An excerpt to give you a foretaste:
Jesus' gospel was that Israel's long story had reached its climax in him—that he had come to reunite heaven and earth and usher in the kingdom of God, a God-saturated society of peace and justice and love. Jesus' central message was that this in-breaking kingdom is available now, to all. That anyone, no matter who you are, where you come from, or what your station in life is, can enter this kingdom and be "blessed" (or "happy") with God. You can have this new kind of life if you will put your trust and confidence in Jesus for the whole of your life.
Is this how you understand the gospel?
In Jesus' gospel, the call to become an apprentice makes perfect sense. If the kingdom of God is "near" but is not a kingdom with borders and passports—in fact, it's been "hidden…from the wise and the learned"—the it makes sense that we'd need some serious training in how to access this extraordinary new society and enter the inner life of God that's been made available to us through Jesus. We'd need access to a new power to break off our old life habits (that belong to the kingdom of this world) and become who we were always meant to be: people of the new kingdom.

Amazon Description: This collection of apocryphal texts supersedes the best-selling edition by M.R. James, which was originally published in 1924.

Bible Gateway has this Bible available online, but I cannot find it anywhere else, except on Amazon for $668. It would be a wonderful addition to Logos.
