Gospel of Philip continued.
The saints are served by evil powers, for they are blinded by the Holy Spirit into thinking that they are serving an (ordinary) man whenever they do so for the saints
***Amen!! Are these evil powers the Bishops? ******************
Those who have gone astray, whom the spirit begets, usually go astray also because of the Spirit.
*****Amen!! The Spirit, our LORD, causes people to go astray******************
Indeed, every act of sexual intercourse which has occurred between those unlike one another is adultery.
*****Amen!! Mixed Race marriage is adultery to you tribe**************
God is a man-eater. For this reason, men are sacrificed to him.
*****Amen to human sacrifice. Fortunately women are spared********
for Jesus came to crucify the world.
****Amen for irony************
And the companion of the [...] Mary Magdalene. [...] loved her more than all the disciples, and used to kiss her often on her mouth. The rest of the disciples [...]. They said to him "Why do you love her more than all of us?" The Savior answered and said to them,"Why do I not love you like her?
*****Amen to Jesus snogging Mary Magadalene***********
A bridal chamber is not for the animals, nor is it for the slaves, nor for defiled women; but it is for free men and virgins.
******No comment on this bigotry*************
The world came about through a mistake. For he who created it wanted to create it imperishable and immortal. He fell short of attaining his desire. For the world never was imperishable, nor, for that matter, was he who made the world.
****Oh LORD, your children were an accident, where thou drinking?!??***********
The priest is completely holy, down to his very body. For if he has taken the bread, he will consecrate it. Or the cup or anything else that he gets, he will consecrate. Then how will he not consecrate the body also?
****Tell that to the choir boy**************
The human being has intercourse with the human being. The horse has intercourse with the horse, the ass with the ass. Members of a race usually have associated with those of like race.
********Amen to racism and sectarianism*********
To the slaves he will give only the elementary lessons, to the children he will give the complete instruction.
*
No one can know when the husband and the wife have intercourse with one another, except the two of them. Indeed, marriage in the world is a mystery for those who have taken a wife. If there is a hidden quality to the marriage of defilement, how much more is the undefiled marriage a true mystery! It is not fleshly, but pure. It belongs not to desire, but to the will. It belongs not to the darkness or the night, but to the day and the light. If a marriage is open to the public, it has become prostitution, and the bride plays the harlot not only when she is impregnated by another man, but even if she slips out of her bedroom and is seen. Let her show herself only to her father and her mother, and to the friend of the bridegroom and the sons of the bridegroom. These are permitted to enter every day into the bridal chamber. But let the others yearn just to listen to her voice and to enjoy her ointment, and let them feed from the crumbs that fall from the table, like the dogs. Bridegrooms and brides belong to the bridal chamber. No one shall be able to see the bridegroom with the bride unless he become such a one.
*****Amen for sexism. lock the women in the bedroom lest they be seen in public and are therefore prostitutes and harlots!!!***********
When Abraham [...] that he was to see what he was to see, he circumcised the flesh of the foreskin, teaching us that it is proper to destroy the flesh.
*****Amen to Christian circumcision**************
as long as the intestines of the man are hidden, the man is alive; when his intestines are exposed and come out of him, the man will die.
****(Just wondering how they figured this one out)*****
The Gospel according to Philip.
