Answer #1:
Luke 19:10 - for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.
Jesus came into the world for a specific purpose; to reveal God's plan for the reconciliation of mankind and offer Himself as the atoning sacrifice. His mission would not have been served had He spent His time writing a book about Himself; others could (and did) do just that. Answer #2:
The true gospel IS the gospel of Jesus Christ. As far as anyone knows, Jesus was not a writer. He was someone who spoke and demonstrated, but never wrote. And the "gospels" we have in The Bible are more accurately known as "gospel accounts" -- such as "The Gospel [of Jesus Christ] According To Matthew (or Mark, or Luke, or John)." So strictly speaking, there is not a Gospel of Matthew, or a Gospel of John -- it's just easier to say "Matthew's Gospel" or "John's Gospel." But really, it's the Gospel of Jesus that each one of those Apostles wrote about.

Is ''gospel'' supposed to be capitalized?
Gospel should be capitalized when used as a specific reference to any or all of the four Gospels, for example, the four Gospels, the Holy Gospel, the Gospel of Matthew, and in titles of documents. Gospel should be capitalized when beginning a sentence. Gospel should be lowercase when used as a general term meaning "good news" or "story", for example, "the gospel as presented in the New Testament," "Paul took the gospel to the Romans"; of Jesus Christ, when referring to the law and the gospels; when referring to the law and the gospels; when referring to the third reading in the service.
What is the genre called gospel?
A:There are at least two distinct gospel genres, but both are concerned with the life of Jesus. As we find in Paul's epistles, the term 'gospel' originally denoted apostolic preaching about Jesus, but later it came to refer to the literary works that we now know as gospels. Unfortunately most attempts to define a gospel genre end up excluding some gospels and therefore really only define a sub-genre of gospel. Probably the earliest gospels to be written were the Gospel of Thomas and the hypothetical 'Q' Gospel (or 'Q' Document). These belong to the genre known as Sayings Gospels, as they contain sayings only, with no narrative detail. There are other sayings gospels from the second century and beyond. They are 'gospels' because they are exclusively about Jesus.The four New Testament gospels were the first of another genre known as Narrative Gospels, because they contain both sayings and narrative about the life, mission and crucifixion of Jesus. There are other narrative gospels from the second century and beyond, the most important of which is arguably the Gospel of Peter. They are all 'gospels' because they are exclusively about Jesus.Perhaps the one definition of a gospel genre that is inclusive of all gospels is that a gospel is an early Christian book from which the story of Jesus was preached.

What is the sixth gospel?
AnswerApart from the four gospels that were finally accepted into the New Testament canon, there have been many gospels about Jesus. The Gospel of Thomas is often considered to be the 'fifth' gospel because there was strong early support for its inclusion. There are several other gospels from the second century that could have been included and could therefore be called the 'sixth' gospel, had Ireneus not insisted that there must be exactly four gospels.
