| Each Wednesday at Trinity during the season of Lent an account of the suffering, crucifixion, and death of Jesus Christ is read from The Christ of the Gospel, a harmony of the Gospels by William F. Beck translator of An American Translation of the Bible published in New Haven in 1975. The preface of this harmony of the Gospels by William F. Beck says: If Jesus were talking to us today, He wouldn’t use the strange words of long ago. He would talk to us in the language we use when we talk to one another. The purpose of this book is to let Jesus tell us His wonderful truths in our own language. What He said and did was written down by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. And we have to read all four Gospels if we want the whole story of Jesus. Only Matthew and Luke tell us how Jesus was born. Only John tells us about the raising of Lazarus and the breakfast of the disciples with their risen Savior by the lake. Three of these writers, Matthew, Mark, and Luke, tell us about the Lord’s Supper. But all four tell us how He suffered, died, and rose again. How do the four Gospels fit together? How do the many events follow one another in the life of Christ? What was the one life of Jesus that all four writers tell us about? These are the problems which I have tried to solve. Here you will find everything in the four Gospels fitted together in one flowing story. Here is the life of Jesus from the time He came down to the earth until He returned to His Father. It is a thrilling story, something never seen “on land or sea.” It is the story of the Son of God who loved us and gave Himself for us. Here we meet Him face to face, let Him talk to us, and as He goes to give His lifeblood for us, we let Him tell us, “Your sins are forgiven.” And so He reaches with power into our lives, claims us as His own, never to let us go. |
