlement C**pang, and safety.

I would much rather sail with Captain Bligh, than Captain Smith, and I would much rather sail with Donald J. Trump as my President than your boy Joe Biden.
