Their has been increasing interest about the non canonnical Gospels in recent times but while these may be interesting they are literaly doctorinaly corupt and contradictory. Yes one may read them but be careful. Their ae two bibles that Christians use depending on one's theological conviction which are the 66 book cannon with the New and Old Testement and the Apocryphal version mainly used by Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholics, some Anglicans, and a few oher groups. From wikipedia: "most often those over which there is still-current disagreement about biblical canonicity. The pre-Christian-era Jewish translation (into Greek) of holy scriptures known as the Septuagint included these writings. However, the Jewish canon was not finalized until at least 100-200 years into the Christian era, at which time considerations of Greek language and beginnings of Christian acceptance of the Septuagint weighed against some of the texts. Some were not
accepted as part of the Hebrew Bible canon... Those canons were not challenged until the Protestant
Reformation (16th century), when both the Roman Catholic and  Eastern Orthodox Churches reaffirmed them. The reformers rejected the parts of the canon that were not part of the Hebrew Bible and established a revised Protestant  cannon." However their is no quesion that the Gnostics arent borderline cannocical and this become very apparent because they often contradict the three Synoptic Gospels and the Gospel According to John. Some of these books are the Gospel of James, the Gospel of Phillip, the Gospel of Marry, the Gospel of Thoms (probley the most famous). These ones are herretical and talk about secret knowledge (dangerous stuff to ones spiritual health). In fact in one of them it talks about Jesus as a kid---when he get angry he kills people and brings them back to life. So while interesting they are best to be avoided and if you are reading them pray before and just remember these are not part of the Cannnon because they are not Gods divinely inspired Word and that is why they are no in the cannon.

I was raised a Baptist and have since left that denomination not because they are not good Christian people or following the Lord, but I was called by the Holy Spririt to be an Anglican (Im going to be confirmed in September). However recently I noticed after a retreat I noticed that I was Idolizing the denomination which you should never do, all Glory to God and Christ Jesus (also the Holy Spirit). I noticed I was upset also over what happened to the Episcopal Church  and couldnt let it go. We live in a society where their is no belief in absolute truth, only relative truth. But this doesnt even make sence. We are told truth is relative and that is garbage, truth is truth.  If I say the sun is square shaped, it is not going to make the sun square. Jesus Christ is the truth, he is the only truth, and man's (and woman's) only hope for salvation. " While the Episcopal Church (TEC) remains static in church growth with declining membership in nearly all dioceses with some notable exceptions like the Diocese
of Albany and what was formerly the Diocese of South Carolina, its numbers are
on an overall downward trajectory due to smaller, aging congregations, declining
income, the push for pansexual acceptance, and a failed effort to double the
church by 2020" (virtueonline.org , David W. Virtue ). Another quote with some implications "Canon Phil Ashey of the American Anglican Council has done significant research
on the future of The Episcopal Church. Any way you cut it, it doesn't look good.
He paints a grim future for TEC. He recently wrote, "A lot of dioceses will wait
until it is too late and eat up their endowments before they merge: Delaware,
Easton, and Maryland; Long Island and New York; Connecticut and Rhode Island.
One could easily make the case that all the dioceses in upstate New York
(Western New York, Rochester, Central New York, and Albany) ought to merge. The
Episcopal landscape is going to look a lot different in the coming years. But,
based on my estimates (taking into account the average age of Episcopalians, no
conversion growth, low birthrate, and poor retention of young people), things
start imploding at an alarming rate after about 2018--and that's only six years
from now." (virtueonline.org , David W. Virtue ). While God's mercy is for all time, his patience is not. I think the Lord our God has run out of patience with the denominational Idolitry that splits his people and is using the religion of secularism to bring the name brand protestant denominations as he did Aysria to stop our Idolitry and bring us back to Christ and to work together evangelical non denominational, methodist, presbyterian, calvanist, lutheran, and more back to the heart of worship and truth in Christ. The way I like to is Im a Christian #1, an Anglican second and am willing and more than willing to work with Christians of any creed for the advancment of the Kingdom of God. Their is hope through God and the more Orthodox ACNA is growing, God Bless.
