The Gospel originated from different stages.
Stage one was the Jesus stage. This is the life and teachings of Jesus. All of the first stage talks about the time that Jesus spent on the countryside teaching people, preaching the word of God, performing miracles and healing people. The gospels are grounded in historical events, they are part of the human history and it will remain that way forever.
Stage two was the oral stage. This is where Jesus’ travels in the first stage has taken impact. This stage is very important. While Jesus was travelling he gained followers, these included his 12 apostles. Later after Jesus’ resurrection, the apostles went off and preached to many large crowds about him. The message of Jesus was spread even to the
It is the teachings of Jesus and the Apostles; specifically the Christian doctrine of the redemption of man through Jesus as Christ. It is the history and teachings of Jesus. The Gospel is also referred to as the first four books of the New Testament. Any excerpt from any of these books; Matthew, Mark, Luke and John are referred to as the Gospel preached in a religious service.
Chapter four examines the methods Jesus used to teach and spread his messages about the Kingdom of God. Jesus’s primary audience was the common people of first-century Galilee, so he had to adopt creative techniques to teach uneducated people about an unknown “fantastic” topic, the Kingdom of God. His strategy was successful; amassing a great amount of followers and started the foundation of modern Christianity. The methods he utilized, includes teaching through parables, debates and including examples with miracles and enacted parables.

When somebody does a careful examination of the Gospels, he learns a lot about the authors and the time that they were written. The Gospels were written in Hellenistic Greek which is marked by Hebrew phrases and idioms and was used by Jewish writers during the first one hundred years after Christ, but no later than that (Laux p. 61). The Gospels were written extremely vividly; most people agree that only people that were actually there during that time and during those events could have described them in such detail. The Tuebingen School tried to show that the Gospels were written in the late second century, but their theories have been proven to be wrong. Some people try to say that the Gospels were written after the year 70 A.D., but they are wrong and have been proven wrong.
World War I was centered in Europe that began in July 28 1914 due to the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand by Serbian nationalist in Sarajevo, Bosnia.

The gospels are four books in the bible that provide an overview of Jesus’ life. When people read the gospels they may read the words and take them as literal or as whole truths, what you have to remember is that the gospels were not written by first hand observers of Jesus, in fact the identities of the authors are not known. People that lived in the time of Jesus did not recognize his significance until after his death; therefore no one was precisely documenting the travels or word for word teaching of Jesus. Due to the fact that no one was documenting Jesus’ and the authors were not direct observers of the teaching and travels of Jesus but rather heard the stories of Jesus first or second hand the details are changed and missing between the different gospels.
Gospel is an old English word meaning “good news.” When comparing the four gospels they are all unified, but each gospel can have slight differences to them. Whether is literary structure, length, how many teachings, important events, different significance, geography or chronology; they all are correlated to tell us Jesus’ story, in their own way. In like manner, God didn’t give us one explanation from an confined individual. Rather, God educates us about the broad richness of Jesus’ life through a numerous prophet-witnesses. Moreover, God works through well-documented and a valid history, not through confidential revelations to a single person. The prophetic witnesses of the Gospels endorse the truth that God himself is speaking. Each Gospel
The Gospel is structured in predictable structure. The introduction starts out with Genealogy of Jesus.

The events in the Bible are considered to be part of history. Yet such events were written about many years after they actually occurred. The Church believes the Bible’s accounts to be true because they were written by eyewitnesses. Yet researchers note that the Gospels were written during the second century, after the death of the original followers of Jesus.

The word "gospel" is a translation of the Greek word "euangelion" which means "good news. The first three books in the New Testament (Mark, Matthew, and Luke) are often referred to as the Synoptic Gospels (from Greek synoptikos, "seen together") They bear greater similarity to each other than any of the other gospels in the New Testament. Along with these similarities come some differences among the gospels, suggesting that each gospel was written for a specific audience and for a specific purpose. This paper will examine the resurrection of Jesus, while identifying the significant differences between Mark, Matthew and Luke. This paper will also analyze the differences to suggest the prominent theological perspective each gospel author
The third is the Gospel According to Luke. In Luke 4:1-13, Jesus is lead into the wilderness where he starves for forty days and the order of temptations is making bread from the stone, being offered the world, and then being asked to jump from the pinnacle of the temple in Jerusalem. Afterward, the devil leaves and Jesus is left
The word 'gospel' means good news. There are four gospel accounts in the New Testament:
In the Bible, the four Gospels push different ideologies, views, lessons and different stories that center around the central figure of Jesus. The Gospel of Luke main themes center on Universalism, social justice, compassion for outcasts, the role of woman and the Holy Spirit.(Hauer and Young) These parables are able to connect to the context of when Luke was able bring these stories together in 85 CE. The Gospel was most likely written in Greek speaking area located in the Roman empire.(Coogan et al.) This time of stability allowed for the proliferation of Christianity and Gospels such as Luke. The passages that will be discussed will mainly focus on compassion for outcast seen in Luke 16:19–31 and warning against greed in Luke 12:13-34. Luke 13:6-9 focuses on a fig tree talks of the opportunities people and if they use them properly. Finally, the last parable is 7:11-17, which focuses on holy spirit and the possibilities for miracles and the importance of life. These parables in Luke are able to give a social justice commentary that can make a person feel compassionate for the poor and the reckoning they would receive in the afterlife if they didn’t follow Jesus’s teachings. As, well the story is able to push across a message that will everlasting importance to people. This has led to the Gospels of Luke becoming one of the main 4 Gospels and one of the most highly regarded of the Gospels. (Hauer and Young)
The Gospels are narratives about the life and time of Jesus. They describe not only Jesus' life but also what was taking place at that time. This helps to give us a better perception of why some things happened the way they did and what it was possibly like for Jesus. We are able to better understand some of the social and political aspects of life during Jesus' time period, which can help us to overall understand the meaning behind the Gospels better.
