Leading historian of the early church, Bart Ehrman offers the first comprehensive account of the newly discovered Gospel of Judas, revealing what this legendary lost gospel contains and why it is so important for our understanding of Christianity. Ehrman describes how he first saw the Gospel of Judas--surprisingly, in a small room above a pizza parlor in a Swiss town near Lake Geneva--and he recounts the fascinating story of where and how this ancient papyrus document was discovered, how it moved around among antiquities dealers in Egypt, the United States, and Switzerland, and how it came to be restored and translated. More important, Ehrman gives the reader a complete and clear account of what the book teaches and he shows how it relates to other Gospel texts--both those inside the New Testament and those outside of it, most notably, the Gnostic texts of early Christianity. Finally, he describes what we now can say about the historical Judas himself as well as his relationship with Jesus, suggesting that one needs to read between the lines of the early Gospels to see exactly what Judas did and why he did it. The Gospel of Judas presents an entirely new view of Jesus, his disciples, and the man who allegedly betrayed him. It raises many questions and Bart Ehrman provides illuminating and authoritative answers, in a book that will interest anyone curious about the New Testament, the life of Jesus, and the history of Christianity after his death. take care Jah bless.

I hope this helps: Keep on fighting, Allen! You'll get to meet your daughter one day. If you give up now, then you will know for sure that you will never meet her. But as long as you keep going, you still have a shot.
By the way, you're poetry is very musical! I couldn't help but read it in a singing voice.
Michael, tell your friend that there are some people in the world who have it harder in life than others, God knows why, but that just makes them stronger. They have to feel things that others never are able to feel and many times they never deserved the abuse and neglect that other people had towards them. Tell your friend that he has something many people don't have and he should be darn proud of it-- he has managed to develop a strength to life that most people don't, and he carries the weight of the world unlike so many, and this makes him 100 times more beautiful than anyone else. So, tell him to stop thinking he is ugly. Also, even though he doesn't feel like he is loved there is always Jesus who thinks he is beautiful and loves him more than the most loving mother could ever love her son, despite the fact that your friend is, like everyone else, a sinner and he's done things that anger God and maybe he's done terrible things to others that make him hate himself, Jesus thought he was so valuable that He decided to die for him, so he wouldn't have to feel guilty, so he could feel loved, so when he felt worthless, he could talk to God and instantly feel much better, so when he leaves this wretched world, he will pass to a new one where he will no longer feel no pain, where he will no longer feel ugly, where not a tear will fall from this eyes and he will feel the greatest love that ever exists. All because Jesus loves him and died for him. Please tell your friend to take this into consideration. May God bless his soul.
Dear Jim, I honestly think that in this world there are people who just do things because it looks good on them socially and there are people who are watching them do good and they love praise. However, there is still that percentage of people who really do care and they have good intentions and their hearts are warm with love. I think that getting a G.E.D in prison will give the prisoners a sense of personal achievement that maybe they never experienced before in their lifetime, even if it seems like a measly high school diploma. Some people really want the prisoners to feel that triumph that nobody but themselves was able to reach. I am 16 years old and I'm currently in 11th grade in high school. I'm a straight A student and I tell you this because I know how it feels to put so much effort into something and in the end I am able to see the results of all that hard work. Sometimes, like you, I feel that the system is killing me, making me work beyond my capacity, making me stay up late and jeopardize my health and my growth. But in the end, it pays of. Some teachers I know just give me hard test because they might not like the class. But others, I know teach us so much and make us know so much because they genuinely care about our education. You might feel like it's hurting you, but maybe some of them really care. With respect on your rape experience, my heart goes out to you. One of my biggest fears in life is being raped. I can't fathom how terrible it really must be.
