The Gospel of the Holy Twelve, also known as The Gospel of the Perfect Life, is an alternative gospel text that presents a version of the life of Jesus Christ. This text, believed by some to be an ancient manuscript of early Christianity, focuses on the teachings of Jesus, emphasizing a life of compassion, non-violence, and spiritual purity. It contains unique teachings not found in the canonical gospels, including a detailed account of Jesus' early life and his interactions with his followers. Some readers view it as a more spiritually inclusive and universal interpretation of the teachings of Jesus.
