What's inside the four-Gospels PDF

All 89 chapters of the four Gospels in the unaltered King James Version. Matthew (28 chapters) presents Jesus as the promised King of the Jews. Mark (16 chapters) is the shortest, fastest-moving account, written as Peter's eyewitness record. Luke (24 chapters) is the most detailed historian's account, written for a Gentile audience. John (21 chapters) is the most theological, opening with 'In the beginning was the Word' and showing Jesus as God in the flesh.

Why start a new believer with the Gospels

Christians have long recommended that new readers begin with the Gospel of John, then Mark, then Luke, then Matthew. John explains who Jesus is, Mark shows what He did, Luke gives the careful historical detail, and Matthew shows how Jesus fulfils the Old Testament. With all four in one PDF, you can walk through them in any order — or read all four side-by-side on a passage like the resurrection.

Famous passages included

The Christmas story (Matthew 1–2, Luke 2), the Sermon on the Mount and the Beatitudes (Matthew 5–7), the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13), the parables of the Good Samaritan and Prodigal Son (Luke 10, 15), the raising of Lazarus (John 11), the bread of life discourse (John 6), the upper-room discourse (John 13–17), the crucifixion (all four Gospels), and the resurrection (all four Gospels) — every famous passage in full.

Using the Gospels PDF for evangelism

Because the KJV is public domain, many ministries print just the Gospel of John — or all four Gospels — as evangelism booklets. With this PDF you can print as many copies as you need for outreach, give one to a friend on their phone, or attach it to an email. No copyright, no permission needed.

Frequently asked questions

Is the four-Gospels PDF really free?

Yes. The King James Version of the Gospels is in the public domain — no sign-up, no email, no fees. Download, print, share, or gift it freely.

Which Gospels are included?

All four: the Gospel of Matthew, the Gospel of Mark, the Gospel of Luke, and the Gospel of John — every chapter, every verse, in full KJV text.

Can I download just the Gospel of John?

This PDF contains all four Gospels in one file. Open it, use the bookmarks to jump to John 1, then print only the chapters of John if that is what you need.

Which Gospel should I read first?

Most pastors recommend starting with the Gospel of John for new believers — it opens with 'In the beginning was the Word' and clearly shows Jesus as the Son of God. Then read Mark for action, Luke for historical detail, and Matthew for the connection to the Old Testament.

What translation is used?

The King James Version (KJV), first published in 1611 — the most widely read English translation of the Gospels in history.

Are the parables included?

Yes. Every parable Jesus taught — the Good Samaritan, the Prodigal Son, the Sower, the Lost Sheep, the Mustard Seed, the Wheat and Tares, the Talents, the Sheep and Goats, and many more — is included in the chapter where it appears.

Are the miracles of Jesus included?

Yes. Every recorded miracle — the water turned to wine, the feeding of the five thousand, the calming of the storm, the healing of the blind and lame, the raising of the dead, and many others — is included in full.

Can I use this PDF for a Gospel-tract ministry?

Absolutely. Because the KJV is public domain, you can print, distribute, and reprint the four Gospels freely for evangelism, missions, and outreach without any permission or royalty.
