What black man wrote a book or books in the New Testament?

Paul, a Jew, must have been brown in colour, like today's Palestinians and Sephardic Jews. Apart from Paul, we do not really know who wrote any of the books of the New Testament and can therefore only speculate as to their ethnicities. Even conservative theologians attribute the New Testament books to a mixture of Jews and Greeks, none of whom would have been black-skinned.

How many times does John mention himself by name in the Gospels?

The Gospel now known as John's Gospel does not mention the disciple John, but does mention "the sons of Zebedee", a reference that would include the disciple John, in verse 21:2. The Gospel also mentions a 'disciple whom Jesus loved', whom the second-century Church Fathers decided was also a reference to the disciple John. The New Testament were originally written anonymously, so we do not really know who wrote John's Gospel or whether it had anything to do with John at all. When the Church Fathers were attempting to establish who probably wrote each of the gospels, they felt that the reference to the 'disciple whom Jesus loved' was modesty on the part of the author, and that this was the author himself. Therefore, they said, the author was John.

John wrote what books in the Bible?

A:The Gospel of John and the three Epistles of John are traditionally attributed to the apostle John, with the Revelation of John also commonly attributed to him. Like all the New Testament gospels, John's Gospel was originally anonymous and was only attributed to the apostle John later in the second century. The Church Fathers noticed that the author never mention John and the 'disciple whom Jesus loved' together, so they decided that this disciple must be John. They then decided that the author was the disciple whom Jesus loved and that he did not say so out of modesty. Thus began the tradition that John actually wrote the Gospel. However, scholars say that the Gospel could not have been written by an eyewitness to the events portrayed. In fact, John's Gospel is loosely based on Luke and, to a lesser extent, Mark. The Johannine epistles bear a family resemblance to this Gospel, so the next decision was to attribute them to the same author. Finally, Revelation is signed by a person called John and, although there was considerable dispute about its authenticity, this was also attributed to the disciple John.Modern scholars say that John the apostle wrote none of the books in the Bible.
