∙ 8y agoAlthough the author or authors are unknown, 1 John does appear to have come out of the same Christian community as the gospel now known as St John's Gospel. Many scholars say that it makes more sense if understood as written in a period following the appearance of the Gospel, at least after the initial edition and before redaction. There is strong evidence that John's Gospel was written early in the second century, so 1 John was also written in the second century, but somewhat later.

List the 14 books that Paul wrote This is the question that the teacher gave you There are 14 letters pawl wrote Beginning with the letter to the Romans list all 14 books Thanks?
The thirteen epistles that are almost certainly written by Paul, in order, are: Epistle to the Romans First Epistle to the Corinthians Second Epistle to the Corinthians Epistle to the Galatians Epistle to the Ephesians Epistle to the Philippians Epistle to the Colossians First Epistle to the Thessalonians Second Epistle to the Thessalonians First Epistle to Timothy Second Epistle to Timothy Epistle to Titus Epistle to Philemon although some theologians doubt that some letters (eg Ephesians) are written by him as the style of writing is different from the others. The fourteenth letter, the Epistle to the Hebrews - is unlikely to have been written by Paul. He doesn't claim to have written it nor is the style of writing his. Pauline authorship is rejected by modern scholarship and even in the early church its authorship was debated.

The First Epistle to the Corinthians and the Second Epistle to the Corinthians were written by the apostle Paul. The First Epistle of Peter and the Second Epistle of Peter are believed to have been written in Peter's name by anonymous authors, with the second book clearly a second-century work. Mark's Gospel was originally anonymous, but was attributed to Mark early in the second century. This attribution is not accepted by modern scholars. The Book of Hebrews has been attributed to Paul, but even the early Church Fathers realised that it was not an epistle he would have written. It remains anonymous. The Book of Revelation is signed by a person called John. The early Church Fathers disputed who this 'John' really was, and finally decided to include it in case the author was the apostle John. Modern scholars refer to its author simply as 'John of Patmos'.
