In closing, I ask, is it really Gary Renard's stolen Gospel? The
answer is no, not at all. Bruce and Robert, the book is called, Your Immortal Reality, chapter 7 is called, Pursah's Gospel of Thomas, and unlike your work, people will still be reading it two thousand years
from now.

Prophecy?

Well Gary has claimed a whole lot of things about multiple centuries in the future and even more things about what happened in his living room with alleged "ascended masters." They all have one thing in common. No evidence. Oh they have another thing

in common, they can all be proven to be false.

Pursah doesn't exist. He (or is that the she?) is a fictional character in Gary's noteworthy and very entertaining FICTIONAL novel. The "Gospel of Thomas" falsely attributed to the fictional character Pursah is a 2nd century document which has been

translated and published variously by numerous scholars. Pursah offers nothing other than plagiarism but then again can a non-existent fictional character "offer" anything but a tall tale?

Well I'd say that a fictional character can offer a lot and a lot of truth if that character opens our minds to entertain the TRUTH that only forgiveness actually heals any grievance. Insofar as Gary's fiction has served that end, and it has to some

extent, then Gary's fiction is doing God's work.

In that view "it's all true except for the facts." And that is the case with much of the best fiction. The STORY is true even if the facts are not.

Where we need to be careful with pathological liars like Gary Renard and Donald Trump is making the distinction between the "facts" which aren't true and the underlying stories which might very well communicate deeper truths.

So the Gospel of Thomas which almost certainly contains quotes from Jesus of Nazareth from the first century CE presents "truth" and the truth of those words is not impaired regardless of what lies Gary tells about how he came to put those words to

paper.

But the truth of those words doesn't spill over to make Gary's lies true!
