The Forgotten Gospels and Epistles of the Original New Testament are a number of writings by early Christians that give accounts of Jesus and his teachings, the nature of God, or the teachings of his apostles and of their lives. Some of these writings have been cited as scripture by early Christians but since the fifth century, a widespread consensus has emerged limiting the New Testament to the 27 books of the modern canon. This book presents the complete forbidden gospels and epistles: Mary Protevangelion Infancy Infancy (Young Childhood) Nicodemus Christ and Abgarus Laodiceans Paul and Seneca Acts of Paul and Thecla Clement Barnabas Ephesians Magnesians Trallians Romans Philadelphians Smyrnaeans Polycarp Philippians Hermas—Visions Hermas—Commands Hermas—Similitudes
