Very possibly the only book (or one of few books) of its kind out there, which benefits its value; however, the idential sayings from the cannonical gospels and the gospel of Thomas are all considered individually, so it gets somewhat repetitive.A decent source, though.

I thoroughly enjoyed this delivery from Ricky Mayotte. With this and the incredible "The Autobiography of Jesus of Nazareth and the Missing Years" by Richard G. Patton my spirit has taken wings.

A lifelong student of the history of religion, Ricky Alan Mayhotte has produced what can only be called a seminal, breakthrough work that should be read by every member of the clergy and ever member of the Christian congregations they serve regardless of denominational affiliation. The Complete Jesus is nothing short of a complete and exhaustive collection of sayings by Jesus as recording in 23 documents surviving from antiquity. In addition to the four biblical gospels and "Book of Revelations", this ancient sources include Christian Gnostic writings and New Testament Apocrypha ranging from "The Book of Thomas", to "The Gospel of Mary", to "The Apocryphon of James", to "The Sophia of Jesus Christ", to "The Acts of John", to the "Epistle of Titus", to "The Apocalypse of Peter". The sayings of Jesus are impressively organized into nine chapters: Commandments, Parables, Jesus Speaking About Himself, Warnings And Admonitions, Teachings And Proverbs, Hymns And Prayers, Jesus Laughing, Diverse Doctrine, Apocalyptic And Revelation. Enhanced with appendices that provide the reader with the descriptions of the New Testament books, the Gnostic documents, and the Apocrypha writings which served as the sources for the diverse quotations from Jesus. "Jesus said, Who ever finds the world and becomes rich, let him renounce the world."
