Summary: Who were the Gnostics? Were they heretics or visionaries who possessed the keys to Christianity's deepest secrets? Where did they come from? Did they leave any descendants? Why were they suppressed? Why do their ideas keep reappearing? Forbidden Faith is a comprehensive popular history of Gnosticism, a secretive tradition that has survived for centuries in many forms under many names.
