What 5 books did the apostle John write in the Bible?

The gospel of JOHN 1 John, 2 John, 3 John Revelation


Did John the apostle write both the Gospel of John and Revelation?

A:The consensus of biblical scholars is that the apostle John wrote neither the Gospel that now bears his name, nor Revelation. In any case, they say it is clear that the two books had completely different authors and now commonly use the name John of Patmos as the author of Revelation, to distinguish the two. At some point after the Church Fathers decided that the Gospel was probably written by the apostle John, they associated Revelation with him solely because its author also used the same name. Others, including even Origen and Eusebius doubted the authenticity of Revelation.


Did Judas Iscariot write anything and were his writings in the Bible?

A Gospel of Judas Iscariot appears to have been in use among the Cainites, an early Gnostic sect. The Gospel was also mentioned by Irenaeus. However, it should be remembered that all the gospels, even those now in the Bible, were not really written by the disciples to whom they were attributed - so Judas Iscariot did not really write anything. One branch of Christianity came to dominate and was the branch that selected the gospels that it would include in its Bible. With the possible exception of John's Gospel, it did not include any Gnostic gospels.


Where did Paul write the book of Revelation?

The apostle Paul did not write the book of the Revelation.The apostle John, one of the original 12 disciples, wrote this book while exiled on the Isle of Patmos.AnswerThe island of Patmos is very close to the church of Ephesus which John pastored and to which he delivered Revelation after he wrote it. CLARIFICATION: there is no evidence that the apostle John wrote the Gospel of John. In fact there is plenty of evidence that ALL four Gospels of the Bible, Mathew, Mark, Luke and John were written by people not connected with the original 12 and who had never met Jesus.


Did Matthew write in the Bible?

A:Matthew, one of the twelve disciples, was credited in the second century with writing the gospel that now bears his name but was originally anonymous. However, modern scholars say that the gospel could not have been written by an eyewitness to the events described. One of the reasons for this is that it has been demonstrated by a parallel reading in the original Greek language that Matthew's Gospel was substantially based on that of Mark. An eyewitness would never have copied another account so closely. This means that Matthew did not write the gospel or any other book in the Bible.
