4 Gospels

A gospel is an account that describes the life of Jesus of Nazareth.
The word gospel derives from the Old English gōd-spell, meaning "good news" or "glad tidings".

3 Synoptic Gospels

"Synoptic" means here that they can be "seen" or "read together," indicating the many parallels that exist among the three.
It is widely believed that the three synoptic gospels derive from a common source or set of sources, and that they directly or indirectly borrowed from or were influenced by each other.
The fourth gospel, the Gospel of John, presents a very different picture of Jesus and his ministry from the synoptics.

MARK
Theme: The Suffering Servant
Date written: A.D. 60
Author: John Mark
Setting: Rome
![Page 16: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Mark - Introduction
Mark (his Roman Name) and John (his Jewish name) was not an eyewitness of the life of Jesus. But he is a close companion of the apostle Peter, who passed on the details of his association with Jesus to John Mark. Whereas Matthew wrote the gospel to a Jewish audience, Mark seems to target Roman believers.
![Page 17: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Mark – Introduction Continues...
Mark uses Latin, the Language of the Romans, for certain expressions as he writes his Gospel in Greek. Mark describes time according to the Roman system, carefully explains Jewish customs and omits the traditional Jewish genealogies as found in Matthew.
![Page 18: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Mark – Introduction Continues...
Mark presents Jesus as the suffering servant. He focuses more on Jesus’ deeds than His teachings. He demonstrates the humanity of Christ and describes His human emotions, His limitations as a human, ultimately His physical death.
![Page 19: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Theme of the Book
The message of Mark’s gospel is captured in a single verse: “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many” (10:45). Chapter by chapter, the book unfolds the dual focus of Christ’s life: Service and Sacrifice.
![Page 20: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Luke – Introduction
Luke wanted to create an accurate, chronological, and comprehensive account of the unique life of Jesus the Christ to strengthen the faith of Gentile believers and stimulate saving faith among nonbelievers.
![Page 23: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Luke – Introduction Continues...
It is evident from the opening lines of this Gospel that it is addressed to a man named Theophilus. Its purpose is to give an accurate historical account of the unique life of Jesus. Luke, a doctor and the only Gentile (non-jew) author of the New Testament books, is writing to strengthen the faith of Gentiles, especially Greek believers.
![Page 24: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Luke – Introduction Continues...
He also desires to stimulate unbelieving Greeks to consider the claims that Jesus Christ is the perfect Man—the Son of Man—who came in sacrificial service to seek and to save sinful men.
![Page 25: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Luke: Introduction Continues...
The humanity and compassion of Jesus are repeatedly stressed in Luke’s gospel. Luke gives the most complete account of Christ’s ancestry, birth, and development. He is the ideal Son of Man who identified with the sorrow and plight of sinful men in order to carry our sorrows and offer us the priceless gift of salvation. Jesus alone fulfills the greek ideal of human perfection.

John - Introduction
50 years since John witnessed the earthly life of Jesus
The Christian faith has flourished and spread throughout the known world.
But with growth has come great persecution by the Roman government.
All Christ’s apostles have died or been martyred except for John.
![Page 30: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
John – Introduction
Now an old man, John provides a supplement to what has already been written about Jesus in the first three gospel accounts.
His account of Jesus presents the most powerful and direct case for the deity and humanity of the incarnate Son of God.
![Page 31: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
John – Introduction
John draws mainly upon events and discourses not found in the other gospels to prove to his readers that Jesus is God in the flesh, the eternal Word come to earth, born to die as God’s sacrifice for human sin.
![Page 32: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Purpose of Book of John
John gives a precise statement of his purpose in writing: “These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name” (John 20:31).
In fact, he uses the term “believe” about 100 times to get the message across.
![Page 33: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Theme of the Gospel of John
The predominant theme of this gospel is the dual response of faith and unbelief in the person of Jesus Christ. Those who place their faith in the Son of God have eternal life, but those who reject Him are under the condemnation of God (3:36; 5:24-29; 10:27-29)– this is the basic issue.
![Page 34: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
John – Introduction
John’s gospel is topical, not primarily chronological, and it revolves around seven miracles and seven “I am” statement of Christ.
![Page 35: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Author – (John)Jesus nicknamed John and his brother James, “Sons of Thunder” (Mark 3:17). Their father was a zebedee, and their mother, Salome, served Jesus in Galilee and was present at His crucifixion (see Mark 15:40-41).
He was among the 12 men who were selected to be apostles (Luke 6:12-16).
“Pillar of the Church” – Gal 2:9.
He went to Ephesus and later exiled by Romans for a time to the island of Patmos (Rev. 1:9).

Acts - Introduction
Acts is Luke’s account of the growth of the early Church. As a sequel to his account of the life of Jesus returned to heaven. He once again addresses his writing to a Greek named Theophilus.
![Page 41: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

In spite of severe opposition and persecution, the fearless church experiences explosive growth.
Acts 1:8 provides an outline for the following 30 year record of the growth of the church, which begins in Jerusalem, spreads to Samaria, extends to the world.
![Page 42: Introduction to the New Testament 1 27 January 2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551b9394550346942b8b517e/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Acts – Introduction
Acts is the historical link between the Gospels and the Epistles. Because of Luke’s strong emphasis on the ministry of the Holy Spirit, the book should really be regards as the Acts of the Spirit of Christ working in through the apostles. As a missionary himself, Luke’s interest in the progressive spread of the gospel is obviously reflected in this apostolic history.

The Rise of GnosticismFrom the Greek word gnosis (“knowledge”).
It would arise in the 2nd century, but its seeds were already evident.
The physical is bad; the spirit is good.
Views of Jesus.Docetism: Christ only seemed to be human.Cerenthianism: The Divine Christ entered
Jesus at His baptism and departed prior to His death.
Salvation through secret knowledge.
