The Alexandrian Gnostic Church
Those who say they will die first
and then rise are in error.
If they do not first receive the resurrection
while they live,
when they die they will receive nothing.
- The Gospel of Philip
Ave candidum Lilium fulgidi
semperque tranquilli Pleromatis,
Rosaque praefulgida coelicae amoenitatis,
de qua nasci et de cujus lacte pasci Jesus, Flos Aeonum,
voluit, divinis infusionibus animos nostros pasce.
Amen.
Hail, shining white Lily of the
gleaming and ever tranquil Pleroma,
and ever brilliant Rose of celestial bliss,
from whom is born and
from whose milk is nourished Jesus,
the Flower of the Aeons,
who willed that our souls be nourished
by the showers of Thy divinity.
Amen
- The Angelic Prayer
