We now present selections from “Pistis Sophia” on Divine protection from Lord Jesus Christ (vegetarian), and the blessings of grace and salvation. “And Jesus continued again in the discourse and said unto His disciples: ‘It came to pass then, when Pistis Sophia had finished saying these words in the chaos, that I made the Light-power, which I had sent to save her, become a light-wreath on her head, so that from now on the emanations of Self-willed could not have dominion over her. And when it had become a light-wreath round her head, all the evil matters in her were shaken and all were purified in her. They perished and remained in the chaos, while the emanations of Self-willed gazed upon them and rejoiced. And the purification of the pure light, which was in Pistis Sophia, gave power to the light of my Light-power, which had become a wreath round her head. It came to pass then moreover, when it surrounded the pure light in Sophia, and her pure light did not depart from the wreath of the power of the Light-flame, so that the emanations of Self-willed should not rob it from it, – when then this befell her, the pure light-power in Sophia began to sing praises. And she praised my Light-power, which was a wreath round her head, and she sang praises, saying: “The Light has become a wreath round my head; and I shall not depart from it, so that the emanations of Self-willed may not rob it from me. And though all the matters be shaken, yet shall I not be shaken. And though all my matters perish and remain in the chaos, – those which the emanations of Self-willed see, – yet shall I not perish. For the Light is with me, and I myself am with the Light.” These words then Pistis Sophia uttered. Now, therefore, let him who understands the thought of these words, come forward and proclaim their solution.’ Then Mary, the mother of Jesus, came forward and said: ‘My son according to the world, my God and Savior according to the height, bid me proclaim the solution of the words which Pistis Sophia has uttered.’ […]And Mary, the mother of Jesus, answered and said: ‘My Lord, Thy Light-power has prophesied aforetime concerning these words through Solomon in the nineteenth Ode and said: “The Lord is on my head as a wreath, and I shall not depart from Him. The wreath in truth is woven for me; and it has caused Thy twigs to sprout in me. For it is not like unto a wreath withered that sprouts not. But Thou are alive on my head and Thou have sprouted upon me. […]”’”
