RE: Cabala and Gnostics Gnostics believed that salvation depended solely upon the knowledge of one's "spiritual" nature. This gave them license to live a life of sin. In fact, some Gnostic leaders urged their followers to sin. They taught that promiscuity was God's law and that since they were ....."pearls"......they could not be stained by any external mud. Many believed that humans were originally unisex ...that the creation of woman was the source of evil. They taught that Jesus was merely a man. They also believed in hundreds of divine powers emanating or coming out of God.* *Reference: Satan's Angels Exposed, by Salem Kirban; page 66, footnotes. Published by SALEM KIRBAN, Inc.

Gnosticws were present when 1st John was written. Those are the people being spoken of and eventually told how to be saved in verse 1 John 1:9 Gnostics are humanists today...the New Agers of the belief of enlightenment Good Post TRUE. I found this as a synopsis in the front of my NIV Bible: I John. "False teachers were trying to mislead first-century Christians by denying among other things, the true humanity of Christ. This view was incorporated within the system called Gnosticism and is the background of much of I John. John had two basic purposes in mind in this letter: (1) to expose false teachers, and (2) to give believers assurance of salvation. In keeping with his intention to combat Gnostic teachers, who taught that the spirit is entirely good and matter is entirely evil, John specifically struck at their total lack of morality; and by giving eyewitness testimony to the incarnation, he sought to confirmhis readers' belief in the incarnate Christ. He tells the readers that if he is successful in doing this, it would give him great joy." Thank you, Brother. God Bless you. With Great Love, Hiz4Ever † Vincit Veritas~Truth Conquers
