The Gospel Forgeries (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162902296)

The Gospel Forgeries by Joseph Wheless is a controversial book that challenges the authenticity of the four Gospels of the New Testament. The author argues that the Gospels were not written by the apostles or eyewitnesses, but rather by anonymous authors who lived many years after the time of Jesus. Wheless claims that the Gospels were written to promote a particular theological agenda and to create a new religion based on the teachings of Jesus.The book provides a detailed analysis of the Gospels, highlighting inconsistencies, contradictions, and historical inaccuracies. Wheless argues that the Gospels were not written as historical documents, but rather as works of fiction that were intended to persuade readers to accept the teachings of Christianity.The author also examines the historical context in which the Gospels were written, arguing that they were influenced by the prevailing religious beliefs and political ideologies of the time. Wheless suggests that the Gospels were written as a response to the growing popularity of other religions and philosophies, such as Gnosticism and Stoicism.Overall, The Gospel Forgeries is a provocative and thought-provoking book that challenges traditional beliefs about the origins and authenticity of the New Testament. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity and the development of religious beliefs.THIS 72 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Forgery in Christianity: A Documented Record of the Foundations of the Christian Religion, by Joseph Wheless.
