In the end Thomas created Christianity and the Church: The five element model of the Jesus parable (Paperback)

Jesus said, "<i>I shall give you what no eye has seen and what no ear has heard and what no hand has touched and what has never occurred to the human mind</i>" <p>This is not a bible quote, but it is a quote from Jesus - the Jesus of Thomas. The Thomas you might know as Doubting Thomas: "<i>God's Kingdom is within you</i>" is a bible quote, but it is also from Thomas.<br>In fact, the very core of the bible comes from Thomas: the gospels are entirely based on Thomas; <b>it was Thomas who created Jesus, just as the fictitious main character of his text</b>, who speaks about seeking the kingdom inside you, and who ridicules and rejects the Pharisees and Jewish religion.<br>The text known as the Gospel of Thomas gained massive popularity among the Jews in the first century and raised a multitude of questions, many of which will be answered here. It isn't a religious text, it is feverously anti-religious. And it is explicitly targeted against Jewish religion in particular </p><p>This book will also give you what no eye has seen and what no ear has heard and what no hand has touched and what has never occurred to the human mind: <b>in order to counter the words of the Jesus of Thomas, the canonical gospels were written</b>.<br>Mark created his version of Jesus, introducing many errors while doing so, which Luke, Matthew and John had to fix - sometimes they did so reluctantly, sometimes they even simply refused to do so. Beyond a doubt it will become clear which Jesus parables were written by Thomas, and that they were written by Thomas, and which parables were made up by the gospel-writers </p><p><b>The five element model of each Jesus parable is key</b> subject, begin, transformation action, end and result - a construct that the gospel-writers missed by a mile, in the parables they copied from Thomas as well as in their own parable inventions, such as the parable of the Prodigal Son.<br>Throughout the story the struggle of the gospel-writers will become apparent, including their agreements and disagreements with each other, their conflicts of interest - and how and why they undid or overdid some of the work of their predecessors. The gospel-writers themselves will prove that their Jesus never existed, could never have existed, and they will silently testify to the fact that most words that they put in Jesus' mouth were never spoken, and simply couldn't have been spoken </p><p><b><i>And that their Jesus is not theirs, but the Jesus of Thomas</i></b></p>
