Simon Magus

Author: G.R.S. Mead

Simon Magus was originally a Christian and disciple of John the Baptist, but broke off and formed the first Christian heresy, called Simonianism.

After learning magical medicine in Alexandria he was considered to have many magical skills. To this day, a skilled magician is called a “magus.” He also studied Greek philosophers, especially Heraclitus, and was the first Christian to attempt to bridge Greek philosophy and Christianity. If a bridge ever occurred, Church leaders feared they would weaken over time and not survive.

According to Mead, this was Simon’s great heresy – not his magic. This book shows Magus to have been a brilliant man who was breaking new ground, philosophically and spiritually.
