The four gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John all focus on the Jesus’s life; that include the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus.The purpose of this teaching is to continue the work that Jesus Christ had begun while on earth. The apostles want to share the good news with world. As NT Wright stated, they wanted to “work towards a loving, restorative and justice in the present world.” Because of the fact that no one in the First Century expected the Messiah to be crucified it was imperative that they got this message out. Also, with the knowledge of Jesus and a new understanding of the Old Testament they were better equipped to do this. Without this knowledge, the theology of the Resurrection would be

Our source of knowledge of the apostolic work of Paul comes first from the Book of Acts. The epistles written by Paul serve to further our knowledge of his mission. These letters were written to churches that he had founded or churches that were known to him. Luke’s account of Paul introduces us to the basic facts about this important biblical figure. A more complete understanding of Paul’s journeys can be gleaned from his letters. These epistles were written almost at the time they occurred and they comprise some of the earliest works contained in the New Testament.

1. Evaluate the arguments for and against the traditional views of the authorship of the Gospel of John. Describe the role of the Beloved Disciple and his relationship to the Fourth Gospel. It is a commonly held theory that the Apostle John wrote the book, but as he would have been rather old at the time, there is some debate about that claim.

In the book of Acts, we see many continuations of different messages begun by other people. The book of Acts brings a connection to the Gospels and Paul's epistles. Luke and Acts were both written by Luke. The book of Acts was written after the resurrection of Jesus. It could be said that book of Acts a continuation of the book of Luke. We see that the purpose of the book of Luke is Luke trying to help Theophilus understand the things of Christ. In turn, l believe the purpose of the book of Acts is to show that the gap between Jewish and Gentile believes has been filled. Because of the new covenant, they could now become believers in Christ without having to fear judgement of not being of Jewish descent. The book of Acts is also very important

Each of the four Gospels contains points in ecclesiology. In the Great Commission, Jesus’ last instruction to the Apostles is to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing and teaching people (Matthew 28:19-20). For Jesus’ mission to continue and for his Church to grow, discipleship is necessary. Discipleship is a prominent theme in all four Gospels, for purposes of this essay, only the Gospels of John and Luke-Acts will be analyzed. The similarities regarding discipleship in these Gospels include images of the net and fishing, and the sheep/shepherd/sheepfold. The differences include the preparing of the Twelve to carry on Jesus' ministry in Luke, and service to the community and passing of authority in John's Gospel.

The New Testament is a collection of books which contains the writings concerning the significant events in the life of Jesus of Nazareth. These books appeared after the physical death of Jesus Christ. In this regard, Jesus had left no records concerning him, and all that is written about him depends wholly on what other people have written about him. The first four books of the New Testament are part of the several biographies of Jesus which were written by the end of the first century of the era of Christianity. Then before any of these biographies have been drafted, there were Christian communities which were being instructed through epistles on how to live like Jesus and how to solve their problem like Christians. A good number of these letters were written by a man called Paul. After Paul death, some other new leaders of the Christian movement continued to write letters to the churches to encourage and strengthen them. As Christians grew in number persecution arose, and some letters have been drafted to support them and also to counter the false doctrines. These letters are part of the New Testament. The twenty-seven books of the New Testament were selected from the list of writings in that period (Bruce, 1988)
