The gospel of Mark is the shortest gospel.AnswerThe first and shortest gospel in the New Testament is called Mark's Gospel, as it was attributed to the apostle Mark by Papias in the second century. Bibical scholars say there is no good reason to accept this attribution, so we do not know who really wrote this gospel.
I John along with II and III John were wrote by the Apostle John Before he wrote the booke of Revelations, which was penned around 90 a.d. The book of Revelations was the last book of the Bible to be written, fittingly so, as it also the book concerning the end of Gods dealing with man and his sin.
The Gospel of John, including chapter 3, is traditionally attributed to the Apostle John, a disciple of Jesus. However, authorship of the Gospel is debated among scholars.
If you are speaking of Luke who wrote the "Gospel according to Luke" the answer is no. Luke was a physician (Colossians 4:14).
No. According to many, the Gospel of John was written by the Apostle John.
John is known as the apostle or disciple of love.He wrote the gospel that bears his name.
No. The book known as John's Gospel was originally anonymous, so we will never really know who wrote it, but certainly the author was not John the Baptist. Late in the second century, the fourth gospel was attributed to the apostle John.
St. Matthew wrote the Gospel that is attributed to him. Acts was written by St. Luke.
Although there were many gospels written afterwards, the last gospel in the New Testament is known as John's Gospel and is traditionally attributed to the apostle John.The fourth gospel was originally anonymous and it was only later in the second century, when the Church Fathers were attempting to establish who probably wrote each of the gospels, that this attribution came about. However, biblical scholars say that the Gospel could not have been written by an eyewitness to the events described, which eliminates John as a potential author. We do not know who wrote the last gospel.
A:Tradition says that the apostle John wrote the fourth gospel, and few Christians are willing to question tradition, particularly when that tradition seems to be supported by Church teachings. To question doctrine could be the start of a path towards questioning Christianity itself. The tradition that the apostle John wrote this Gospel begins with the Church Fathers late in the second century. They noticed that the Gospel never mentioned the apostle John by name, so assumed the "disciple whom Jesus loved" must have been John. They then decided that the author must have been one of the disciples who chose not to mention his own role out of modesty. This meant that the author was the "disciple whom Jesus loved" and must therefore have been John. This was elementary, amateur psychology but the Church Fathers knew of no better candidate to be the author of the fourth gospel, now known as John's Gospel.
Most of the books of the New Testament were written by apostles or other disciples of Jesus Christ. Matthew the apostle wrote a gospel. John the apostle wrote a gospel, three epistles and Revelation. Peter the apostle wrote two epistles, although recent scholarship has indicated that "2 Peter" was written many decades after his death by a follower. James and Jude each wrote an epistle, but they are probably not the two apostles by those names but two others known as brothers of the Lord. Mark, a follower of Peter, wrote a gospel. Luke, a follower of Paul, wrote a gospel and the Acts of the Apostles. Paul, an apostle but not one of the twelve who followed Jesus Christ during his public life, wrote 13 epistles. The author of the Epistle to the Hebrews is unknown.

A:There is nothing in any Bible source that mentions the author of John's Gospel being a priest. In fact, the Bible does not even tell us who actually wrote this gospel, because the original text was anonymous. It was only later in the second century, when the Church Fathers were trying to establish who, in their opinions, wrote the four gospels, that it was decided to attribute the fourth gospel to the apostle John. Even if John had been the author, there is nothing in scripture to suggest that he was a priest.

We do not know the real name of the author of Mark's Gospel, but because the second-century Church Fathers attributed the Gospel to the apostle Mark, we continue to refer to the author as Mark the evangelist.
If you are speaking of Luke who wrote the "Gospel according to Luke" the answer is no. Luke was a physician (Colossians 4:14).
