This book is very much about The Gospel of Thomas - that much-too-little-understood "alternative" gospel which the early Christian church condemned and banished into virtual obscurity for nearly 2000 years. But mostly, the book is about Jesus. Thomas's gospel acts as our guide as we go through the book delving into what the author feels Jesus is trying to convey to us. So much of that is about Awareness - Consciousness - of God's Kingdom as ever-presence NOW, the author contends. Above all, this book is about precisely that which the author wished to convey in the book's title: Jesus As I Have Come To Know And To Deeply Love Him. The author has come to know a very approachable and human Jesus, as well as a courageous spiritual and social rebel who faced-up to both Rome's Empire and the Jewish aristocracy without blinking. The universal love of Jesus was increasingly experienced by the author as the book progressed, deepening the author's own love for Jesus.
