The Four Gospels, it is claimed, were written by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, two of them apostles, and two

Question

companions of the apostles of Christ. If this claim be true the other writings of the apostles, the writings of the Apostolic Fathers, and the writings of the early Christian Fathers, ought to contain some evidences of the fact.

Twenty books -- nearly all of the remaining books of the New Testament -- are said to have been written by the three apostles, Peter, John, and Paul, a portion of them after the first three Gospels were written; but it is admitted that they contain no evidence whatever of the existence of these Gospels.
Why so ?

Answer 1

No-one knows who wrote what.

The NT is the propaganda of the early church. It is no coincidence that the word "propaganda" is a term invented by the church.

Answer 2

actually the 4 gospel's weren't written via Matthew, Mark, Luke or John. They have been written over 2 hundred years after Jesus had ascended and the disciples died. They have been written via people who had the thoughts surpassed down and have been stated to have been the debts all the disciples depicted. and actually there have been many different gospels written. those different gospels in no way made it into the bible because of the fact lots of them contradicted the ideals on the time. the 1st Council of Nicaea surpassed off in 325 advert (i think of) and replaced into well-known via the Roman Emporer Constantine to be sure that the non secular leaders on the time to realize a consensus on what regulations the Christians could stick to, and what scriptures could make it into the bible.

Answer 3

Matthew was written in the same general time frame as a lot of Paul's epistles. Mark, Luke, and John were all written around the same time as the last of Paul's letters, or later.

Answer 4

i think about the time or shortly after the four gospels, saul was still convicting christians until god knocked him off his horse and blinded him and renamed him paul,after which paul wroye many books or letters to the churches of that time , most of the later books of the new testement were only letter to churches rather then stories of christ as the 4 gospels written by guys that knew jesus

Answer 5

Your time line is not correct. Please do more research and you will see that the Gospels were written at the time of the ministry of the three (Peter, John and Paul) so they were basing their Gospel on the revelations of the Risen Jesus Christ in the case of Paul. He spent 3 years in Asia under the instruction of the risen Christ.

Galatians 1

1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;) 2 And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia: 3 Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: 5 To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. 6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. 10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. 11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. 12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. 13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it: 14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers. 15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, 16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood: 17 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus. 18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days. 19 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother. 20 Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not. 21 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia; 22 And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ: 23 But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed. 24 And they glorified God in me.

Answer 6

Perhaps they didn't know about them, or perhaps they simply did not talk about them. They didn't have computers, television, or phones you know?

Answer 7
