Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from What Think You of Christ?: Is the Christ of the Catholic Church the Christ of the Gospels?
Bearing this in mind, let us see from a considera tion of the Gospels themselves whether there is any What the truth in the objection. And first it is Gospel is necessary to see what the Gospels are and what they are not.
According to some outside the Church, the Gospel would seem to be a collection of maxims or a system of theology; thus we hear of a Gospel sermon, which generally means that the preacher is insisting upon the truth of some particular doctrine which certain people consider all-important. Or we are told that here the pure Gospel is preached, or, again, that the Catholic Church has overlaid the pure Gospel with unscriptural dogmas, and so on.
Well, let us look at the Gospel as contained in the four records, and see what it really is. The word Gospel means good tidings, and in those records we find related the story of a Person, and that Person is Jesus Christ the Son of God.
