Earliest Book Of Jesus Sayings Has Been Located - Jesus quote "1. The tool of God is Chaos. You can see its great beauty in everything. The magi
A page from the Coptic book called"The Sayings of Jesus the Christ"said to be written by the disciple Thaddaeus, 11 years after the death of Jesus. Scholars feel they have finally found the Q document.

Scholars seem to agree that the 'Saying of Jesus the Christ' might be the source book that the writers of the Synoptic Gospels and the Gospel of John used as reference.

[link to conjecturenews.com]

Here are a few of the translated verses from the codex 'The Sayings of Jesus the Christ':

1. The tool of God is Chaos. You can see its great beauty in everything. The magicians can study a lifetime and tell you no more than this.

2. The earth gives you food. This gives you time for play. You are children of God.

3. The commandments have been written in your heart. You all know right from wrong. Even the murderer knows this. It is why he must lie in court.

4. Do not worry about tomorrow. What you do today is what creates tomorrow. Today is all you have.

5. Man created the courts for judgement. Some of you will not listen to your heart; thus you must be jailed so your heart can be heard. Do not judge one another outside of the court. You will become your judgement.

6. Discord in the heart arises from ownership and greed. Do you think you can buy heaven? War is the discord of ownership.

7. When the tax collector comes, give him his due to leave you. His wretchedness is his reward.

8. Love God with all your heart. Prove your love by treating others as you want to be treated. This is the law of God.

9. Whomever has extra money from preaching my words serves the Evil One.

10. More is less and less is more. God gave you eyes and ears. Why don't you use them?

11. Give to those who need it. Help them until they can help themselves.

12. Your judgement is clouded by the log in your eye.

13. The smallest of seeds is the mustard seed, yet see the large plant it produces when put into good soil. Truth is your good soil.

14. Evil is only chosen because it is easier at first, but it becomes more difficult as you follow its path. Good is difficult at first, but becomes easy as time passes. Evil is the long, long path to God. Some die along the way and spend their eternity in the haunted realm.

15. Be careful of thinking you know God's secrets; for surely you do not.

Scholars seem to agree that the 'Saying of Jesus the Christ' might be the source book that the writers of the Synoptic Gospels and the Gospel of John used as reference. Scholars refer to this as the Q document (Q=source). One wonders why some of these early Christian documents were left out of the original canon of scriptures. Perhaps verse 9 above has something to do with it.

Further research indicates that this is indeed a fake, but not a fraud. The author who wrote this was conducting an experiment to put himself into the heads of the gospel writers by composing his own apocryphal gospel. It was never meant to be taken as real.

If the hypothetical "Q" were ever found it would be big news all over the world.

If this is REAL(tm) then I totally agree that Jesus H Christ could have been fore-planning the FREE PLANET ethos - it's totally relevant to living here for free as envisaged by me, a non-believer.

Free Planet - simulation goes live - will you survive?

Thank you. This is what happens when you give treasures to a public institution. In fact it is probably not lost but you will not know about it.

These few lines make thirsty for more, and this is seldom from a religious book.

You are a moron! Seriously, do you know what Q would be like? Study the synoptics and what they have in common; that would be in Q -- these texts are not like the synoptics at all. Therefore, not Q. Moron.

Re: Earliest Book Of Jesus Sayings Has Been Located - Jesus quote "1. The tool of God is Chaos. You can see its great beauty in everything. The magi
A number of years back, I got interested in trying to put myself "inside" the heads of the gospel writers. I also wanted to brush the "sawdust of the classroom" off of what I'd learned in the field of biblical studies.

What follows is the result of my little exercise: an entire "early second-century apocryphal gospel," complete with scholarly essays. I omit the detailed tables of texual parallels, as well as the approximately one-third of the Gospel of Thaddaeus which I also wrote up in the "original" Greek...


so these are the words of Yurii Stepanovich Grigoriev?

Clever.

Where do the Saying of Jesus (at the start of this post) come from? Same source, different link?

Notice there is no Gospel of Thaddeus. The only "sayings" gospel I'm familiar with is the Gospel of Thomas and it doesn't even include all of these sayings.

The text was surely not from Jesus talking in the first verse from God as a magician. Magic and mystic are usually seen dark hat for the Jews, so either Jesus was not a Jew and praised the magicians or was a Jew and it is a fake - I will call for the later because the magicians usually atheists or agnostic after having gone through the fall of Lemuria and then Atlantis. The magicians would call nobody in flesh the son of God (or they would have made the first step of accepting a personified God back into their lives).

That's just what every Christian Preacher, Minister, Rabbi does. Think about how many people over the centuries have made changes, destroyed, manipulated the Word.

But whose words? This book has not been edited. It's untouched, still stock. A true glimpse into history.

That's where law staates "9. Whomever has extra money from preaching my words serves the Evil One.

Guess that's the key extra. Convenient when you don't have to pay taxes. Number 3 isn't bad at all either.

Right from wrong. Simple enouge; it doesn't need "experts" telling you what God is saying, it's impossible.

Can not be done.
