THERE WAS A MAN WHO DWELT IN THE EAST, CENTURIES AGO AND NOW I CANNOT LOOK AT A SHEEP OR A SPARROW, A LILY OR A WHEATFIELD, A RAVEN OR A SUNSET, A VINEYARD OR A MOUNTAIN WITHOUT THINKING OF HIM! G. K. Chesterton
Formation of the Gospels • The Gospels are first and foremost documents of Faith. • Sources: Oral tradition from the Faith Community and some written: “Q” source. • Actual final formation of the first written Gospel was delayed because of the imminent expectation of the Parousia.
• Revelation 3: 1! “I am coming quickly. Hold fast to what you have. ” • Rev 22: 20 “The one who gives this testimony says, ‘Yes, I am coming soon. ’” • Mt 10: 23 “Amen I say to you, you will not finish the towns of Israel until the Son of Man comes. ”
• 1 Pet 4: 7 “The end of all things is at hand. ” • Rev 1: 3 The appointed time is near. ”

• Matthew written with a special emphasis for persons of Jewish ethnicity to prove that Jesus was the Messiah. • Mark written for Gentiles presents Jesus as the Messiah and the Son of God. • Luke written for gentiles to show Jesus as universal Savior.
• Gospel of John • Very different from the synoptics, and will be considered later. • John presents Jesus as one who was with the Father from eternity, descended from heaven and became man.
