Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most traditions within Christianity would agree that the "gospel" is the "story of the life, death, burial and resurrection of Jesus." Problematically, this common contemporary definition does not fit logically with the biblical texts that reference the term. Consider Mark 1:14, Galatians 3:8, Hebrews 3:16-4:2, Luke 3:18 & 9:6.

Download or read book The Lost and Forgotten Gospel of the Kingdom written by Steven Service and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-03 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: However scandalous it may seem, by the 4th century A.D., the biblical meaning of the term "gospel" was lost. From that time onward, the Judeo-Christian world alternately embraced a proclamation of "the story of the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus." The Gospels are explicit that Jesus did not reveal His intent to die sacrificially until the very end of His life. Therefore, what "gospel" was it that... ...Jesus preached at the beginning of His ministry? Mark 1:14 ...first came to Abraham? Galatians 3:8 ...came to ancient Israel when Moses led the nation? Hebrews 3:16-4:2 ... John the Baptist preached before he baptized Jesus? Luke 3:18 ...was preached by Jesus' disciples, prior to knowing their Rabbi would go to the cross? Luke 9:6 After more than a millennium, the "'gospel' of the kingdom" that was embraced in the 1st century A.D. has been identified once again.

Book excerpt: 'It has been slowly dawning on me over many years that there is a fundamental problem deep at the heart of Christian faith and practice as I have known them . . . we have all forgotten what the four Gospels are about.' With that surprising assertion, Tom Wright launches this ground-breaking work in which he helps us to see the gospel story in radically a new light, and to acknowledge that, for many generations, the Church has been avoiding its full impact and holding back from proclaiming its full meaning. 'Classic Wright: clear, accessible, robust, engaging and challenging.' Paula Gooder in Third Way 'Scholarly, accessible, insightful and provocative.' Christianity 'Wright argues compellingly that the twin themes of kingdom and cross are inseparably linked. . . This is a much-needed reorientation. The book makes its case for 'rethinking' cogently and deserves widespread attention.' Theology

Book excerpt: Two Thieves in Paradise is the historical fictional account of the lives of the men who are crucified next to Yeshua (Jesus). Anthony, a Roman mastermind criminal and Cornelius, an oversized thug team up not only to rob the treasury of the Jewish Temple, but moreover, to destroy the reputation of the Jewish leaders. Mary of Magdalene, a prostitute who is possessed by seven demons, lives with Cornelius. They are saving their money to retire one day on a Greek island in paradise. In an unusual turn of events, Cornelius and Mary are separated. Cornelius inadvertently becomes employed by the tiny man Zaccheus, who serves as the Chief Tax Gatherer of Jerusalem. As the plot unfolds, it becomes evident that Anthony is involved in a battle against the God of the Jews. This is a love story, an adventure, a comedy and a tragedy. The story does not end at the cross, but instead the participants find hope in a realm that exists beyond time. Mature content and may not be appropriate or all audiences. Enjoy!
Book Synopsis The Lost Way by : Stephen J. Patterson
Download or read book The Lost Way written by Stephen J. Patterson and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-10-28 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this rigorously researched and thoughtful study, a leading Jesus Seminar scholar reveals the dramatic story behind the modern discovery of the earliest gospels, accounts that do not portray Jesus exclusively as a martyr but recover a lost ancient Christian tradition centered on Jesus as a teacher of wisdom. The church has long advocated the Pauline view of Jesus as deity and martyr, emphasizing his death and resurrection. But another tradition also thrived from Christianity’s beginnings, one that portrayed Jesus as a teacher of wisdom. In The Lost Way, Stephen Patterson, a leading New Testament scholar and former head of the Jesus Seminar, explores this lost ancient tradition and its significance to the faith. Patterson explains how scholars have uncovered a Gospel that preceded at least three of those in the Bible, which is called Q. He painstakingly demonstrates how historical evidence points to the existence of this common source in addition to Mark—recognized as the earliest Gospel—that both Matthew and Luke used to write their accounts. Q contained a collection of Jesus’s teachings without any narrative content and without accounts of the passion, though being the earliest version shared among his first followers—scripture that embodies a very different orientation to the Christian faith. Patterson also explores other examples of this wisdom tradition, from the discovery of the Gospel of Thomas; to the emergence of Apollos, a likely teacher of Christian wisdom; to the main authority of the church in Jerusalem, Jesus’s brother James. The Lost Way offers a profound new portrait of Jesus—one who can show us a new way to live.

