Gnostic Baptists (Sobiai) refers to various sects of Baptizers who adopted Kabbalah (Jewish Theology) and devoted themselves to Bina. Gnostic Baptists were most common in Tang China, the Persian Empire and Mesopotamian Arabia which the Roman Church described as haeresium ferax, the “bearer” (or “mother”) of heresies. The phrase Arabi Mubeen itself refers to Devotees of Bina. The Islamic Quran seems to have been drawn from Gnostic Baptist materials written in the tongue of devotees to Gnosis. Gnostics are derogatorily called Apostates or Heathens or Heretics by other Christians being Hanifa or Hanpa (corrupt) in Semitic languages because of their adherence to Kabbalah (Jewish Theology).

The Koine Greek word "Gnosis" refers to the Jewish Theological concept of "Bina" as a kind of spiritual knowledge usually referred to as "Understanding" and is used by Gnostic Baptists to refer to the light which shines in creation from Bina. The concept entered Roman Christianity as "Sophia".

Gnostics view the World of Assia as a battle ground where the Kingdom of G-d is attempting to dethrone Lilith who was thought to rule as a sort of self-styled "god" of this world until the day of Har-Mageddon. Several different Gnostic Baptist sects emerged such as:

Elcessaites
Manichaeans
Mandaeans
Old Paulicans
Hanifians (certain desert-dwelling Devotees of Bina in Late Antiquity who under Maslama bin Habib embraced the term Hanifa as a name for Abraham to remind that even a man of such renowned righteousness as Abraham descended from such a corrupt Hanif as Serug. Thus no one should lose hope. They called themselves the Banu Hanifa meaning Children of Abraham.)

These sects regarded Jesus not as a human being but as an Angelic visitor from the world of Bina who decided it would be best to be born to enter this world rather than enter the world by other means. Such sects regarded Jesus as a spiritual trinity of Luminous Spirit, Crucified Word and Messianic Messenger who in combination only appeared to be human but in reality was not a human being.

Some of these sects such as the Elchassites respected Judaism and Jews as guides, but others such as the Mandaeans rejected them. The Mandaeans also rejected the Christian Jesus as a literary invention.

Gnostic Baptists can be distinguished from Christians by their use of the name Yahia insteat of Iuhana to refer to John the Baptist and the use of the word Ieso instead of Yeshua to refer to Jesus.
