Sequel to Son of God (1), “A Christianity before Christianity” studies the re-emergence of ancient gnosticism, seekers of secret knowledge ‘from the heart’, and the sensational find of Nag Hammadi: Ancient, unknown manuscripts which throw a new light on the origins of Christianity… If the Gospels weren’t formulated until generations after his death and the creed devised even centuries later, what do we truly know of Jesus Christ? Did an orthodox Church on the rise obliterate an older Christian faith? The shaping of the Christian myth.. And the discovery of hidden gospels which have come to haunt the Church of Rome and Protestantism alike..
