Gospel of Barnabas
Chapter 136
When he shall go there all the devils shall shriek, and seek to hide themselves beneath the burning embers, saying one to another: "Fly, fly, for here comes Muhammad ;our enemy!" Hearing which, Satan shall smite himself upon the face with both his hands, and screaming shall say: "You are more noble than I, in my despite, and this is unjustly done!" As for the faithful, who are in seventy-two grades, those of the two last grades, who shall have had the faith without good works, the one being sad at good works, and the other delighting in evil, they shall abide in hell seventy thousand years.

i want to know more information about this hiding Gospel please. and why they hide it?

Answer 1

Its not in the Bible because it is not inspired Scripture. By the time the New Testament was canonized in the 4th century, there were scores of gospels and epistles floating around. The Church had to discern which were authentic and which were not

That brings us to the thorny issue of "authority" which is a major difference between protestants and Catholics. As a Catholic, I say the Holy Spirit holds an ecumanical Council presided over by the successor of Peter "infallible". That is why I believe the books of the New Testament, chosen at the council of Rome under Pope Damusus are correct. Protestants don't believe that, of course. How they believe that the Church chose the correct books is something I don't understand.

Answer 2

Barnabus was the Son of Nabus or Nablus these days,
who was a condemned death-row criminal and murderer who the Pharisee commanded masses chose to be released instead of the Christ in their joy-ride, but which would have hurt many Jewish families over time to the amusement of the Romans.

His Gospel is not included as it is an Islamic forgery from the 6th century or later and even the Roman Catholics had got round to selecting a bible by then!

Answer 3

The Gospel of Barnabas is not an authentic Gospel of Jesus. The author does not understand the language, history or geography of the 1st century A.D., and there is no ancient evidence for the book. The internal evidence of the book suggests it was written in the 14th century and there are Muslim scholars who agree with this dating. The book is a rewrite of the Biblical Gospel most likely by a Muslim who wanted to show that Jesus taught Islam and predicted the coming of Muhammad. This type of rewriting has been done elsewhere by Muslims in the Gospel According to Islam. This type of behaviour is disgraceful, and it is disgraceful for Muslims to continue to publish, promote and distribute this false Scripture

Answer 4

Barnabas replaced into between the early followers of Christ interior the city of Antioch. you should comprehend the technique of the cannonization of the memories of the bible. earlier the large chop up of the Catholic and Orthodox church homes - the christian church existed as one church. This replaced into the 1st 1000 years of Christianity. earlier the time of writing, teachings have been surpassed on via be attentive to mouth. the technique replaced into as such. each priest sat with an older mentor priest who reiterated teachings. That reiteration might nicely be traced returned to an actual apostle. The Orthodox and Catholic Church have the Holy Orders sacrament. That sacrament replaced into gained via a clergyman who replaced into instant via a clergyman and in case you hint the reiteration returned - you will discover it finally ends up at an apostle. That replaced into how they exceeded the techniques down earlier at last putting it in some form of writing. Now to respond to why that gospel replaced into no longer chosen to affix the cannonized text cloth is the least complicated. while reviewed via an assemblage of clergymen in year 3 hundred and something (what the Church calls a Council), they unanimously got here upon that that distinctive writing contained errors. How did they be attentive to it had errors? nicely from their mixed coaching that have been informed to them for 3 hundred years. Even the Protestant church homes which protested against the Catholic Church (understanding that the Catholic and Orthodox desperate which scripture shaped the bible) count upon that Council's mixed determination in Cannonization of the incredibly some writings into what we call the Bible. they have confidence those teachings to be inerrant - without errors. The bible did no longer fall from the sky. that's a grouping of scriptures that have been qualified via "human beings interior the be attentive to" as authentic. that's what it boils right down to. wish this permits.

Answer 5

The gospel of Barnabas says the Barnabas was commanded by Jesus to write about his life so people know the truth. It talks about how Jesus says to Barnabas he has decieved people into thinking he is the son of man when really he is just a servant of God & Muhammed is the real Messiah.

Answer 6

It's an obvious Medieval forgery and has no business being considered as Scripture.

Really, do some study in a real university rather than surfing the Internet. You'll be better for it.

[Edit] LOL at the answer above mine. No, dear one...that was Barabbas!! Not "Barnabas".

Answer 7

When muslims are the main advocates for books being added to the Bible (i.e. the book of Thomas) it just validates the decision to keep them out.

Answer 8

There is quite a bit of literature on the Gnostic Gospels...

I think we should read all scripture as everything Jesus says is important to us..

Answer 9

There is no Gospel of Barnabas. Barnabas was the criminal that was set free instead of Jesus. Muhammad is nothing to do with Christianity.

Answer 10

Dummy, that's NOT the Muhammed of Islam, any more than my gardener Jesus is the Christ!
