Description
The Jesus of the four Gospels--and we have no knowledge of any other--appears mainly as a healer and a teacher--that is, as a healer of the soul. Three of the historically most certain facts about him were (1) his pacifism, (2) his feminism, and (3) that his women followers were the true founders of Christianity! The proof of these astounding claims you will find in the book.
