Chapter 12 The Four Gospels by Chaplain Ron McCants

The Literary Worlds of The Gospels

Mark: The Secret Revealed through Suffering Matthew: A Higher Righteousness Luke: Good News for All John: The Journey of Jesus

Mark: The Secret Revealed through Suffering This crucial theme: This Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. John the Baptizer, "He who is mightier than I" Mark 1:7 Mark 8:18 Jesus Rebukes the Twelve

Matthew: A Higher Righteousness The genealogy in Matthew 1:1-17 Matthew 7:28 Like Moses, Jesus delivers an authoritative teaching from a mountain: "You have heard of old… but I say to you…" Clarity of the old. Matthew 26:42 Jesus acceptance of the cross

Luke: Good News for All Theophilus "friend of God" Universalism - "all the people Mt. 2:10 Social Justice - Mary Magnificat - Mt. 1:46-55 Compassion for Outcasts - Those branded with social disapproval receive his attention as in Matthew 7:36-50; 17:11-19; 19:1-10 The Role of Women - Two sisters, Mary and Martha, Mt. 10:38-42 The Holy Spirit - Mt. 3:21-22 on Jesus Risen Lord - Mt. 24:52

John: The Journey of Jesus Proclamation of the "Good News" John 20:31 The beginning of Jesus' ministry – Jn 2:13-25 The "LOGOS" is identified with the light of creation (Gen. 1:3-4) and is the true source of religious illumination. Curing a blind man in Jerusalem, John 9
