Anastasis
Dr. John Thomas, the founder of the Christadelphian movement, survived a severe sea storm during his emigration to America. In his prayers during the storm, he promised that should he survive, he'll dedicate the rest of his life to learning the Bible and trying to understand the true message of the scriptures. In doing so, he questioned the orthodox beliefs and came to the founding of a new trend in Christianity. He expressed his new ideas in the series of 18 books, one of which is Anastasis.

The Life of John Thomas
Excerpt from The Life of John Thomas: Surgeon of the Earl of Oxford East Indiaman, and First Baptist Missionary to Bengal For many years I have felt deep interest in the character and history of Mr. Thomas. The earliest records of the Baptist Mission contain so much, and yet so little, about him, - there is so much to awaken, and then to disappoint, curiosity, in the particulars there given, - that a strong desire arose in my mind to search out and to arrange in a. Consecutive narrative all that could be ascertained regard ing him. This desire induced me to put together the substance of all the notices of Mr. Thomas which I could discover in the first volumes of the Periodical Accounts and i...
John and Thomas-- Gospels in Conflict?
The hypothesis that the Fourth Gospel is a theological response to the Gospel of Thomas is a recent development in the study of the New Testament and early Christianity. Assuming an early date for the Gospel of Thomas, the proponents of this hypothesis argue that the supposed polemical presentation of Thomas in the Fourth Gospel is evidence of a conflict between the early communities associated respectively with John and Thomas. However, a detailed narrative study reveals that the Fourth Gospel portrays a host of characters--disciples and non-disciples--in an equally unflattering light where an understanding of Jesus's origins, message, and mission are concerned. The present study attempts to demonstrate that the Fourth Gospel's presentation of Thomas is part and parcel of its treatment of uncomprehending characters. If this thesis is correct, it poses a significant challenge to the assumption that the Fourth Gospel contains a polemic against Thomas, or that it was written in response to the Gospel of Thomas or the community associated with Thomas.
The Brief and Brilliant Life of John Thomas Geary

Geary went from a life of privilege and ease in Victorian England to a rough-and-tumble experience settling the unexplored Utah Territory. This biography carefully documents Geary's life as he learns difficult lessons and overcomes many obstacles. "John Thomas Geary stood at the crossroads, looking toward the mountains. The landscape couldn't be more different than his British birthplace and he paused to find a connection to this bleak view. Utah Territory in the dead of winter did not feel welcoming. But he had made his choice. It took John and h...
