Sayings of Christ

"Sayings of Christ."—It is believed that a new canonical Gospel has been discovered in Egypt, according to an official announcement from the Boston headquarters of the Egyptian Exploration fund. Prof. Bernard F. Grenfell and Prof. Arthur S. Hunt are engaged in the work of translating. Two of the fragments translated read as follows:
"Jesus saith, Except ye fast to the world ye shall in no wise find the kingdom of God, and except ye keep the Sabbath ye shall not see the Father."
"Jesus saith, I stood in the midst of the world, and in the flesh was I seen of them, and I found all men drunken, and none found I athirst among them, and My soul grieveth over the sons of men, because they are blind in their hearts."
Biblical scholars, however, will be slow to receive without the very best of evidence.
