Defrocking the Gospel of Thomas: Hidden Spiritual Mysteries Unveiled (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781512045406)

DEFROCKING THE GOPSEL OF THOMAS-WHAT "THE CHURCH" HAS FAILED TO TELL US "An amazing turnaround of Jesus' teachings-profoundly penetrating " "A shape-shifting treatment of spiritual discernment, from Jesus to the guide he left us." "A teacher's dream-opening the doors of enlightenment through spiritual metaphor." Many of us who follow Jesus have formed and maintain a religion about the man Jesus, rather than learning how to live from his teachings. So we are generally left with finding our view of God in the words and images that come to us from those outside ourselves. Jesus implored us to form an intimate relationship with our inner Voice, the only Voice of spiritual authority-cosmic, Christ consciousness-which speaks so clearly the Truth about living from within. In DEFROCKING THE GOSPEL OF THOMAS, Young's explanations of the allegorical conversation between Jesus and Thomas take us beyond what most others suggest their meaning to be. The explanations take the reader to a place deep within, where the voice of Wisdom brilliantly replaces the musings of self-importance. Indeed, this is a meal containing only Wisdom, where each bite is to be savored with our spiritual palate, in our heart of hearts.
