New Testament era Christianity and revered Christian books were quite different from Christian beliefs today and the New Testament canon of scripture we have today.

For example, the Gospel of Thomas has authentic words of Jesus, not found in the New Testament.  The Gospel of Philip implies Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene.  The Gospel of John (not the one in our Bibles today) talks about a Mother in Heaven (Heavenly Mother or Goddess married to Elohim). 

Books were taken out of the Christian canon of scripture, including the Shepherd of Hermas, the Epistle of Barnabas, the Didache, Sirach, 1 & 2 Maccabees, Tobit and others.
