Judas and the Gospel of Jesus

You may have seen the displays in Waterstones relating to the ‘Gospel of Judas’, a third century document, which some have claimed, shows what Jesus’ teaching really concerned. Tom Wright, the brilliant New Testament scholar and bishop, has answered the claims in a readable style that enable the reader to have greater confidence in the four gospels contained in Scripture. He allows us to see how the Gospel of Judas actually concerns itself with a faith that wants to escape the world, whereas the Gospel of Jesus concerns itself with the transformation of the world.

Review written by Neil Hudson, Elim pastor & church consultant

Post Written by Neil Hudson
I am employed by church for a day a week, and my role is to keep an eye on the overall strategy of the church, have a major part to play in the teaching and preaching, and to tell good stories about what God has done with us to others. My other day job is with the London Institute of Contemporary Christianity. I work as a church consultant with a small group of churches (around 15 of them) scattered across the country, from the full range of denominations, thinking through with them how we can best develop churches that are able to nurture really positive, whole-life disciples of Jesus. I love it!
