The Advaita Show #50 – Tim Freke, Gospel of the Second Coming

Hey folks

I promised to post this interview up many months ago but totally forgot! I recorded this for my G’Day World show but though you might all enjoy it as well.

Gospel Of The Second Coming

Tim Freke is the co-author (with his writing partner Peter Gandy) of many books about the Jesus myth – including THE JESUS MYSTERIES and THE LAUGHING JESUS. I chatted with him recently about one of their books “The Gospel of the Second Coming”, a marvelous book that manages to combine humour and insight – it explains the Jesus myth as a Gnostic parable. As Tim points out during our chat – nobody really thinks there was an historical “good Samaritan” or “prodigal son”. They are understood to be parables. Tim explains that the whole Jesus story is a series of parables wrapped up in another parable – the parable of Jesus himself.
