The Gospel of Thomas (Bruce Jones)
Bruce Jones from the Passages class at PRUMC examines The Gospel of Thomas. Bruce adds:
From a recent daily missive by Richard Rohr: “Remember,
it's God in you that loves God. You, on your own, don't really know how to love
God. It's Christ in you that recognizes Christ. It's the Holy Spirit, whose
temple you are (see 1 Corinthians 3:16), that responds to the Holy Spirit. Like
recognizes like. That's why all true cognition is really recognition
("re-cognition" or knowing something again). Only so far as you have
surrendered to Christ and allowed the Christ in you to come to fullness can you
love Christ. It's Christ in you that recognizes and loves Christ.”
