  Additional Info
  Where did Christianity come from? Acclaimed author Gregory Riley embarks on a remarkable journey in this readable and persuasive account of the origins of Christianity. Riley demonstrates that early Christians held widely differing beliefs about God, Jesus, the Devil, and the human soul, and follows these beliefs back to their sources in Greek science and philosophy and the religions of the ancient Middle East. An expert on the context in which Christianity arose, Riley maps out a new understanding of the forging of Christianity, and conveys a vital message for today about the true nature of Christian faith as inherently diverse.

  Resurrection Reconsidered : Thomas And John In Controversy

  $23.00

  Clarifying the relationship between the Gospel of Thomas and the Synoptics, Riley sheds fresh light on the doctrinal differences found among first-century disciples. His findings challenge and refute the idea that early Christians believed that Christ physically rose from the dead, emphasizing instead a “spiritual” resurrection. Includes non-transliterated Greek and Hebrew footnotes, indices, and bibliography.
