The first four books of The Bible are called the gospels and as far as I know they have always been called the gospels.

The word gospel comes from a Greek word meaning good news / good message. The first four books of the Bible tell about the life of Christ and this is good news because through His life, death and resurrection comes the gift of salvation.
