canonical gospels
Four accepted accounts
The canonical gospels are the four accounts of Jesus's life accepted as authoritative scripture by Christian churches: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
They form the core of the New Testament.
The term distinguishes these from other early Christian gospels—such as Thomas or Peter—that were excluded from the biblical canon.
