The Gospel of Thomas

Oh, don't we all want to know how to enter the kngodom of heaven. The believe and faith that we all have can vary in different ways. We all like to the sky in hopes that there is a better life when you leave this world. "Recognize what is in your sight, and what is hidden will become clear to you"(29). A quote that may seem a little wonderous when you first read it. I got out of it that we must all realize the reality around us and believe and have faith and the things hidden will come within. We all try and figure out the different ways that will be able to go to heaven. Trying to find answers, but in reality there isn't answers, you do good, avoid evil, and know that god is all around you, you will go. A lot of these short quotes in the writing in a way I had to read them a few times to fully appreciate them.

I basically got of it that all the searching and questioning will get you know where. That we must find our answers from within and know that Jesus is ALL. He is there when we are eating, there at our weddings, basketball games, dinner tables, and funeral. The list would be non stop. Believing and knowing will make you fully comprehend that you will not grasp jesus with your sight but with your heart. I really do like the gospels and thought they were very intelligently written. I know not everyone believes in god, or jesus or whatever religion there is. That's what makes it so special, practically every religion we will experience will say it comes from within. The power of our brain is so powerful, that in a way we all under appreciate how much power we have. If you want Jesus to be there, he will, if you don't he won't. We all have our own chooses and beliefs and one isn't right over the other.

You know growing up I always thought that it was crazy there is so many different religions. In a way it kind of scared me away from religion, because i thought there is no way there could be that many religions. But the more I grow up and learn about religion the more i realize without religion we are nothing. We all have our choices and decisions in life. USE OUR BRAINS, Believe in what you want, but know the spirit is always around us. One of my favorite quotes to pretty much sum up kind of what I was trying to say, "If you bring forth what is inside you, what you bring forth will save you. If you don't bring forth what is inside you, what you don't bring forth will destroy you"(29).
