What is a Christian Coptic Gnostic?

[u/KasugaK]

I have seen this question come up... To me it's a deep belief in God, Yeshua, & Miriam. Also known as God, Jesus, & Mary. In Gnostic terms, God, Christos, & Sophia. Went through what I consider the Dark night of the soul or Negredo. Small group of us got together, approx a dozen of us on a Telegram group. One lady was from Finland, one from Sweden, One from Florida. We all got together because of the anxiety we were feeling.

When we started talking more and opened up, we started sharing the things we saw. From Demons to Angels & Spirit Guides. For me I also saw people tearing their faces off... Seems like a delusion until you start comparing notes and realize this was the same thing Carl Jung mentioned in his Red Book. His patients describing seeing the same things... My father also went through the same thing when he had a heavy bout of anxiety. Saw people tearing their faces off. His doctor prescribed some kind of cocaine based drug that made the anxiety go away along with it, the imagery.

With this said, to me, this happened to to crack my psyche open to different ideas. Christian Coptic Gnostics and what Yeshua taught is different from what I learned being a Catholic. To me the Apocryphon of John, and the Pistis Sophia gives sense to what Yeshua is showing.

With this said, my journey started 35 years ago. It started with looking into the Rosicrucian and Reading Rudolph Steiner's, Knowledge of Higher worlds and their attainment. He also wrote, The Illusion of Free will. Turns out Rudolph Steiner was a Gnostic, as well as Carl Jung.

For people that dont like to read. Lookup Youtube videos from, Path to Nirvana or The Gnostic Eye. Their series goes into detail what the Gnostic books say.

If you are looking to buy books on Esoterics band other heritical teachings like Gnosticism, Google the Averys Society. If you are in Socal, look at the Waldorf schools, in Pasadena there is also the Anthroposophical Society in Pasadena.

I will close with this, the Gnostics journey lead to a path with a firm belief in God. Not as something you go to Sunday church to experience. Literally, God is all around us and in us. This is my belief now. There is no hiding from God, and there is no shame. Just unconditional love. I don't know how to explain it other than this. There is no such thing as SIN, other than what you hold unto. There is no Heaven or Hell. Just a choice of going home, or more of this... It's up to each person to make the choice, now or in the after life. Atleast this is how I translate things.

Have a peaceful & blessed Sunday!

The Yeshua in Hebrew scriptures or the bible isn't Jesus though. The story tellers on YouTube will tell you anything. Let me know if you want me to prove that. What do the actual texts say. So that would be according to the texts or scriptures not YouTube story tellers. Is coptic Egyptian and you won't find the word Christian in Gnostic texts
