Story
Jesus was a man of few words, simple words, and a deeply challenging message. However, through the years his words and message have been clouded with additions and retractions. How can we possibly know the words he spoke? What were his original teachings? Where did his message stop and the many changes begin? Hidden in the gospels themselves are the source materials containing the original message preached by Jesus. Before the gospels were written, there were proto-gospels, notes, lists, and collections of sayings used to construct the gospels we have today.

What form did Christianity take in the first 30 years? Before the Jewish Christians were slaughtered by Rome and before the emergence of the Pauline sect, while the faith was still under the guiding hand of James, the brother of Jesus, what did the pure and unaltered church look like? By examining the Didache, the "Q" document, and the book of James we will look back into the first years of the faith.

A gospel, as ancient and authentic as any of the gospels that the Christian bible contains, was buried deep in the Egyptian desert after an edict was sent out in the 4th century to have all copies of it destroyed. Fortunately, some rebel monks were wise enough to refuse - and thanks to their disobedience and spiritual bravery, we have several manuscripts of the only gospel that was written in the name of a woman: The Gospel of Mary Magdalene.

If you have ever felt as if there was more to existence than you could see, that there was another world just behind the curtain of your mind, just out of reach, which contains the full truth, the words of Jesus according to The Gnostic Gospel of Thomas will echo within you and lead you into light.

Story
Pistis Sophia is a Gnostic text discovered in 1773, possibly written between the 3rd and 4th centuries AD. The existing manuscript, which some scholars place in the late 4th century, relates one Gnostic group's teachings of the transfigured Jesus to the assembled disciples (including his mother Mary, Mary Magdalene, and Martha). In this text, the risen Jesus had spent eleven years speaking with his disciples, teaching them only the lower mysteries. After eleven years, he receives his true garment and is able to reveal the higher mysteries revered by this group.

Perhaps no figure in biblical scholarship has been the subject of more controversy and debate than Mary Magdalene. Although she is discussed in the gospels of Philip, Thomas, Peter, and Bartholomew in the collection of writings known as the Gnostic gospels that were rejected by the early Christian church, there is no better insight into this mysterious and influential woman than Mary's own gospel.

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

Story
The Gospel in Brief is a 1902 synthesis of the four gospels of the New Testament into one narrative of the life of Jesus by Russian author Leo Tolstoy. The work focuses on Jesus's teachings to his followers, presumably those which Tolstoy found most compelling. The Gospel in Brief is thought by some to be deeply reflective of Tolstoy's own interpretation of Christianity. The account presented in Tolstoy's gospel is also notable in its sharp contrast with the contemporaneous views of the Russian Orthodox Church.

This fascinating 24-lecture course is a richly detailed guide to the theology, sacred writings, rituals, and outstanding human figures of the Gnostic movements. What we call "Gnosticism" comprised a number of related religious ideologies and movements, all of which sought " gnosis," or immediate, direct, and intimate knowledge of God. The Gnostics had many scriptures, but unlike the holy texts of other religions, Gnostic scriptures were often modified over time.

High quality study of Gnosticism

Summary
And the companion (Consort) was Mary of Magdala (Mary Magdalene). The Lord loved Mary more than all the other disciples and he kissed her often on her mouth (the text is missing here and the word "mouth" is assumed). The others saw his love for Mary and asked him: "Why do you love her more than all of us?" The Savior replied, "Why do I not love you in the same way I love her?" (The Gospel of Philip)
Peter said to Mary; "Sister we know that the Savior loved you more than all other women. Tell us the words of the Savior that you remember and know, but we have not heard and do not know. Mary answered him and said; "I will tell you what He hid from you." (The Gospel of Mary Magdalene)
Seizing on the texts above, writers of both fiction and nonfiction allowed their pens to run freely amidst conjecture and postulation of marriage and children between Jesus and Mary Magdalene. The writers of The Da Vinci Code and Holy Blood, Holy Grail took these passages and expanded them into storylines that have held audiences captive with anticipation. Did Jesus take Mary to be his wife? Could the couple have produced children? Gnostic theology leaves open the possibility.

really great
I think you need some non-religious perspective, perhaps shamanic perspective to get some of this. for example, when Jesus is speaking about when a female becomes male she will enter the kingdom of heaven... this is not literally. he is talking about SACRED UNION WITHIN. The coming together of the inner masculine and feminine.

I fell in love with the narrator
Would you listen to The Gnostic Gospels of Philip, Mary Magdalene, and Thomas again? Why?
yes, the information was well organized and well presented. And I like the narrator's voice and style.
What other book might you compare The Gnostic Gospels of Philip, Mary Magdalene, and Thomas to and why?
The Book of Enoch A Complete Guide and Reference, The Book of Giants and the First and Second Books of Enoch; all because of the narrator.
Any additional comments?
If I hadn't heard the Book of Enoch A complete Guide and Reference first, this title would have made me want to check out other titles that Dennis Logan has narrated and listen to them all.

All christians should check this out.
I'm not saying that I am certain this is a purer truth than the English translated standard bible, which has errors in it if you reference the original Greek and hebrew manuscripts. what I am saying is it's good to know what gnostics believe. How can you tell someone that it's a wrong if you never even studied it? I. not saying it's wrong though. I personally need to research more. Some of it makes more sense than the traditional constantinian bible that we have today.

awesome sause
I always wondered why the Bible was about a diety that seemed to have a big ol multiple personality disorder, granted I imagine the creater of everything both seen and not, know and unknown, understood and in ignorance would probably need to be. I wonder if somebody will publish a new Bible that includes these books finally, they paint a way difteent picture for us when all together.

One, Long, Run-on Sentence
Dennis Logan's listless, toneless delivery drains any and all literary interest out of this book. How he manages to speak without hinting at any punctuation is astonishing. It is difficult to image a career where this kind of "communication" would be valuable. I am actually very interested in the subject but this is the second book that I have tried narrated by him and there will not be a third. I wish that Audible had a feature where I could filter out any book done by him.

Interesting, but poor narrating and editing
Is there anything you would change about this book?
Don't know enough about the subject to comment on the accuracy or not.
Would you be willing to try another one of Dennis Logan’s performances?
Probably not. Not only did he narrate in what I was calling his "Monster Truck Announcer" voice (THIS SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY! WE'LL SELL YOU THE WHOLE SEAT BUT YOU'LL ONLY NEED THE EDDDGGGEEE!!!"), but it was so poorly edited as to be distracting. His vocal flubs and retakes were left in as is, so it was hard to listen to him flub a line and then repeat the same line once or twice more (although to be fair, that was the result of the editor and not Logan's performance).
