Note that the Gospel of Thomas contains some unique history of Jesus.
Those are not reliable or accepted teachings of Christ, the go against the Bible we now have.

The Gospel of Thomas has been deemed to be somewhat historically reliable. There was not one version of early Christianity, but many different ones. Your version comes on the scene very late, being descended from the Anabaptists of the 16th-century, whom Martin Luther even persecuted.
In all, there are at least 44 different "Gospels" that were written prior to the 2nd century. The Gospel of Peter, for instance, was supported in some of the early Churches and contains sayings of Jesus that are found in the Bible Gospels.
