Discover the secret quest of the Christian Gnostics, who have emerged in different forms throughout history, walking the hidden path towards spiritual transformation. Part 1 examines the question, "What is a Gnostic?". Starting with the early years of Christianity, this video explores the Gnostic origins of Jesus and his disciples and the secret aspects of his teachings. Discover how the theology of Paul of Tarsus diverged from the Gnostic teachings of Jesus and came to compete with the Church of Jerusalem, which was led by Jesus' disciples. With the fall of the Church of Jerusalem, Pauline Christianity became dominant. Those who knew and practiced the secret heart of Jesus' teachings went underground — hidden from view but continuing their quest for spiritual enlightenment. Find out more at www.gnosticmovement.com

I thought this video (documentary?) was insightful. I've heard LOTS about Christianity - who hasn't? - but never really knew much about the history. It looks like it was a difficult and bumpy road for the Gnostics all along the way. I'm glad, though, that this kind of knowledge has always survived somehow. Don't know where we would be without this chance!
This video is so well done and informative, and gives a great perspective on what Gnosis is all about!
It's really great to see it here, and gives me inspiration to search deeper into the hidden meaning of things.
This video provides a great explaination into Gnostic Christianity. I think there is something in it for both those new and old to these topics!
Really interesting video, there was much in this documentary I was unaware of. I definitely recommend this to someone who is interested in Gnosticism.
This is a great video. I haven't seen anything like it in regards to christian gnosticism before.
Hopefully this will inspire some people to look beyond the dogma.
Thankyou for posting this link! I've been interested in gnosticism for some time now, but I never really knew much (or barely anything apparently!) about its origins.
Thanks again, this one and the other two in the serios have really put things into perspective for me!
Lovely video, thank you for posting it :)
Hi Justin, this is the first video i watched here based on my interests, and i must say it was really revealing!
Thanks for yet another great video Justin! Very interesting to learn more about early Christianity.
Great documentary. I love these kind of things. When the gospel of Judas was found and put into a documentary by the geographic channel i loved it. I had the same thing with this video and also watched the other two parts. Thanks for putting them up Justin.
