Introduction
I receive hundreds of channels on my TV. That would be strange if it were not for the fact that the vast majority of them did not occur. I can not tell you how many times I asked my wife why cable companies continue to increase our bill, every year, just so we can see more repeats of repeats?
Some people see the four Gospels of Jesus Christ in the same way - repetition. This is so widespread that offered advanced coursesone with which the original, and what are the repetitions. A closer look shows us that in fact they are not repeated, but the presentation of a different vision of Christ.
The source Q or
Some time around 19 century theologians came up with the theory that Mark was the original source, often referred to as Q in Matthew and Luke have a lot of their material. These experts, Matthew and Luke simply told their version of the theology of Mark. This theorystands on shaky ground because there are too many inconsistencies in this idea, but the average reader has often questioned why four?
The combined a gospel that has never been with the concept of "repetition" of the Gospel of John was. Everyone can say this book is an original run - so to speak.
Just as the four differ?
Let's start with a little 'history if you do not mind. The Gospels were in common language of the Alexandrian greek dialect which was writtenunderstood by everyone in the days of Christ - English is today. The first century of the Gospel of originality.
Among other oddities, the greek was written in all capital letters with no punctuation. Periods, commas came from, etc., many years later, and hopefully in the right place. Cardinal Hugo created the chapters of the Bible that we are so familiar today in the 13 Century. Verses of the Bible in the 16th century by a Parisian typesetter developedunder the name of Robert Stephens.
None of the Gospels record the life of Christ - which is not its purpose. None of them shows details that no direct impact on why he died on a Roman cross and then rose from the dead on the third day have. This is all my heart that each of the Gospels and all other information be given simple sidebars. Most of all the Gospels contain the last days of Christ and his verdict, death, burial and resurrection. There is nothing inthe world more important than a month unique in human history.
Precision
On the question of accuracy, many argue, for example, "How do we know what we read is what the Apostle?" is a valid application. The answer goes all the way until 2:03 century, when Origen of Alexandria; Ishihi, Bishop of Egypt, and Lucian of Antioch, the priests took upon himself the originals with great care, not to copy a noun or verb to lose. The thought ofNo corruption of the text has been disgusting in their minds. However, they were aware that the originals have been extremely valuable. Managed has been a priority in their minds.
Authenticity
Death The Apostle John was still fresh in everyone's mind - as you might think it was rather the star, and I do not mean that vague sense. In the time of John of each original gospel was known, and many copies were distributed through the churches of the world. However, it wasIgnatius of Antioch in 107 AD Theophorus. testified for accuracy. He was a friend of John's life Amato. Ignatius writes in existence today.
Order of writing
The publication of the four Gospels came some time after the apostles had written her letters. Among other things, not all the apostles wrote a letter. The first priority of the Apostles to evangelize, to create and educate the churches around the world.
As in any organization, once the churches wereestablished, there are those who might in this thing called "Christianity" means an area where the powerful, rich and famous has appeared, a number of false leaders and their followers have been observed. To establish their claim to fame - as today - began to teach teachers do not teach the apostles. They said things about Jesus never actually revealed by those who knew him. Later Gnostics arose that, if sued, Ebionites, and the followers of Cerinthus.Different religions now come from the pagan world to Christianity.
It 'appeared to the apostles, who must have a written record of an eyewitness, the Ministry of the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus as directed the mind of every human being, began in his style, in their own words, to write their desired audience. They continue to record what they saw and knew to be true - in death.
Contemporary evidence indicates that the Gospel of Matthew was the firstwritten. Next Mark wrote his Gospel, followed later by the Greeks and finally by Luke John Amato.
There are only four Gospels accepted. Some thought that seem to contradict each other, while recording on the same story. Far. You must understand that it is advanced without contradictions, only different audiences and different issues.
When I use the theologians of writing, there are certain things that can join, and some things better not say,readers know what I mean understand. You know exactly what a theophany. When I write a non-theological group, and when I use the term Christophany, I have to explain that a Christophany look Testament of Christ. This is the way of writing in all subject directories. Do you understand? The details of the document is complete and teaches entirely on its target audience and the specific object of the author.
Gospel of Matthew - The first ofFour
Matthew, who was also known as Levi, is that the same Levi who collected taxes from Jews to the Romans. Her own people hated him, as one might expect, but Jesus called him one of his disciples to be. Matthew wrote his book no later than 50-60 AD.
Matthew, I think, was a man who was not only a jew, but proud - and I think he always felt that he owed his country for his own betrayal as a tax collector and a thief (like all the tax collectors ).
Therefore,Matthew wrote especially for the Jews, often without talking about things Jewish statement, often of the kingdom of God, who was a Jewish concept. Its primary objective was to his own people, the Jews, and his main subject was - the fact that Jesus Christ was the rightful king of Israel, the legitimate son of David and the Messiah of the Jews had wanted.
