Before we get to the four gospels, I wanted to talk about what a gospel is. The meaning of the word gospel means good news. This word comes from the Greek word ευαγγέλιο. The Greek language is what the News Testament is written in. From what I researched the exact language was the Koine Language Which was the common language of the people This good news that the gospels talk about is the good news about Jesus. The beginning of the [facts regarding the] good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Mark 1:1. The gospel [that is, the good news regarding the way of salvation] must first be preached to all the [Gentile] nations. Mark 13:10. Both verses talk about good news and that good news is Jesus Christ. Who doesn't want good news right?
The whole four books that make up the gospels are for the good news to be preached to all people. The gospel [that is, the good news regarding the way of salvation] must first be preached to all the [Gentile] nations. Mark 13:10. This good news called the gospel was not written to keep it a secret or to keep it in a closet but to share with the world and it is about Jesus and what He did and what He was about. in the bible I am using which is the Amplified Bible it is said 80 times in the New Testament alone. So, that gets us to look and listen up to what is being said. This isn't me saying this but it's the truth. When you walk into a place and see sign after sign saying don't eat food in here you are going to look up and listen to what the sign says right? Same with when you see the gospel so many times in the Bible, in total in AMP it said 102 and it talks about various things, but it is all around this good news and that good news is Jesus Christ. The Bible was written not to glorify the people who are in the Bible or to tell them fleshly things but to tell of the good news and that good news is Jesus Christ.
Tomorrow we will talk about the 4 major people that make up the gospels, who they were and what they did.
All Bible taken from the AMP
Have a Blessed day!!!!!
