Excuse me, but I have a question to do all you. I read in this interview these words of prof Price about a suggestive ''medieval heretic gospel'' but unfortunately without naming it.
...I think of how I once heard an adolescent girl in my church retell a story I had once recounted from a medieval heretic gospel in which God told the angels that whoever of them would endure the tribulations written in a heavenly book would become his Son. All the others fainted dead away, but Jesus accepted the challenge and embarked on the Incarnation, Crucifixion, etc. She didn’t remember where she had heard it, and I was delighted to realize I had made an ancient myth live again.
I tried to look something up on this without much luck.
The closest I could get was the Gospel of Barnabas, which is clearly medieval, but in that one Jesus is a prophet of God, and it condemns anyone who calls him "son of god."
If I am understanding Price's allusion correctly, in this medieval gospel Jesus is one of the angels of God and accepts a challenge to be the one to descend, be incarnated, endure the scourging humiliations and death on the cross (the tribulations), and be resurrected as son of god.
That sounds like some sort of story that centers on the the struggles between an angel Jesus, who accepts the challenge to be the savior of mankind, and Satan, who opposes Jesus and ends up the fallen angel.
This sounds like Ellen G. White's The Great Controversy (1858), which was pivotal in the development of the 7th Day Adventist movement, where Ellen was considered a prophet.

Can someone of this forum tell me more about this medieval source (if he knows about) ?
I'm very curious,
Very thanks
Do you mean this ?

If so it comes from a Cathar Sermon (as retold to an inquisitor) We had a long discussion about it in this thread viewtopic.php?f=3&t=750&start=60

Ah haa! I knew I had heard that claim before.
Was that extended thread initiated by one of Dr. Price's video lectures?
