The four Gospels are collectively called?

• A. Gospels
• B. Gospel
• C. Acts
• D. Epistles

Answer: (A)

Think about how we name a group of related books. The four accounts of Jesus’ life—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—are each a separate book, but they share a common purpose: telling the good news about Jesus. When we refer to all of them together, we use the plural form Gospels. Using the singular Gospel would point to one of those books or to the message itself, not to the whole set. Other parts of the New Testament have different names: Acts describes the early church after the Gospels, and Epistles are letters to Christian communities.
