The Lost Gospel Q

The Original Sayings of Jesus

Discover the remarkable teachings of one of the most profound lost Gospels of the Bible, The Lost Gospel Q, with renowned authors Marcus Borg and Thomas Moore.

The image of the historical Jesus takes form in the words of the Gospel Q. The Lost Gospel Q represents the very first Gospel, older than the traditional Gospels and written by Jesus' contemporaries. It preserves Jesus' original words—the Sermon on the Mount, Beatitudes, the Lord's Prayer, parables, and his counsel for a compassionate life. The original of the Gospel Q was lost for 2,000 years, but for the past 170 years historians and theologians have been digging through the many layers of the New Testament to uncover one of the most remarkable lost Gospels of the Bible.

Unique translation

Excellent resource for the Q-Source sayings, and the translation offered unexpected insights even in sayings we’re all familiar with— like the Lord’s Prayer (a prayer which originated from John the baptizer btw according to Jesus and his disciples’ own words.

Nothing new

It’s like listening to the dumb down version of the NKJ Bible edition. If you know anything about NKJ and whom he was, you wouldn’t read it.
