How to Get Noticed at Easter
We have a new(?) discovery with the Judas gospel. I don't have a lot of comments, but there was just one quote that really stood out.
"You will be cursed by the other generations — and you will come to rule over them," Jesus tells Judas in the document made public Thursday.
One of the criteria used to determine if a document should have been in the canon was, did it agree with the teachings of the rest of the documents. As I remember Jesus never promised that one of this disciples would rule over others. The admonishment was to serve others not rule. Even James and John who begged for special positions were denied. Just being ancient doesn't mean it is factual.
