Pre-Christian Gnostics by Francis Legge is a comprehensive study of the ancient Gnostic movement that existed before the advent of Christianity. The book delves into the origins of Gnosticism, its main beliefs, and its influence on various philosophical and religious traditions. Legge explores the different Gnostic schools of thought, including the Sethian, Valentinian, and Hermetic schools, and examines their unique perspectives on the nature of the divine, the universe, and the human soul. He also discusses the role of Gnosticism in the development of early Christianity, including the influence of Gnostic ideas on the Gospel of John and other New Testament writings. This book provides a fascinating insight into the pre-Christian world of Gnosticism and its impact on the religious and philosophical landscape of the ancient world.THIS 88 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Forerunners and Rivals of Christianity From 330 BC to 330 AD, by Francis Legge.
