I Am There

The Gospel of Thomas surfaced in the archaeological discovery of the Nag Hammadi Library around 1945. Unlike the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, it does not narrate Jesus’ life but is solely a collection of one hundred and fourteen of his sayings. Many echo the canonical Gospels, but some do not.

I Am There

Jesus said, “I am the light that is over all things. I am all: From me all has come forth, and to me all has reached. Split a piece of wood; I am there. Lift up the stone, and you will find me there.

”Novak, Philip. The World’s Wisdom (pp.264-265). HarperOne. Kindle-Version.
