In an era when various Gnosticizing "gospels" are eagerly marketed, it is important to note the profound coherence of the four canonical gospels from the first century in comparison with the pieties, spiritualities, and politics of second- and third-century "gospels. Thus, for example (and examples are easily multiplied), the canonical Gospels do not infer that God was Jesus' enemy from the fact that God, in some sense, put Jesus to death on the cross ("not my will but thine be done"). The text could not have been written by eyewitnesses, the way at least two of the canonical Gospels were. |
