About this product
Product Information
Of all the major religions, Christianity is the only one that has utterly rejected sexuality as one of the many paths that can lead to enlightenment and salvation. But if Jesus was indeed the Word made flesh and serious consideration is given to the mystery of his Incarnation, is it reasonable that physical love would have been prohibited to him? Drawing from the canical and apocryphal gospels, the Hebrew esoteric tradition, and gsticism, Jean-Yves Leloup shows that Jesus did t come to save humanity from the life of the flesh so that it would truly transfigure all people. Leloup explains that when Saint Paul said it was good to be without women, he did t cite any words of Jesus in support of this contention. In fact, Paul's statement utterly contradicts the words of God in Genesis : It is t good that man should be alone. Leloup argues that the elimination of the divine feminine and sacred sexuality set in motion by Paul's words does t reflect the true teachings of Christ, and that the transformation of Jesus into a celibate is the true heresy. His research restores Christ's true human sexuality and shows it to be a vital part of humanity's spirituality. Leloup contends that by understanding the sacred nature of the embrace shared by a man and woman as a true reflection of humanity made in God's image, Christianity can again become the powerful path of transfiguration Christ intended.

Always happy with the Nile's service. Whilst dispatch can take longer than others, books are sourced at a great price from locations worldwide and from prior experience I know to order in advance. I ordered three expensive textbooks for uni, two weeks later they were dispatched and the next day received - all earlier than expected timeframe. Packaged very well, books intact. Great seller, updated tracking and items as described. A+++
