Gospel of Thomas Verse 10-13

10)  Jesus said, “I have cast fire upon the world, and see, I am
guarding it until it blazes.”
 
11)  Jesus said, “This heaven will pass away, and the one above
it will pass away. The dead are not alive, and the living will
not die. In the days when you consumed what is dead, you made it
what is alive. When you come to dwell in the light, what will you
do? On the day when you were one you became two. But when you
become two, what will you do?”
 
12)  The disciples said to Jesus, “We know that You will depart
from us. Who is to be our leader?”
     Jesus said to them, “Wherever you are, you are to go to
James the righteous, for whose sake heaven and earth came into
being.”
 
13)  Jesus said to His disciples, “Compare me to someone and tell
Me whom I am like.”
     Simon Peter said to Him, “You are like a righteous angel.”
     Matthew said to Him, “You are like a wise philosopher.”
     Thomas said to Him, “Master, my mouth is wholly incapable of
saying whom You are like.”
     Jesus said, “I am not your master. Because you have drunk,
you have become intoxicated by the bubbling spring which I have
measured out.”
     And He took him and withdrew and told him three things. When
Thomas returned to his companions, they asked him, “What did
Jesus say to you?”
     Thomas said to them, “If I tell you one of the things which
he told me, you will pick up stones and throw them at me; a fire
will come out of the stones and burn you up.”
