Guest guest Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Anyone knows something about the Gospel of the holy twelve: "An Irish clergyman, Rev. G. J. Ouseley claims to have discovered the Original Gospel from which the present Four Gospels were derived, which, he says, was "preserved in one of the Buddhist monasteries in Tibet, where it was hidden by some of the Essene Community for safety from the hands of the corrupters, and is now for the first time translated from the Aramaic." http://reluctant-messenger.com/essene/gospel_intro.htm Regards Lars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Hi Lars, Here is a fairly cogent critique of the document: http://home.swipnet.se/corbie/Fuskwww/twelve.html And a somewhat more entertaining, but perhaps fractionally less convincing, critique: http://www.tektonics.org/lp/ouseley01.html [begin quote:] We are told that [this Gospel] is derived from "one of the most ancient and complete of early Christian fragments, preserved by one of the monasteries of the Buddhist monks in Thibet, where it was hidden by some of the Essene community for safety from the hands of corrupters..." But don't plan that trip to Tibet just yet for a look, or for the purpose of verification such as carbon dating: The editors (among them, Emmanuel Swedenborg) didn't actually see this document -- it was given to them "By the Divine Spirit of the Gospel" as a revelation of "a higher Christianity." [end quote] Except, I suppose, for the fact that the alleged gospel promotes vegetarianism, this seems pretty wildly off-topic for this e-group. , Lars Hedström <lars@2...> wrote: > Anyone knows something about the Gospel of the holy twelve: > > "[....] Ouseley claims to have discovered the Original Gospel [....] > > http://reluctant-messenger.com/essene/gospel_intro.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" OK. No matter if The Gospel of the Holy Twelve exist or not, what Ouseley writes about the Correctors I think is right. The message of Jesus and the original christians, I am sure is twisted. Er du fra Norge? :-) mvh Lars Hedström Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
