A Very Literal, Less Anthropomorhic Translation
TRANSLATED BY JOHN MICHAEL WINE Personal Note: I've striven to be faithful to the text, but one's life experience certainly makes itself felt during the translation process. As a member of an unprogrammed Friends Meeting, I work to be true to the historic Quaker testimonies. Peace, Equality, Integrity, Simplicity. I believe these values are at the core of Jesus' message as found in the New Testament. Disclaimer: Though I've taken under graduate as well as seminary level courses in NT Greek, I make no claim to be an authority in the ancient Koine tongue.- The Translator. An inspired and new reading of the New Testament starting from the origional language showing the nuances of so many words.

Legends Of The Early Church
BY J K ELLIOTT An abridged version of "The Apocryphal New Testament", which Elliott published in 1994. Designed for the general reader, clergy and student, the book collects the most interesting of the early Christian texts about Jesus that didn't make the Bible, ranging from stories of his birth in a cave, his childhood escapades, and his secret sayings, to his descent to the underworld, the torments of Hell, Saint Paul baptizing a lion, the death of Pontius Pilate, and many others.

The 47th Walton Lecture
BY BETSY NEALE, RICHARD MITCHELL Early Friends sought to recapture Jesus' original message, to return to "primitive Christianity." The Jesus scholars conclude, that instead of a single, early Christianity there were multiple early Christianities in different communities: Jewish and gentile. The Christianities that survived, Catholic and Eastern Orthodox, were not necessarily closest to Jesus' vision. From the beginning Friends behaved as if the Kingdom of God had already arrived (. As Fox said, "Christ has come to teach his people himself." God is within, and we answer that of God by trying to live in the Kingdom of God
