By Jean-Yves Leloup

Theologian Jean-Yves Leloup's translation from the Coptic and his analysis of the Gospel of Philip are presented here for the first time in English.

The Gospel of Thomas
By Jean-Yves Leloup
$14.95
In this new translation of the Gospel of Thomas, Jean-Yves Leloup shows that the teachings of Jesus recorded by Thomas have much in common with gnostics of non-dualistic schools. Like them, Jesus preaches the coming of a new man of knowledge, moving from limited to unlimited consciousness and the self-knowledge that will make each of us, too, a Christ.
Judas and Jesus
By Jean-Yves Leloup
$14.95
The betrayal of Jesus to the Romans was Jesus’s idea, explains Jean-Yves Leloup. Careful investigation of the gospels, various apocryphal texts, and the Coptic codex known as the Gospel of Judas, lead him to conclude that there is more to the story of Judas than a simple demonstration of humanity’s inherent failings.
The Sacred Embrace of Jesus and Mary
By Jean-Yves Leloup
$14.95
Of the major religions, Christianity is the only one that has rejected sexuality as a path that can lead to enlightenment and salvation. Jean-Yves Leloup contends that the sacred nature of the embrace shared by man and woman is a true reflection of humanity made in God’s image and can be, as Christ intended, a powerful path of transfiguration.
