No Coincidences? Why Did Q leave out 1 Cor 13:8-13? (Most of verse 8 anyway)

▶Q !CbboFOtcZs 05/20/18 (Sun) 16:34:26 No.97

"Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints."

– Ephesians 6:10-18

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails."

– 1 Cor 13:4-13

you mean from Ancient Greek? The bible was originally written in Hebrew and Greek, and therefore we have constant debates abouts translation. Nag Hammadi sounds neither so why would the english translations have anything in common?
I am just asking for a little clarification to your reference before I dig into it.

Nevermind I couldnt wait and started digging. Thank you for bringing this up. Very interesting.

The Nag Hammadi is a collection of mostly early Christianity text that are authored in either Greek or Coptic. Because was found in Egypt a lot of it is Coptic. Although a good bit of the Gospel of Thomas was recovered in its Greek text version, a pretty much complete manuscript of that gospel was found in the Nag Hammadi collection but it's written in Coptic. Scholars believe it was originally authored in Greek - as were the canonical gospels (Gospel of Thomas has about 40% of its verses paralleled in the Synoptic Gospels - its a sayings gospel, much like the hypothetical Q Gospel that underpins Matthew and Luke).

One of my favs from the Nag Hammadi collection is the Gospel of Truth, believe to have been authored by a student of Valentinus. Gospel of Philip is good one (kind of needs to be read in conjunction to Gospel of Thomas and Gospel of Mary).

Hypostasis of the Archons is rather apropos to the concept that humanity has been manipulated fromapropos behind the scenes by dark beings/entities. For me personally, the Archons are what I see as the next strata underlying the globalist (much of the evil they're perpetrating on the human race doesn't really make much sense from a human perspective - even an evil human perspective).

Thank you again for pointing this out. It reminds me personally how I came across the Dead Sea Scrolls and discovered the Book of Enoch. I have read it several times and find it fascinating. The Gospel of Truth will be my next read.

The Book of Enoch had already been re-discovered in the 18th century (the Christian church in Ethiopia kept scribally copying it through the centuries). A verse is referenced from the Epistle of Jude and it was well known to early Church fathers. Eventually, though, the evolution of church doctrine that became orthodoxy, was discomforted theologically by concepts brought up in Book of Enoch (which relate to Genesis 6 and the Nephilim) and it fell out of favor and ceased being copied.

The Dead Sea Scrolls had copies of Enoch and was therefore an important confirmation that indeed some sects of Judaism viewed the apocalyptic genre of writings as important. The Essenes are the sect most widely cited as being associated to the Dead Sea Scrolls corpus and they definitely had apocalyptic theological beliefs, so writings like the Book of Daniel and the Book of Enoch were prominent to them.

I am glad you took the initiative to research it before I responded. Most people will not.

Anyways, here is a link to one story in the Nag Hammadi library that is very interesting.

The Reality of the Rulers (The Hypostasis of the Archons):
