Agape

Unconditional love. A love that stems from the ability of the initiate to see the divine spark in all life, which in turn points to a single source. This is not to say that we ARE the source, but that pieces of it are within us which is why we are led back to it.


Refers to love. For some Gnostics it refers to the ability of the initiate to see the divine spark in all life, in the process of becoming Pneumatic. "Love, Faith, Hope, and Knowledge", are elements of a "tetrad", explained in the "Gospel of Philip".
