Gospel of Thomas - Chapter 112
From Sensus Plenior
Saying 111
- (111) Jesus said, "The heavens and the earth will be rolled up in your presence. And the one who lives from the living one will not see death." Does not Jesus say, "Whoever finds himself is superior to the world?"
Compare:
- Joh 11:26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
- Ro 8:13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
When you "find yourself" (your eyes are opened) you put off the flesh by resisting the temptations of the flesh and are better than the flesh.
