Original Christianity
Author: Peter Novak
Publisher: Hampton Roads Publishing
ISBN: 1612832350
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
“Offers more information about the first-century world of early Christians, asking, ‘Could Christ’s original teachings have truly been lost?’” —Foreword Reviews “Whoever finds the interpretation of these sayings will not experience death.” —from the Gospel of Thomas The work of scholars such as Elaine Pagels and Marvin Meyer have captured the imagination of the public by setting forth the Gospel of Thomas and other lost teachings of Jesus. Now Peter Novak, in Original Christianity, brings forth a critical element essential for fully understanding these scriptures. Novak argues that the authors of these early texts subscribed to the Binary Soul Doctrine—an ancient belief system that allows for both reincarnation and an eternal afterlife. Novak’s interdisciplinary approach offers fresh insights on the beliefs and politics of the early church founders. He points out that reincarnation was a commonly held Christian belief until it was voted out of “official” Christianity and the record expunged. This newfound key reveals the true identities of many mysterious Biblical figures, such as Lazarus, Barabbas, Judas, and especially the Apostle Thomas, who may not only have been Jesus’ identical twin brother, but indeed a second Christ in his own right, who lived to produce a genetically identical bloodline. More important still, the rediscovery of the lost theology of Original Christianity means Christ’s central message of personal integrity can again take center stage.

The Liars' Gospel
Author: Naomi Alderman
Publisher: Hachette UK
ISBN: 0316232807
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 301
Book Description
An award-winning writer reimagines the life of Jesus, from the points of view of four people closest to him before his death. This is the story of Yehoshuah, who wandered Roman-occupied Judea giving sermons and healing the sick. Now, a year after his death, four people tell their stories. His mother grieves, his friend Iehuda loses his faith, the High Priest of the Temple tries to keep the peace, and a rebel named Bar-Avo strives to bring that peace tumbling down. It was a time of political power plays and brutal tyranny. Men and women took to the streets to protest. Dictators put them down with iron force. In the midst of it all, one inconsequential preacher died. And either something miraculous happened, or someone lied. Viscerally powerful in its depictions of the period -- massacres and riots, animal sacrifice and human betrayal -- The Liars' Gospel makes the oldest story entirely new.

The Gospel of Anonymous
Author: László Bitó
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1462002064
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
The scribe met Yeshua of Nazareth in the troubled years of his youth and became, for the rest of his life, a true and faithful disciple. As both a victim and a witness to the conflict regarding Yeshuas last days, the scribe felt that he must tell the truth about the events leading up to Yeshuas crucifixion and resurrection; he shows how a man who taught love and compassion became the center of murderous discord. In this first-person testimony, the scribe discusses the great role of Paul in these events and in the persecution of the disciples. He also narrates stories of the loyalty of Judas and the untrue story of his demise, the freeing of Barabbas, and Yeshuas last days in Jerusalem. The scribe provides insight into why Yeshua chose his fate and did not escape his crucifixion. Through the testimony in The Gospel of Anonymous Absolving All Men of the Most Hideous Crime of Deicide, the unnamed scribe communicates the detrimental effects of treachery, prejudice, hatred, and blind devotion to creeds.
