I was watching a old interview of Glenn Danzig in his prime showing off his book collection, where he read from a book containing the lost gospels that where omitted from the bible.
The reading was of Jesus as a child turning another child into stone after he was pushed down.
I was curious if anyone has seen this reading before, or is familiar with it.

It’s in a collection of ancient writings called the Gospel of Thomas. Jesus also supposedly struck a man blind for saying nasty things about something Joseph made, pushed a friend off a house and killed him and then resurrected him, and resurrected a dead bird when it’s dying made him cry. It was said he was malevolent and “learning how to use his powers” so you can see why this was considered totally crazy writings and not included in the canon.

LOL…I can see why Glenn Danzig would be fascinated with it, then. It sounds like something he would have written.

(EDIT: Also, this refers to the Infancy Gospel of Thomas, which is even more zany and out to lunch than the also non-canonical Gospel of Thomas.)

That actually makes perfect sense, if you think about how hard it is emotionally just growing up for most people. I would imagine it would be even more trouble some at times if you had God powers , or should I say God’s powers,
Cheers! 👍

It might make sense for a being that was only human, but since Jesus was God and man, I think he probably had a grip on things.

Besides, at least two of the thing listed were horrible sins, it is completely antithetical to what we believe of Jesus.
