DESCRIPTION:
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. 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.. Novak's interdisciplinary approach offers fresh insights on the beliefs and politics of the early church foun
Avida said awe-mazing. this book has a very well researched introduction and more then I expectedhard to put down and so informative which explains a lot of questions regarding our life here. A must read for all seekers.. Original Christianity I expected more devoted to other writings and a bit less to the Gospel of Thomas. I agree with the author about both the consciousness and subconsciousness, but would liked to have more interpretation of other gnostic writings in addition to the interpretations of the Gospel of Thomas.. Tracy Dreer said Feedback. Again I do not like the way we have to leave feedback on Amazon website now. Please go back to the old way.This seller is highly recommended!
