Papist heretic detected. Unlike the divergent traditions spawned by the West (aka. the whore of Babylon), we the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church recognize the validity and divine inspiration of all the 81 books from the Bible.

What about the nag hammadi ones "heretic"?

>>23236312
The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church acknowledges the existence of the Nag Hammadi texts but maintains that they do not align with the core teachings and traditions preserved within our faith.
Some Nag Hammadi texts present alternative understandings of the nature of God that diverge from the orthodox Trinitarian doctrine upheld by the Ethiopian Church. For instance, certain texts espouse views of deity that are pantheistic or dualistic in nature, which contrasts with the monotheistic conception of God as the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Regarding Christology found in some Nag Hammadi texts is the Gospel of Thomas. In this text, Jesus is portrayed primarily as a teacher of wisdom, emphasizing his teachings rather than his salvific role as the divine Son of God. Unlike the canonical Gospels, which include narratives of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection, the Gospel of Thomas consists primarily of sayings attributed to Jesus, presenting a more esoteric interpretation of his teachings.
