The name of the four gospels?

Answer 1

The Gospel of Matthew-seems written for the Jews to prove Jesus fulfilled prophecies of coming of the Messiah. Gospel of Mark- seems written for Gentiles to present Jesus as Messiah and Son of God. Gospel of Luke - seems written for Greeks to show Jesus as a universal savior. NOTE: These first 3 are called "SYNOPTICS," meaning "seen with the same eye." They cover the same events. Gospel of John - written around the end of the 1st century A.D. -written for INSTRUCTION of early Christians - presents Jesus as the eternal Word of God who descended form heaven and became man.

Answer 2

The gospels are individually known by the name of the person who wrote them - an 'evangelist' is the word for such a person - so that they are * The Gospel according to Saint Matthew (or, St Matthew's Gospel) * The Gospel according to Saint Mark (or, St Mark's Gospel) * The Gospel according to Saint Luke (or,Luke's Gospel) * The Gospel according to John (or, St John's Gospel) Together, they are known as "The Gospels" - which means "good news". They form part of the New Testament - that part of the Christian bible which deals with the life and death of Jesus and the early days of Christianity.

Answer 3

The Gospel accounts in The Bible are a divinely inspired record the earthly life and ministry of Jesus Christ, the greatest man who ever lived. Copies were widely circulated during early Christian times and were treasured because of their insight into Jesus and the message he came to bring. Today, these Gospel accounts continue to educate and offer insight on Jesus Christ, and motivate people to follow his teachings.

Under inspiration of God, the Gospels were written by four men to record unique accounts giving witness to the fact that Jesus was the Messiah and the message that Jesus gave while on earth. These accounts carry the name of the writer and show their perspective of their experiences with Jesus.

Since Matthew was previously a tax collector, his account was more detailed when discussing money and numbers. Since he appreciated his association with Jesus in spite of the fact that he was a "despised" tax collector, his Gospel emulates the theme of "God's Kingdom" that Jesus preached. Matthew was also more logical and precise in his discussion of Jesus, and more chronological in his approach. Matthew also includes more parables than the other Gospels.

Mark was a disciple of Jesus before his death and a coworker with the Apostles for many years, particularly Peter. It is evident in the style of writing that his eyewitness accounts are gleaned from his time spent with Peter. Additionally, his Gospel was geared more for the Romans than the Jews.

The Gospel of Luke reflects Luke's personality and qualities of kindness and warmth. Since Luke was a physician, his account includes more than 300 medical references. For example, all the Gospels record that when Peter cuts the ear off of a slave of the high priest, only Luke says that he was healed by Jesus. Luke's Gospel records six miracles and more illustrations than the other Gospels.

The Apostle John was well known to be beloved by Jesus. His account was recorded more than 70 years after the death of Jesus. John alone gives insight to Jesus' pre-human existence, and the precious and intimate relationship of Father and Son that Jesus had with Almighty God Jehovah. Much of John's Gospel is not the same information that was covered in the other Gospel Accounts. This may be because of the special relationship that he and Jesus had.

It is evident that the four Gospel writers are not just repeating the same stories.

The May 15, 2000 Watchtower magazine summarized "For millions of sincere followers of Christ, the Gospels have provided the description of the man for whom they have been willing to suffer and die. The Gospels have also provided the basis and inspiration for courage, endurance, faith and hope."
