The Acts of Andrew: A story about the origin of the canonical books
Have you ever wondered how the New Testament came into being? Who are the authors of all these books? In this story, we follow one of the lesser-known apostles, Andrew, as he navigates the politics and intrigue of the new Christian communities. "The Acts of Andrew" is an introspective look at the meanings behind Christian traditions and gives a voice to Bible skeptics. For curious minds, Andrew's story addresses the difficult passages of the Bible and gives a fresh look at the history of Christianity. Synopsis
Andrew has been secluded in his study room ever since he began writing his manuscript. He seldom takes part in the meetings of the Grand Council of the Christian Community of Jerusalem anymore. Twenty years after the death of their master, Andrew no longer recognizes the community. He is also unsure of what to make of the rising popularity of Paul, a self-proclaimed apostle who causes much distress among his brothers of the Grand Council. He had no idea that an unexpected visit from an old pupil was about to change his life and, in turn, his perception of the entire Christian movement. The first part of this book recounts the story of the Acts of Andrew, a fictionalized account of my findings. My research focused on the origins of the canonical books of the New Testament. In the second part of this book, we find an analysis of the principal books of the New Testament that inspired the story. How were the Gospels created? Who wrote first, and who drew inspiration from the material of the others? Who was Paul really, being a central figure in the founding of Christianity? And finally, did the authors of the various New Testament books truly have noble intentions?
