  3. What are the Gospels? • Which books are called the Gospels? Matthew, Mark, Luke and John are collectively called the Gospels. • What does the word “gospel” mean? The word “gospel” comes from an Old English word meaning “good news”. The Gospel is the good news of Jesus’ defeat of death so that we might have hope of eternal life if we accept His grace through faith.

  4. The Gospels • Written accounts of Jesus’ life inspired by the Holy Spirit • Written 30-70 years after Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection • Synoptic Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke They have much in common and differ significantly from the Gospel of John. Each Gospel presents a different aspect of Jesus. Matthew presents Him as Israel's King; Mark as God's Servant; Luke as God's Ideal Man. John presents Him as God himself.

Satan (standing on the highest point of a temple): “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down.” Jesus: “Do not put the Lord your God to the test”. Satan: “All this I will give you, if you will bow down and worship me.” Jesus: “Away from me, Satan! Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only”.
