The synoptic Gospels did not really define Jesus as God, but portrayed him as human. The first Gospel written, the Gospel According to St Mark, has Jesus say "Why call me good. There is none good but God." (10:18). Matthew and Luke have Jesus born of the Holy Ghost, but still not truly divine.The Gospel According to St John opens by clearly stating that in the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He made it clear that, to him, Jesus was the Word and, therefore, Jesus existed from the beginning and was God. John's Gospel, written in Greek, also has Jesus saying 'I am' in such a context that, in Greek, he was telling his audience that he was God.The early Church Fathers were unenthusiastic about John's Gospel. It was too different to the synoptic Gospels and had overtones of Gnosticism, at the time a separate branch of Christianity. However, Irenaeus supported its clear statement of Jesus as divine, and insisted that there should be four gospels.
