Jesus said:

Blessed are the single ones and the elect,

for you will find the kingdom.

For you are from it,

and you will enter into it again.

Jesus said to them:

When you make the two one,

and make the inside like the outside,

and the outside like the inside,

and the upper side like the under side,

and in such a way that you make the man

with the woman a single one,

in order that the man is not man and the

woman is not woman; . . .

then you will go into the kingdom.

Jesus said:

He who will drink from my mouth

will become like me.

I too will become he

and the secrets will be revealed to him.

Jesus said:

Perhaps men think that I came

to cast peace on the world;

and they do not know that I came

to cast divisions upon the earth,

fire, sword, war.

For five will be in a house;

there will be three against two and two against

three,

the father against the son and the son against the

father.

And they will stand because they are single ones.

Jesus said:

The foxes have their holes and the birds have

their nest;

but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head

and to rest.

Jesus said:

I am the light

which is over everything.

I am the All;

from me the All has gone forth,

and to me the All has returned.

Split wood: I am there.

Lift up the stone, and you will find me there.

Jesus said:

When you make the two one,

you will become sons of man;

and if you say, Mountain, be removed!

it will move.

The disciples said to Jesus:

Tell us in what way our end will take place.

Jesus said:

You have indeed uncovered the beginning

so that you may seek the end;

for in the place where the beginning is,

there the end will be.

Blessed is he who will stand in the beginning

and will know the end and will not taste death.

Jesus said:

Let him who seeks not cease in his seeking until

he finds;

and when he finds, he will be troubled,

and if he is troubled, he will marvel,

and will be a king over the All.

Jesus said:

The kingdom of the Father

is like a merchant who had a cargo,

and who found a pearl.

He was a wise man.

He sold his cargo

and bought for himself the pearl alone.

You too seek for his treasure which does not

perish,

which abides where no moth enters to eat

and worms do not destroy.

Jesus said:

If you do not fast to the world,

you will not find the kingdom;

if you do not truly keep the Sabbath,

you will not see the Father.

And he said:

Man is like a wise fisherman, who cast his net

in the sea

and drew it out of the sea when it was full of

little fishes.

Among them the wise fisherman found a large

good fish.

He cast all the little fishes down into the sea.

He selected the large fish without difficulty.

He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

Jesus said:

Many stand before the door,

but the single ones are those who will enter into

the bridechamber.

The disciples said to Jesus:

Tell us what the kingdom of heaven is like.

He said to them:

It is like a grain of mustard, smaller than all the

seeds.

But when it falls on earth which is tilled,

it sends forth a great branch and becomes a

covering

for the birds of heaven.

Jesus said:

Blessed is he who was before he became.

If you are my disciples and hear my words,

these stones will serve you.

For you have five trees in paradise;

they do not stir, summer or winter,

and their leaves do not fall off.

He who will understand them will not taste death.

Jesus said:

He who has known the world has found a corpse,

and he who has found a corpse,

of him the world is not worthy.

His disciples said:

Show us the place where you are,

for it is necessary for us to seek it.

He said to them:

He who has ears, let him hear!

There is light within an enlightened man

and it illuminates the whole world;

if it does not illuminate it, it is darkness.
