[ajwps]

WHEN WERE THEY WRITTEN, BY WHOM, AND WHAT CAN WE TRUST IN THEM?

The Four Gospels, it is claimed, were written by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, two of them apostles, and two companions of the apostles of Christ. I wish that were true, but it is not. If this claim be true the other writings of the apostles, the writings of the Apostolic Fathers, and the writings of the early Christian Fathers, ought to contain some evidences of the fact. We will see shortly that the silence of such writers and the absence from quotes from these "named Gospels" is quite troublesome to the early dating of such documents as originating from these Apostolic authorities. This means that these "Gospels" did not exist at such times or else quotes from such "named Gospels" would be found in the earliest writings of the Early Church Fathers and they are not. This means simply that with such a lack of testimony that it would have been impossible for the actual apostles of Yeshua to have been their authors or else the earliest prolific Early Church writers would have quoted from such "named" Gospels and they do not!

Twenty books—nearly all of the remaining books of the New Testament—are said to have been written by the three apostles, Peter, John, and Paul, a portion of them after the first three Gospels were written; but it is admitted that they contain no evidence whatever of the existence of these Gospels.
