My name is not Thomas, its Garry. Thomas (as in ‘doubting’) was an apostle of Christ who carried his teachings throughout India. I, on the other hand, am planted on a few acres in southern middle Tennessee and I am no sage. Like most all of you who stumble across this site I’m a seeker of truth wandering through a world where truth is often shrouded by error and deceit. Such is our lot.
I sincerely hope you find your truth and enjoy your journey.

We all have beliefs. Most believe in something greater than themselves. Many trust in God. Our beliefs, faiths, and trusts are developed through what we’ve been taught or have learned through discovery.
As we examine the Apostle Thomas, as opposed to just accepting what others would have us know of him (or not know of him), we realize just how vital ‘discovery’ is to determining truth.
The great discovery we find in his writings is not the ‘truthiness’ of his words (I leave to each of you your own understanding) but rather it is in the existence of his writings at all.
His truth emerges as a quite whisper against the howl of error and deceit. And so it would seem that Thomas W(h)ispered across time, space, and through the great veil.

I have never heard of 46th Saying in the Gospel of Thomas. Help me out. No book of thomas in any bible that I have read.
Bill,
You will not find the Gospel of Thomas in the collection of writings that make up the New Testament. In fact, you would not have heard of it at all if it a surviving copy had not been found among the several ‘books’ at the Nag Hammadi site.
While we knew that the Gospel existed through early church mention, and we had a few shards of the text written in Greek, until the find at Nag Hammadi it did not exist as a complete document.
