I'm surprised you don't know this. In Gnostic belief systems, Jesus prayed to the Father (Monad) as the ultimate, ineffable source of all being, often referred to as the "God above God" or Bythos, distinct from the lesser creator deity known as the Demiurge (aka Yahweh in the OT). Gnostics viewed the Monad as a singular, formless essence without name, emotion, or form, from which all spiritual emanations (Aeons) flow, including the Christ spirit. That's what many of the early Christians believed as well.
I was curious to know what you know about it.
From my understanding, Jesus is the part of the Trinity as God's Form, and He has had other Forms before His Jesus Flesh. God's Form is inextricabley connected to His Holy Spirit and His Godhead. I've been given this knowledge from His word and Him teaching me by His Spirit.
The lesser (Samael) is so much less that he does not deserve the titles creator, deity, demiurge, or Yahweh. If gnostics are so monist you'd think they wouldn't deify some subaeonic upstart. The whole Sophia shtik is simply kicking theodicy down the road. Christ is about timeless emanation, not sequential emanation, which literally comes from Kek of the Egyptian ogdoad.
