The four Gospels are the accounts at the beginning of the New Testament about the saving work of God in his son Jesus Christ. The writers of the four gospels introduced a new literary category into literature. The gospels are not exactly biographies‚ because apart from certain events surrounding Jesus’ birth‚ (Matt. 1-2; Luke 1-2) and one from Jesus’ youth (Luke 2:41-52)‚ they record only the last two or three years of Jesus’ life.
