The Gospel of Thomas is different from the Gospels of Mark and John in several ways. Just a couple:
1) Thomas in not in The Bible. Mark and John are.
2) Mark and John were accepted by the early Church. Thomas wasn't.
3) Mark and John are in some sense chronological histories of Jesus' ministry. Thomas is a sayings gospel.
A:The 'lost gospels' are those non-canonical gospels such as the Gospel According to the Hebrews, the Gospel of Peter, the Gospel of Philip, Gospel of Thomas, Infancy Gospel of Thomas and many others. It should be born in mind that these attributions are no more reliable than are the attributions of the canonical gospels to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. For scholars, the most important of the non-canonical gospels are the Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Peter. A search of the internet will access English translation of some of these texts, and the are also available (with difficulty) in printed form.
There are non-canonical gospels (those outside the New Testament) that deal with Thomas, most particularly the Gospel According to St. Thomas. Within the New Testament, the source accepted by modern Christians as most reliable, John's Gospel mentions Thomas more than any of the other gospels. John created the tradition of Thomas as doubting, as well as recording that Thomas, alone among the disciples, missed out on Jesus breathing the Holy Spirit into him. Given that the anti-Thomas current in John's Gospel is missing from the other gospels, it is open to the reader to question John's account.
Those are 2 different Gospels, the book of Mark and the books of John 1 and John 2.
They are the Gospel of Matthew,Gospel of Mark,Gospel of Luke,and the Gospel of John.

No, there are only 4 gospels: Gospel of Matthew Gospel of Mark Gospel of Luke Gospel of John
John H. Sieber has written: 'A redactional analysis of the synoptic gospels with regard to the question of the sources of the gospel according to Thomas'
The gospel of John is not part of the Synoptic Gospels.The gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke are referred to as the Synoptic Gospels.
No John does not have it . It is in the gospels of Matthew and Luke only.
The gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke are the synoptic gospels, as theya re similar to an parallel to each other. The gospel of John is different.
All of the gospels mention Thomas: Matthew 10:3 Mark 3:18 Luke 6:15 John 11:16 (which reveals that Thomas is also known as Didymus)
The Gospel of John is often described as the poetic reflective Gospel due to its unique literary style and focus on spiritual themes. It differs from the other Gospels in its emphasis on the divinity of Jesus and its use of symbolic language to convey deeper theological truths.
