Gnosticism is a twisted form of Christianity that sprung out of the Church in the second century.

The hidden knowledge that Gnostics claim to have is simply the truth of Scripture inverted.
For example, Gnosticism teaches that the serpent in the Garden of Eden was trying to help Adam
and Eve escape the clutches of their oppressive Creator. We know, however, that God created
humanity in love, and that Satan has been trying to distort humanity's view of that love ever
since. When we compare the serpent's words in Genesis 3 with the major religions of today, we
can see that Satan has been hard at work trying to stifle God's truth with the very same lies he
has been using for 6000 years.
Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made.
And he said to the woman, Has God indeed said, You shall not eat of every tree of the
garden? And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden;
but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, You shall not eat it,
nor shall you touch it, lest you die. Then the serpent said to the woman, You will not surely
die. For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like
God, knowing good and evil (Genesis 3:1-5 NKJV).
As we can see, Satan's first interaction with humanity opened doors to the false religions
deceiving humanity today:

The Story
The Gnostic story of Creation is twisted from even before Adam and Eve. According to this
doctrine, there is an unknowable being called the "True Father." He created a being called
Sophia, but because Sophia was forbidden to know the True Father, she became angry and
created a monstrous god named Yaldaboath or Yahweh (the most sacred Hebrew name for God).
Yaldaboath was cast out of the cosmos and forced to live in the created universe. The Bible tells
us, however, that it was Satan who was cast out of heavennot God.
Gnostic doctrine says that Sophia used the serpent in the Garden of Eden to share with humanity
the secret knowledge that they are, in fact, divine.
New Age Alice Bailey makes this Gnostic declaration:
...it has been thought that the sheep went to heaven and the goats went to hell. It is the other way
around. The goat in Capricorn is the initiate and from a certain esoteric angle the goats do go to
heaven because they function in the spiritual Kingdom...the sheep remain on earth...until they
become goats.i
Many of the rich and famous think they are God, and are worshiped as gods. Rapper Jay-Z calls
himself Jay-HOVA in his song Izzo. But even beyond the Messiah complex common in the
media, other Gnostic themes are widespread in Hollywood, and we must be aware of the lessons
we are being taught.
