It sounds awful but that's what it sounds like. I know that me being here means that people are going to kill one another. I think it means, however much the religious choose not to agree, that Jesus was saying: I'm not here for peace for everyone. It is stated: "and they will be lifted up, being solitaries," meaning that there is an "ascending" as individuals. The message will in fact create strife until it is recognized by a sufficient number who then realize their true nature and place in the world and Reality.Īctive-mystic, you are reading your own opinions in this text. Jesus' revolutionary message of our true nature and relationship to God is only slowly being realized and spread. Indeed, if there are five in a house, they will become three against two and two against three - father against son and son against father - and they will be lifted up, being solitaries." But they do not know that I have come to bring the world discord, fire, sword, war. Jesus says: "Men indeed think I have come to bring peace to the world.
And they will stand at rest by being solitaries."ġ7. There will be three over two and two over three, parent over child and child over parent. And they do not recognize that it is divisions that I have come to impose upon the earth - fire, sword, battle. (16) Jesus said, "People probably think that it is peace that I have come to impose upon the world.
For there will be five who are in a house three shall be against two and two against three, the father against the son and the son against the father, and they shall stand as solitaries.
(16) Jesus said: Perhaps men think that I am come to cast peace upon the world and they do not know that I am come to cast dissensions upon the earth, fire, sword, war. This Gospel of Thomas Commentary is part of the Gospel of Thomas page at Early Christian Writings.
