They are called the gospels because Jesus life and death is good news for those who believe.
The Greek word euangelion is translated to gospel. Originally it meant a reward for good tidings; later, the idea of reward was dropped, and the word stood for "the good news" itself.
The Eng. word "gospel," i.e. "good message," is the equivalent of euangelion (Eng., "evangel").
In the NT it refers to the "good tidings" of the kingdom of God and of salvation through Christ, to be received by faith. It is applied to Jesus' life because it is on the basis of His atoning death, His burial, resurrection, and ascension, e.g., Acts 15:7; Acts 20:24; 1Pe 4:17. that salvation (the good news) is accomplished.