Matthew begins his performance with the song of the assets that Israel always kept well documented.This was the legal documentation of cultural heritage. He followed Jesus from King David. The activities that Matthew records the miracles of Jesus and all of them said: "See The King was here, and here's proof."
Symbolism
E 'in each of the four Gospels is proof that stamp of authenticity, from the Book of Ezekiel 1: verse 10 -1-28, but especially here Ezekiel sees a cherubim (actually four glyphs, see and God created the angels), each a different face. One had the face of aLion, the face of an ox, the face of a man, and the face of an eagle.
The symbol that marks the Gospel of Matthew is that of a lion, bear witness to the Bible with the Bible.
Gospel of Mark
Mark has a different personality from Matthew. Do not you think that God has chosen him to be one of the great writers of the ministry of Jesus Christ. There are those that are easy to check Mark Schreiber, an author of the story that says the apostle Peterhim. He was with Peter in Rome for 1 Pt 5:13. That is, if one assumes that Babylon was another name for Rome, and not really Babylon (Iraq). There is room for argument about what Babylon, the author has in mind.
There has never been a big problem if Mark wrote this Gospel that bears his name was. It gave him the fifth century AD represented. There has been much controversy among scholars that Mark has never accepted in the target group, theRomans. As Matthew of his change of load, the Jews, directed its market to the slaves of Rome.
At the writing of Mark, there were more slaves in Rome there was free born citizens. We know that Mark was in Rome at the same time as Paul was, and apparently had a huge burden on these people. Mark wanted to show Jesus as the Servant of God - even obedient unto death.
Symbolism
Back to cherubim four faces of Ezekiel and looked at thewas also a face of an ox. An ox was a beast of burden, a slave, if you will, and that is the symbol of the Gospel of St. Mark.
Who was Mark?
Mark was one of two men, not an inter-district of the apostles of Jesus is assumed (right?) Which is one of the seventy who hung around the team whenever he could. At night, when the soldiers came to Christ, speaks only of a young man who fled in such a fright, lost her tunic, and ran away naked.
Mark traveledwith the apostle Paul and Barnabas, in subsequent years.
The Gospel of Luke
Of all the writers, Luke is unique in many ways. While Matthew wrote to Jews, and Mark wrote to the Romans, Luke wrote for the Greeks. In fact, he also addresses his friend Theophilus. The Greeks were famous for the worship of humanity. It 'was just God and man would eventually find their way.
So I think Luke's purpose was to show Christ as God's people in GodMeat and its pedigree is the Christ all the way back to the first man, Adam, the eldest son of God Christ of which he was fully God and fully man.
Symbolism
Matching the symbolism of Ezekiel Angel, shows Christ with the face of a man.
Who was Luke?
He was a man of science, probably a hybrid, both Jews and Greeks. Eusebius of Caesarea, the first announcement of greek blood of Luke.
Many people think, but there is no other evidence that his great knowledge of ChristMinistry that he, like Mark, was one of the seventy mentioned in his Gospel alone. There is room for language believe that Luke was the second of two men on the road to Emmaus on the day that the Lord had risen, to go with them began. Luke does not name the second man (generally accepted method of authorship adoption), but does the name of the first man was.
Many believe it was personal physician to Mary, because he said nobody would know that personal eventsunless that Mary had revealed to them.
The Gospel of John
This gospel is contrary to one of three that preceded it. John does not conflict with Matthew, Mark, Luke, and the presentation of Jesus, but it is an entirely different. Sense, with the same eyes have seen - the first three Gospels are referred to as the Synoptic Gospels. Your Gospel focuses on the work of Jesus in Galilee and Judea in John, Jesus-centered.
John wrote the Gospel of Jesus last year. After his release fromhis term of imprisonment of Patmos where he wrote the Revelation of Jesus Christ, he made his final home in the ancient city of ancient Ephesus in Turkey.
There can be no doubt that John was very familiar with the three Synoptic Gospels, the Jews, Romans and Greeks. However, he remained the rest of the world - both known and unknown. They also know that God loves them and has offered the opportunity to connect with them.
The Gospel of John objectives of the rest of the world, and itsTheme is that Jesus is not just a man who is not only the Messiah, yet he is only the servant of God, but he is really God's Gospel of John is desperately trying to explain that in some miraculous way, God has taken the form of a human being. No tricks, no hybrid, no ghost, nor angels, but the same God that the world may believe he knows nothing of what we are experiencing here on earth. Again and again, starting with verse, chapter one, John desperately tries to understand us, thatJesus is the physical manifestation of God, who is temporarily in this world, and all who lived through the experience of creation. This includes the cruelty of man toward humanity, physical death.
To date, no student understands that I fully understand the depth of the Gospel of John. I think a person could spend their lives studying this Gospel and do not understand all that it contains.
Conclusion
Even so short, this is a summary of the four Gospels, weThe Gospel call of Jesus Christ.
