Prologue

From "Clones and Ladders," by Illuminatis Maximus of The Gnostic Friends Network.

"When Sophia saw how the Rulers were behaving, she was upset, and revealed her image to the Chief Ruler in the waters. She came up with a plan, and tricked the Rulers into creating Adam, the first man. They based their design upon the reflection they had seen, but little did the Rulers know that their Adam would one day destroy them!

"When Adam had been built, the Rulers left him soulless and senseless. Sophia called for the help of Christ, her brother, and together they tricked Yaldabaoth into blowing his soul into the strange creature. Yaldabaoth was enraged, and threw Adam away.

"Since Adam was now paralyzed, Sophia sent her daughter Eve to revive him. She gave him her spirit, and Adam was at last complete. The Rulers were green with envy and knocked Adam unconscious, teaching him in his sleep that Eve had been created from his rib. They enclosed him in a second body, an armor of fear and forgetfulness designed to keep him ignorant. The Rulers chased after Eve and tried to rape her, but she escaped from them and hid inside the Tree of Knowledge.

"Eve left behind a shadowy decoy whom the Rulers raped repeatedly, thus spawning the human race. The Rulers didn't know that the real Eve, the mother of Life, was actually hidden inside of Adam. Sophia sent the 'Instructor,' a being also known as the 'serpent' or the 'beast' to help the deceived humans. They ate from the Tree of Knowledge and became enlightened, condemning the arrogant Chief Ruler. Enraged, he closed the gates of 'Paradise,' and cast the first humans down upon the Earth."

Dual Nature

By Zoharet Sophia

If the Creature could smile, it would have. Instead, a hideous sneer stretched across it's lion-like face, barely recognizable in the murky darkness. Another victory had been accomplished on this day. Mark David Chapman had proven a worthy pawn indeed, and the creature decided it would reward him with the madness he had feigned before the terrible deed. For the rest of his life, Chapman would really believe that he was really John Lennon, having shot the daemonic imposter that had tried to steal his dreams, his wife, his life. Whenever a Beatle-crazy prisoner attacked him, Chapman just prayed, knowing that some day the Lord Almighty would return, bringing fire to the unjust, cleansing the world of sinners. Little did the poor fool know that his Lord Almighty was a hideous creature, with a distorted lion-like face, and the body of a sea monster -- and that "His" master plan included slaying both just and unjust alike -- with the exception of "his" children: genetically perfect humans who were encoded with the DNA of his first creations, the Elohim. They, and only they would survive the coming holocast -- and, unlike his other "children", they would obey His true laws -- that of the Left Brain -- Science, Rationality and Logic.

The Creature had taught them the science of how to create life -- and they would use it to recreate the world again -- but without the random, disorderly forces of the Entirety interferring -- after all, these were His creations and His alone -- without the divine wisdom of Sophia to make them disobey Him, and cause trouble.

The Creature was quite pleased.

Anticipating the Creature's move, Sophia had sent another emissary for the next generation. She was a beautiful woman, but her self-doubts and insecurities often got the upper hand. During her darkest moments, she had considered suicide, but then the Light of Sophia would appear and give her the hope to go on. Despite a scandalous and disasterous marriage, the woman seemed even more closer to her destiny -- to be an Earthly Queen of Love, a Queen of Hearts if you would. Her kindness and self-sacrifice had inspired even the Angels living on Earth. It was no wonder that the entire world grieved her untimely death -- shrouded in darkness and deception. Sophia welcomed back her child, but she worried about the status of her youngest son, Michael. He was not faring well at all -- she knew it was time to send in the "big guns" and her brother agreed with her. So together they infused their magic into two more emissaries and sent them into the Earth plane. It was just in time since Michael was now 33 years old, and the world was about to end....
