		Berliner determined that the new instrument did not vibrate freely because the fibers of the wood under the bridge took much time to adjust to the uneven pressures transmitted by the strings through the bridge to the instruments body.
		Berliner employed the radio and distributed free educational literature on "scalding" milk to reduce the scourge of deadly diseases that killed one third of all children.
		Berliner, convinced that many infant's diseases were caused by the ingestion of raw milk, founded the "Society for the Prevention of Sickness" in 1891 and launched a widespread campaign for "scalding" milk before its ingestion.

	Jesus of Nazareth 2 - Crystalinks
		Other New Testament apocrypha, generally considered less important, include the Gospel of the Hebrews, the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, the Infancy Gospels, the Gospel of Peter, the Unknown Berlin Gospel, the Naassene Fragment, the Secret Gospel of Mark, the Egerton Gospel, the Oxyrhynchus Gospels and the Fayyum Fragment.
		Specifically, many scholars believe that the Q document and the Gospel of Mark were the two sources used for the gospels of Matthew and Luke; however, other theories, such as the older Augustinian hypothesis, continue to hold sway with some Biblical scholars.
		Some say that the Gospel accounts are neither objective nor accurate, since they were written or compiled by his followers and seem to exclusively portray a positive, idealized view of Jesus.

		In addition to the four Gospels, a dozen or so non-canonical texts also exist, among which the Gospel of Thomas is believed by some textual critics to predate the Gospels of the traditional canon.
		Some critics speculate that the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) used as sources a Q document, Logia, M-Source, and Oral tradition, and that the Gospel of John used a Signs Gospel though none of these are currently extant.
		The dating of the Gospel of Thomas is believed by some scholars to possibly predate the canonical Gospels, and therefore this non-canonical Gospel may not rightly be called apocryphal, or be said to have any greater or lesser level of scholarly certainty existing about its authenticity, than any of the four canonical Gospels.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Synoptics
		It is undoubted, too, that the general background of the Gospels is Semitic in thought and forms of expression, and even that Semitic documents (for instance, Christ's genealogies) have been used by their authors.
		But tradition ascribes to St. Mark's Gospel a very different origin from the one supposed by this theory, and a careful study of the contents and the style of that Gospel has recently convinced several prominent scholars that the work is not a compilation from written sources.
		One work like our Gospel of St. Mark, if not identical with it, is the source of the narratives common to the first three Gospels, and the other, containing the Sayings of Jesus, is the source of the didactic matter common to St. Matthew and St. Luke.

	Did Jesus Christ exist?
		Our main source for his life is the four gospels of the New Testament, probably composed in the last quarter of the century (about fifty years after Jesus's death), when his utterances and actions, recounted by disciples and their followers, had been reformulated in light of later Christian views of his messiahship.
		Among these are the Unknown Berlin Gospel, the Oxyrhynchus Gospels, the Egerton Gospel, the Fayyum Fragment, the Dialogue of the Saviour, the Gospel of the Ebionites, the Gospel of the Hebrews, and the Gospel of the Nazarenes.
		Some say that the Gospel accounts are neither objective nor accurate, since they were written or compiled by his followers and seem to exclusively portray a positive, idealized view of Jesus, whilst others point to the lack of contemporary non-Christian sources.

	Evidence That the Gospels Are Authentic
		The received text of the Gospels is based on a large number of manuscripts in the original language, Greek, together with a large number of ancient versions in other languages.
		We can be sure, as we read the Gospels, that we have what the authors wrote rather than a text filled with late corruptions, reflecting the thinking and fancy of men who lived long after the time of Jesus.
		Gospel citations and parallels appear even in the earliest noncanonical Christian writings, in those dating from the late first or early second century.

	First Lecture: The Gospel of St. John
		On the other hand modern theologians try to interpret the John Gospel as a sort of poetic work, a confession of faith, the writings of a person portraying his feelings, his intimate religious life as it was born in him through the impact of Christianity.
		Thus the John Gospel could be considered as a devotional work, a deeply felt confession of faith, not as anything that could be taken as Christian historical facts.
		The John Gospel is not a poetic work, nor a writing arising from mere religious fervour, but sets forth revelations from higher worlds that the writer of the gospel has received.

		A "Gospel of Philip" and a "Gospel of Thomas".
		The Gospel of Thomas must have been of considerable length (1300 lines); part of it, in an expurgated recension, is possibly extant in the once popular, but vulgar and foolish, "Stories of the Infancy of Our Lord by Thomas, an Israelite philosopher", of which two Greek, as Latin, a Syriac, and a Slavonic version exist.

		However, other scholars date the Gospel of Thomas as late as 150, see gnostic influences in it, cite the lack of any definitive support that any church fathers quoted it, and believe it suffers from a paucity of manuscripts.
		All four Gospel accounts mention that the charge noted on the tablet called the titulus crucis, attached by orders of Pilate atop the cross, included the term "King of the Jews", though Pilate is represented as having found nothing inherently seditous in Jesus' kingdom conception.
		The Synoptic Gospel accounts further state that an angel was waiting at the tomb to explain to them that Jesus had been resurrected, though the Gospel according to John makes no mention of this encounter.

		Aside from the Gospel of the Nazarenes, these texts mostly survive as quotes scattered amongst critical commentaries by catholic Christians, some modern theories suggest that these may be variations on one another, although the quotations from the Gospel of the Ebionites appear more distinct than the others.

