CHAPTER 23.
Jesus answered, however, and said to Philip and all
the disciples together : "I have turned their paths for the
salvation of all souls. Truly, truly, I say to you : unless I had
turned their paths a multitude of souls would have been
destroyed. And they would have spent a long period if the
archons of the aeons and the archons of the Heimarmene
and the sphere and all their places and all their heavens and
all their aeons were not dissolved. And the souls would have
spent a great (period of) time outside. And there would
have been delay in the completion of the number of perfect
souls, which will be accounted among the inheritance of the
height, through the mysteries, and will be in the Treasury
of Light. Because of this, I have turned their paths so that
they are confused and agitated, and give up the power which
is in the matter of their world, which they make into souls,
so that those that will be saved with all the power are
purified quickly and ascend, and those who will not be
saved are quickly dissolved".
