One of the heresiarchs of a certain sect -whose name has escaped my memory- actually assumed “Periqleitos” as his name, pretending to be “the most praiseworthy” Prophet foretold by Jesus (pbuh) , and had many followers. If there were an authentic Gospel authorized by Jesus Christ (pbuh) or by all the Apostles, there could be no such numerous sects, all opposed to the contents of the books contained in or outside the existing New Testament. We can safely infer from the action of the pseudo-Periqlyte that the early Christians considered the promised “Spirit of Truth” to be a person and the final Prophet of God.3.

In his discourses and orations, Jesus (pbuh) speaks of the pre-existence of his own spirit(john viii. 58 xvii. 5, etc.). In the Gospel