	Unknown Berlin Gospel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Unknown Berlin Gospel is a fragmentary Coptic text from an otherwise unknown gospel that has joined the New Testament apocrypha under the title Gospel of the Saviour.
		It consists of a fragmentary fire-damaged parchment codex that was acquired by the Egyptian Museum of Berlin in 1961 (accessioned as Papyrus Berolinensis 22220).
		The Gospel is not a narrative but a dialogue, a form often chosen in Antiquity for didactic material.

	Gospel of Mary of Magdala: An ancient manuscript, a radical interpretation of Jesus' teachings -- Beliefnet.com
		The story of the Gospel of Mary is a simple one.
		Since the first six pages are lost, the gospel opens in the middle of a scene portraying a discussion between the Savior and his disciples set after the resurrection.
		The Savior had explained to her the nature of prophecy and the rise of the soul to its final rest, describing how to win the battle against the wicked, illegitimate Powers that seek to keep the soul entrapped in the world and ignorant of its truly spiritual nature.

		Since the fall of the Berlin Wall, the churches of Central and Eastern Europe have entered the stage a generation behind.
		It remains to be seen if their "falling out of history" was a period of sleep, or rather a "moratorium" in the same sense as Erik Erickson once found that the postponement represented by, say, military service was an important phase in a young man's development.
		But the power of the helpless was also the Christian faith, the power of the Gospel to create a living community of people who thought and lived "differently" in the midst of a demoralized society.

	Berlin Gospel / Lost Gospel / Gospel of the Savior
		One of the statements of the 'saviour' is also found in the Coptic Gospel of Thomas - 'he that is near me is near to the fire; he that is far from me is far from life' (107.43-48, CGoT 82).
		To call this work a gospel forces the editors to define a 'gospel' to mean nothing more specific than a work containing sayings or perhaps narrative about someone who may be called Jesus or is in some way based on the historical figure (p.1).
		To call the codex the 'Gospel of the Savior' also seems unwise, in view of the inferences that those ignorant of the subject will infallibly draw from it.

	The Sower
		Kilgo was particularly drawn to the figure because of an inspiring, popular baccalaureate sermon based on the parable of the sower from the Gospel of Matthew preached two years previously at Trinity commencement by his colleague Bishop W. McDowell.
		Kilgo also admired the statue's "strength and nobleness of face and the strong arm with which the laborer faced his daily toil." He believed the statue would be a powerful model for students as they completed four years of study and faced the challenge of life.
		Although the origin of this practice is largely unknown, and it is unnecessary to most students today, it is not uncommon to still discover pennies in the Sower's hand.

	The Berlin mission and the Challenges of South Africa
		Thus the Berlin missionary Albert Kropf (1822-1910) – to cite one example – was born the son of a non-commissioned officer in the Prussian army and apprenticed as a printer from his fourteenth year on; he was ordained as a missionary at the age of 22.
		In his later life he was appointed as "superintendent" of the Xhosa synod of the Berlin Mission Society, had a lion's share in the translation of the Bible, wrote a monograph on the Xhosa and published what was to become, for generations, the standard Xhosa-English dictionary.
		Jooste makes the interesting observation that there seemed to be a correlation between the increasing acceptance of and co-operation with Boer authorities on the part of the missionaries on the one hand, and their growing alienation from the needs and aspirations of the indigenous converts on the other.

		The Baptism of Christ, by Piero della Francesca, 1449.The Gospels state that Jesus is the Messiah[10] and Son of God (a term whose implications are heavily disputed),[11] sent to "give his life as a ransom for many" and "preach the good news of the kingdom of God." (Mark 10:45, Luke 4:43).
		According to the Gospels, Jesus was raised from the dead on the third day after his crucifixion.[12] The Gospel of Matthew states that an angel appeared near the tomb of Jesus and announced his resurrection to the women who had arrived to anoint the body.
		The Gospels record that Jesus was a Nazarene, but the meaning of this word is vague.[17] Some scholars assert that Jesus was himself a Pharisee.[18] In Jesus' day, the two main schools of thought among the Pharisees were the House of Hillel and the House of Shammai.

		This Gospel is regarded by many learned theologians nowadays as the Gospel which is of lesser importance for the religious development of Man.
		For those whose main concern is to enter into the spirit of Christianity and into the tasks of the immediate future, the John Gospel is the most important of the four.
		From the 13th chapter onwards, the John Gospel is not merely a narration of certain facts and happenings, but every sentence is a source of occult forces.

	Excerpts
		Because it is unusual for several copies from such early dates to have survived, the attestation of the Gospel of Mary as an early Christian work is unusually strong.
		As far as we know, the Gospel of Mary was never recopied after the fifth century; it may have been that the Gospel of Mary was actively suppressed, but it is also possible that it simply dropped out of circulation.
		Either way, whether its loss resulted from animosity or neglect, the recovery of the Gospel of Mary, in however fragmentary condition, is due in equal measure to phenomenal serendipity and extraordinary good fortune.

		The primary sources about Jesus are the four canonical Gospel accounts, which depict him as a Jewish preacher, healer and God himself; often at odds with Jewish authorities — who was crucified in Jerusalem during the rule of the Roman prefect Pontius Pilate.
		In addition to the four Gospels, a dozen or so non- canonical texts also exist, among which the Gospel of Thomas is believed by some textual critics to predate the Gospels of the traditional canon.
		According to the canonical gospel accounts (Matthew 27:24-26, Mark 15:15, Luke 23:24-25, John 19:16a), Pontius Pilate, bowing to the Jewish religious leaders' pressure, handed Jesus over (paredoken) (to his Roman soldiers) to be crucified.
