Episode 261: Watchfulness: The Core Teaching from Matthew to Thomas

Play Episode Listen Later Oct 5, 2025 27:43

In this reflection, Theodore J. Nottingham explores the striking parallels between Matthew's parable of the Ten Bridesmaids and Saying 21 of the Gospel of Thomas. Both warn of the sudden arrival of the decisive hour and call us to vigilance, preparedness, and the inner work of keeping the lamp of consciousness alight. Saying 21, preserved in the ancient Thomas text, distills this wisdom into a stark image of thieves and harvest—urging us to guard the treasure of the heart and be ready for the moment when all is revealed."Discovering the Gospel of Thomas" by Theodore J. Nottingham is now available in a paperback edition on Amazon.
