Gospel of Thomas--Jesus said what, now?
We chat about the Gospel of Thomas, and whether or not it can tell us anything about Jesus. This is an ancient gospel that didn't make it into the Bible, but may have been a contemporary to the gospels that did. That is, it likely existed side by side Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Even more, it likely competed with them to become the dominant view of Christianity. Here's the thing, though. While it shares many sayings and parables with the Bible, there are many sayings that are very peculiar. We take a look at both the familiar and strange, and consider what Thomas can tell us about the Jesus of Nazareth who roamed the earth so many years ago.
