(42 CE approx.) Theudas, meaning "gift from God" declared himself a prophet and was executed while attempting to "part the Jordan" for his followers. Years later Valentinus laid claim to some of his teaching. (Ehrman, "Lost Christianities, pg 193, says Theudas was a disciple of Paul, this may not be true.. )Josephus, Jewish Antiquities 20.97-98 ) Theudas is mentioned in the Second "Apocalypse of James". http://www.livius.org/men-mh/messiah/messianic_claimants08.html
