A sample of something that was rejected? Do you know why it was rejected?

Goggling it I got this just now.

Being an apocryphal work, the Gospel of Thomas is not included in the Bible. Its non-canonical status comes down to several reasons, but the most important one is that it contains heretical teachings. The book originates from a circle of early Christians who were influenced by a heresy known as Gnosticism.

As indicated, not by the Catholics. Even the Pope has quoted from it.

Perhaps if you Googled rather than Goggled you might find a better site.

🙂 LOL, okay...if you find something different (better due to cause), let me know.

Bringing up the Catholic Pope doesn't move me towards anything; instead, it would cause me to lean away.

I raised the Gospel of Thomas as it is precisely 'on topic' revealing the early life of Jesus where he committed many sins. (Some of them quite shocking).

I just realized the window I used was Microsoft Bing, utterly different than google or goggle. 🙂

Well, and you think that lines up of with scripture that says Jesus never sinned?

You got your Jesus from a movie or book or someone talking about a movie or a book. If you want to pick your source, you like this one or that, so it is genuine enough to you; okay, you disagree with the Biblical Jesus.

The Jesus you believe in can do whatever you want him to; you are helping to make him up; he must be this and not that; there are a few different Jesus' preached on this site do not align with what the Bible says.

2 Corinthians

But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ. For if someone comes and proclaims another Jesus than the one we proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or if you accept a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it readily enough.

Pushing a different Jesus or gospel is nothing new; it is being done here now just as it was back then.

No, and this is important; why? You don't have to have sex to be tempted by it.
