The Gospel of Thomas threatens the status quo of conservative, literal Christianity -- the enemies of Gnosticism -- who have done everything they can to make the Gospel of Thomas disappear again, by declaring it Gnostic and therefore heretical.  There is no Gnostic theorising in Thomas -- it is more likely to have been written at the time of the canonical gospels and maybe even earlier.  Thomas, if anything, is anti-Gnostic, with its emphasis on the presence of the Kingdom of Heaven within the world now... Gnosticism emphatically insisted that the Kingdom of Heaven is to be found in the highest sphere above the world and certainly not here among the archons. ~ Stevan Davis
