Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. This is a work dedicated to answering the call of mankind for a one world religion, or, more accurately, a religious outlook that can not just coexist with modern science and other world religions, but be molded to encapsulate all religious and scientific thought. Hopefully through propagating this outlook we can unite the peoples of the Earth in order to stop the seemingly inevitable self-destruction of mankind. The author poses that a Gnostic reading of the Gospel of John contains the knowledge to accomplish this goal and alludes to the emergence of this idea as being the true meaning of "second coming." In this book the author looks at the story of Jesus and compares it with the history and the context of the biblical writings themselves in order to get a new more accurate vision of Jesus, John, Peter, and Christianity as a whole. The author also sheds light on what Christianity's place and purpose could be among re-emerging Gnostic thought, the diverse religious cultures of the world, and it's possible role in stopping this pending self-destruction.
