Apocryphon of John (II, 1) 7.15-30

"... And the holy
Spirit completed the divine Autogenes,
his son, together with Barbelo,
that he may attend the mighty and invisible,
virginal Spirit as the divine
Autogenes, the Christ whom he had
honored with a mighty voice. He came forth
through the forethought. And the invisible,
virginal Spirit placed the
divine Autogenes of truth over everything.
And he subjected to him every authority,
and the truth which is in him,
that he may know the All which
had been called with a name exalted above
every name. For that name will be mentioned
to those who are worthy of it."
