The Mustard Seed

by Osho · 1978

+ Want to read

Examining the ancient Gospel of Thomas—a Gnostic text supressed by the early church—Osho paints a portrait of Jesus that is radical and revolutionary, a Jesus who makes demands that run counter to the safe and gentle person of traditonal Christian teaching.
