While this book is mainly a collection of the epistles, which can be found in any New Testament, it is worth purchasing for Spong's lengthy introduction in which he presents a radical but nevertheless fascinating theory concerning the first published theologian of the Christian church. Even though Spong's theory concerning the Apostle Paul cannot be proved or disproved based on New Testament evidence alone, it can also not be dismissed out of hand based on that very same evidence.
Makes Paul newly relevant!
