The Gospel of Life (Gospel of Thomas)

Today I look at the first saying in the Gospel of Thomas. It says, “And he said, ‘Whoever finds the correct interpretation of these sayings will never die.’” Another translation says, "Whoever finds the interpretation of these sayings will not experience death." Another puts it, “Whoever discovers what these sayings mean will not taste death.”The theme is Life. Eternal life. It is about conquering death. This is the theme of the Gospel of Thomas.  It is the Gospel of Life. The purpose of this gospel is knowing eternal life. In exploring this theme I look at the four ways of salvation in classic Indian thought: the devotional path called bhakti, the path of works called karma, and the path of knowledge called jnana, and the path of meditation called raja. I show how they are present in Christianity. View Marshall's books here:https://www.amazon.com/stores/Marshall-Davis/author/B001K8Y0RU
