- Gospel according to Luc (disciple of Paul de Tarse and author of the Acts of the Apostles),
- Gospel according to Jean (also apostle).
The first three Gospels are called synoptic. The Gospel according to Jean presents several characteristics, reason for which it is not described as synoptic.
The others Gospel S were not recognized by the Fathers of the Church, because they comprise certain improbabilities. They are described as apocryphal books. For example, the Gospels according to Thomas, Judas… are apocryphal books and not recognized by the Church.
