The Sayings of Jesus is a new comprehensive book on what Jesus
Christ said at the time he walked the Earth. Beautifully written
from the King James version of the bible, this book is complete
with all the sayings of Christ and includes a series of letters
from Paul. Inside this revised edition is famous historical
paintings depicting the life of Jesus from artists around the
world. There is nothing like this book on the market that
represents the words of Jesus. - Z. Bey The shelves of the
libraries and of the bookstores bend beneath the tomes of the
sayings, the bare sayings, of all the other great men; but one will
not find in library or bookstore, in any published book, the
complete sayings of Jesus, the bare sayings in simple sequence,
Christ's own words, separate. This compiler's purpose has been to
enable any reader, whether confirmed Christian or inquiring pagan,
or a frankly detached, to get him a book of CHRIST'S OWN WORDS,
"divested," so runs the title page, "of the context, excepting
those brief portions of the gospel narratives retained to establish
the place, the time, or occasion, or a question the reply to which
is the Master's own answer." Many a reader, arrived at FINIS in the
New Testament itself, has but a hazy picture of Christ on his daily
walks as a circuit preacher everywhere within walking distance; has
but a sketchy outline of the times and occasions-so many
biographers -Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul-each essaying not a
biography as such, not the record of the Teacher's sayings as such,
but intent upon launching each his own conception of Christ's
mission. Christ's sayings complete, brought into a sequence of
times and occasions, but lifted out of contexts alien to the
present purpose, may prove to be a glowing story new not only to
the non-reader, but new even to the whilom New-Testament readers
who have not as yet discerned the "continuities." Devoted readers
will not be diverted from the Great Text. Perhaps other readers-the
casual New-Testament reader and the non-reader-after enjoying these
pages may venture the greater enjoyment: the attentive perusal of
all the gospels and all the epistles, perhaps of all the New
Testament.
