...The first canonical gospel written is thought by most scholars to be Mark (c 65-70), which was according to the majority used as a source for the gospels of Matthew and Luke.Harris, Stephen L., Understanding the Bible. Palo Alto: Mayfield. 1985. In modern source criticism, Matthew and Luke are generally thought to have used a common source, the Q document,Harris, Stephen L., Understanding the Bible. Palo Alto: Mayfield. 1985. These first three gospels are called the synoptic gospels because they share similar incidents, teachings, and even much language. The last gospel, the Gospel of John, presents a very different picture of Jesus and his ministry from the synoptics. In differentiating history from invention, historians interpret the gospel accounts skeptically.Sanders, E. P. The historical figure of Jesus. Penguin, 1993. The synoptic evangelists demonstrated reserve in altering or inventing stories about Jesus, and historians regard the synoptic gospels as including significant amounts of historically reliable information about Jesus. Scholars maintain that the gospels and all the books of the New Testament were written in Greek, see also Greek primacy. Read full entry

“Gospel of the Kingdom of God” MARK 1:14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Gospel of The Kingdom of God From the above Verse, it is clear that Christ, Jesus-The Son of Mary preached the Gospel of The Kingdom of God. This Gospel (The Good News) actually contained the Words of God because of course, it was the Gospel of The Kingdom of God which was preached ONLY by Jesus. There is not even anything as the Gospel of Jesus as noted by Mark 1:1. The words of the Gospel which Jesus (pbuh) preached, were not his words as he says: JOHN 14:24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me. Matthew and John were actually the disciples of Jesus (pbuh). But did they really write these Gospels by themselves. Do we have Gospels “BY” Matthew and John? From an account in the Gospel of Matthew, we can clearly see that this Gospel is not written by Matthew himself: MATTHEW 9:9 And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him. If Matthew would have been the author of this Gospel, he surely would have written that “.. and he saith unto “ME”… and “I” arose and followed him.” Luke and Mark were not even the disciples of Jesus. Luke was a physician and a companion of St Paul and Mark was an interpreter who probably worked with St Peter in Rome. The Gospels also differ from each other a lot: Was Joseph the Son of Jacob (MATTHEW 1:16) or was he the Son of Heli (LUKE 3:23)? Why isn’t the ascension of Jesus (pbuh) to heaven mentioned in Matthew and John? These Gospels which were written down 100 Years after Jesus (pbuh) ascension, circulated anonymously, no names were attached to them until almost 200 and the Christian theologians who came up with the idea of having a New Testament was condemned as heretic. Do we have that True Gospel which Jesus Christ (pbuh) Preached in Hebrew or Aramaic? Did Jesus (pbuh) asked Matthew, Mark, Luke and John to write these Gospels? How can Christians rely on the accounts in these Gospels which are the basic Pillars of their Faith? |

They are all ancient texts of how different people chose to believe, live their lives and share in the word of the Lord. We now call these religions. I believe they are all true according to the people in those times. The most important of all these is that we "believe". :D |
