Modern theologians see three stages in the development of the gospels.

  1. The life, mission and resurrection of Jesus
  2. The post-resurrection teaching of the apostles
  3. The actual writing of the gospels by the evangelists.

Those who look at the development of the gospels in three clear-cut stages often see the third stage as the most important for Christianity, because the gospels are not so much literal histories but reflections on the meaning of Jesus.

Some scholars would not find the three-stage model very useful, because it may encourage assumptions about the linear progression of early Christianity.

the three stages are:

1. events: jesus' life death and resurrection

2. oral tradition:stories about jesus are spread by word of mouth

3. written texts: the good news is written down to preserve it and make it easier to educate the growing number of chistians.

The three stages of Gospel development are the historical Jesus (life and teachings of Jesus), the oral tradition (stories and sayings passed down orally), and the written Gospels (canonical writings that recount the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus).
