Tittles of Christ in "The Gospel of Truth"

Abstract

This article contains analyse comparing tittles of Chris using by the authors of The Gospel of John and the gnostic Gospel of Truth. We studied in details main tittles: Logos-Word, Son, Name, God, Lord, King and Messiah, Good Shepherd. We concluded that person of Christ has been reintroduced into a gnostic text, which trays to adapt itself to Christian tradition. The gnostic text gives the main rule of the gnostic philosophy: necessity of repairing mistake made by Plane – fulfilling absence of Fullness. We also noticed main philosophical difference between showing God. As He is positive valued in Christianity, in gnostic religion He is bad creator of matter.
