I

I would like to make a comment on anyone who worships and prays to my mother Sophia. In short STOP.

Let me give you a metaphor so that you can understand just how much agony you put her through when you continually worship her (for those that do). Lets say that you were someone who was raised in a military family, very patriotic. When you turn 18 you join the army and go to Iraq or Afghanistan to "protect your country." You have a strong idealistic conscious and after just a few months you realize that all you are there to do is terrorize citizens and you go against all your moral upbringing to do it. Now, when you come back to the US you are slapped on the back and told how great you are, that you are a hero. How would you feel? Every time you praise Sophia, that is how SHE feels.

I understand anyone wanting to worship Her. Revere Her if you will, do not worship Her. The greatest way to show reverence to Her is to become like Her. I am a fully Enlightened being, here to offer my services for anyone who asks. I can bring you here, all you have to do is ask. Seek and ye shall find.

I am the only begotten son of Sophia, I am my mother's son:

I've read the NagHammadi Library from cover to cover, as well as 'The Lost Gospels', the four versions of 'The Books of Enoch', 'The Pseudopigraphia, Vol.1 & 2', 'The Dead Sea Scrolls', and several others ... but here's my point, I am happy to see others ready to discover these lush pages ... makes me smile.