Book Synopsis The Kingdom of God: Preached by Jesus... Forgotten by Us by : Wayne Barrett
Download or read book The Kingdom of God: Preached by Jesus... Forgotten by Us written by Wayne Barrett and published by Christlife Publications. This book was released on 2012-06-01 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The kingdom of God was the prevalent theme of Jesus' teaching and that of the apostles. And yet, it is not the prevalent theme of American Christianity. For many Christians, it is not even a strong concept. Why is that? And what are the implications of this conceptual deficiency? Wayne Barrett's book is a call for renewal of kingdom thinking and kingdom living among Christ's people-particularly those in America. He advocates for Christian living that is informed by a worldview of two kingdoms: the kingdom of God and the kingdom of this world. Topics include: What is the kingdom of God? Who is in it and who is excluded? How should the kingdom of God advance, and what does that advancement look like? How does a Christian discover his or her role in God's kingdom? Barrett also discusses how a Christian's own "script," relating to how one should live or even relating to one's church involvement, can prevent him or her from functioning as a kingdom citizen. The book is both a challenge and an appeal to American Christians to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.

Book Synopsis The Forgotten Gospel of Jesus by : Charles W. Heavilin
Download or read book The Forgotten Gospel of Jesus written by Charles W. Heavilin and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-11-03 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With little or no agreement on the deeper meanings of the gospel of Christ and what it truly means to bear the name Christian, the contemporary church in the United States is in fragmented disarray. Much of our time and energy in church is spent on what others say or think about Christ, often neglecting to focus on his own words. Church problems today frequently arise because we have failed to follow Christ's teachings, preferring to emphasize other biblical passages and looking in the wrong places for our directions. When we return our focus and attention consistently to what Christ has said and discover what it truly means to "take his yoke and learn" from him, today's Christian and today's church will be capable of fulfilling their mission and calling. While exploring the historical and sociological backdrop that precipitated the Church's current confusion and brokenness, this book examines scriptural passages essential to providing a Christ-centered gospel and restoring the concept of vital Christianity. This book results from a lifetime of contemplation on the role of Christianity and the church in today's society and what it means to be truly Christian in today's world. It is my hope that this book will make a difference, bringing about a more Christ-centered Church. Let me behold thy face O blessed Master, O let me see thy beauty and be blessed.

Download or read book The Lost Gospel written by Burton L. Mack and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2013-02-26 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible translation of this important lost gospel of the Bible, with an account if its reconstruction and analysis of its far-reaching implications. This is the first full account of the lost gospel of Jesus’ original followers, revealing him to be a Jewish Socrates who was mythologized into the New Testament Christ. Compiled by his followers during his lifetime, the Book of Q (from Quelle, German for source) became the prime foundation for the New Testament gospels. Once lost, it has now been reconstructed through a century of scholarship. Instead of telling a dramatic story about Jesus’ life as the Christian gospels do, the Book of Q contained only his sayings. The first followers of Jesus focused not upon his life and destiny, but on the social experiment called for by his teachings. Their book collected his proverbs, aphorisms, and parables to offer instruction in living authentically in the midst of a most confusing time. In presenting his own translation, Burton Mack explains how the text of Q was determined and explores the implications of the discovery that Jesus was transformed into the dying and rising messianic savior of Christianity by the New Testament gospels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ is a book by Levi H. Dowling who claimed that he had transcribed the text of the book from the kashic records, a purported compendium of mystical knowledge supposedly encoded in a non-physical plane of existence. In the later 20th century, it was adopted by New Age spiritual groups. The title is derived from the practice in astrology of naming time periods in terms of constellations and their dominant positions in the sky, according to the earth's axial precession. In that system, the Age of Aquarius is approaching.

Book Synopsis The Gospel of Judas, Second Edition by : Rodolphe Kasser
Download or read book The Gospel of Judas, Second Edition written by Rodolphe Kasser and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2008-06-17 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 1,600 years its message lay hidden. When the bound papyrus pages of this lost gospel finally reached scholars who could unlock its meaning, they were astounded. Here was a gospel that had not been seen since the early days of Christianity, and which few experts had even thought existed–a gospel told from the perspective of Judas Iscariot, history’s ultimate traitor. And far from being a villain, the Judas that emerges in its pages is a hero. In this radical reinterpretation, Jesus asks Judas to betray him. In contrast to the New Testament Gospels, Judas Iscariot is presented as a role model for all those who wish to be disciples of Jesus and is the one apostle who truly understands Jesus. Discovered by farmers in the 1970s in Middle Egypt, the codex containing the gospel was bought and sold by antiquities traders, secreted away, and carried across three continents, all the while suffering damage that reduced much of it to fragments. In 2001, it finally found its way into the hands of a team of experts who would painstakingly reassemble and restore it. The Gospel of Judas has been translated from its original Coptic to clear prose, and is accompanied by commentary that explains its fascinating history in the context of the early Church, offering a whole new way of understanding the message of Jesus Christ.
