jan 1, 145 - Epistula Apostolorum
Description:
The Epistula Apostolorum attempts to subvert the genre of gnostic literature itself, pushing back explicitly against gnostic/docetic beliefs and leaders (Simon Magus and a Cerinthus), using a mixture of canonical and non-canonical sources. The work implies that the Christian laity may have still been tolerant of theological diversity within its midst.
