I was just curious if any other Christian oriented Pagans here encoporate Gnosticism into their path and worship Sophia as their Goddess?

No, even though I have studies some Gnosticism...my chosen goddesses are Mary and Mary Magdalen. Not that I don't believe in Sophia as a goddess...just not my goddess. But then again I lean more Catholic then Gnostic...as far as deities.

I do not work with Sofia or Wisdom as Godde's wife. I see Godde as Wisdom and all in one. I think my Catechism teacher put it best. Godde is revealed to us as Mother and Father through our having a relationship with It. The written revelations to Christians show that Godde wishes to be known as Father, but that does not limit It. Only humans limit Godde. To me Mary and Mary the Magdala are not wives of the infinite Mystery. That is just my opinion though :D

Well, rethinking what I said I probably do honor Sophia, as the Holy Spirit. Since Byzantines believe that Holy Spirit has female energy and gave it the me Sophia...that is why we have a church in the Middle east named after Wisdom. I no longer vey Magdalen as a deity but as one close enough to Christ, maybe even Christs wife...which makes her a goddess in her own right (in my eyes).

I've been doing some reading on Sophia as well as Mary Magdalen. I find both quite interesting tho as of yet I wouldn't say I "worship" them. I guess I'm still learning and figuring out what I believe....

Ummm I read the Gnostic books andthey are very interesting,but I do not worship Sophia.

What do you guys think of Norea? Is she the true savior of the flood? Rather than Noah?

I honor and worship Sophia as a Goddess and a consort to Yahweh, but I can't say I do so in a Gnostic sort of a way. I'm still trying to "feel out" Gnostic Christianity, though I'm looking more at other stuff right now so that research is kind of on the back burner.
