| The Lost Gospels [1/9] |
 |
The Lost Gospels, presented by Anglican
priest Pete Owen Jones, is a fascinating
exploration into the huge number of ancient
Christian texts that didn't make it into the
New Testament. Shocking and challenging,
these were works in that presented a Jesus
who didn't die, who took revenge on his
enemies and who kissed Mary Magdalene on the
mouth. This Jesus is unrecognisable from that
found in the traditional books of the New
Testament.
Pete travels through Egypt and the former
Roman Empire looking at the emerging evidence
of a Christian world that's very different
from the one we know. He discovers that in
addition to the gospels of Mark, Matthew,
Luke and John, there were over 70 gospels,
acts, letters and apocalypses circulating in
the early Church.
Through these lost Gospels, Owen Jones
reconstructs the intense intellectual and
political struggles for orthodoxy that were
fought in the early centuries of
Christianity, a battle involving different
Christian sects, each convinced that their
gospels were true and sacred.
The worldwide success of Dan Brown's The Da
Vinci Code has sparked new interest about the
origins of the Christian faith. Pete Owen
Jones sets out the context in which heretical
texts like the Gospel of Mary emerged. He
also strikes a cautionary note: if these lost
Gospels had been allowed to flourish,
Christianity may well have faced an uncertain
future, or perhaps not survived at all.
The documentary, although a great feat of
scholarship falls short of exploring some
other important manuscripts such as the
Gospel of Judas and the Gospel of Barnabas.
It also fails to eplore the evidences in the
gospels of the other possibility of Christ's
nature: that he was entirely human.
However, the question that really needs to be
asked is: isn't God himself supposed to
decide what comprises of His book?
