THANK YOU for reading ONE.  You’ve made a great decision.  ONE is the most complete and authoritative unified gospel available anywhere—at any price.

• If you are interested in seeing an UNABRIDGED excerpt with colorized text, our Newsletter Volume 1 Number 2 contains a superb example of the benefits of the unified text, click here for Newsletter Volume 1 Number 2.

Because ONE is the seamless verbatim unification of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, you may not even notice that you are reading the actual text of all four Gospels at the same time!  With 3,000 references in the Unification Index back to the source Gospels, each clause in all of the Gospels is accounted for in ONE.  And, the new Gospel Index allows you reference from the source Gospels into ONE, and the new Word Index (both available online) gives you power over individual words in the text of ONE.   Three separate powerful indices to give you control over the text!

Generally speaking, there are two ways to enjoy ONE, and they are both wonderful!

The first way is to just read the work—straight through—as one may read a novel.  The unification process makes reading the Gospel of Jesus easier than ever.  Even so, you can read ONE with comfort that every clause you read is authoritatively reconciled back to the original source Gospels.  The second way is to savor ONE through deepened study, by referencing back to your favorite version of the Gospels, on a clause-by-clause basis.  Every clause in each of the four Gospels is referenced in ONE. ONE is an authentic parallel of all four Gospels within a seamless harmony of the Gospels!

There is no text in the original four Gospels not accounted for in the text of ONE.  ONE has 3,000 references back to the original source Gospels.  Easy as 1-2-3:

• 1. Read any clause in ONE.
• 2. Note the citation, e.g., 1707 in the example below.
• 3. Reference the citation back to the Unification Index to determine from which original texts the ONE text is derived.  ONE:1707 is derived from Matthew 18:21.

Legend:

• Matthew
• Mark
• Luke
• John
• Matthew and Mark Only
• Matthew, Mark and Luke Only (the "Synoptic Gospels")
• All Gospels

• Teaching Unending Forgiveness

  This example illustrates how an important teaching is clarified by unification of the Gospels.  The teaching of unending forgiveness is only contained in two of the four Gospels: Matthew and Luke.  In Luke, however, there is a condition of repentance.  Often the Gospels of Matthew and Luke are separated by the Gospel of Mark.  Accordingly, the reader will not mentally unify the teachings because of the remoteness of the lessons:

  In Matthew 18:21-22, the command to forgive is as follows: "Then Peter approaching asked him, 'Lord, if my brother sins against me, how often must I forgive him? As many as seven times?' Jesus answered, "You should forgive him, not seven times but seventy-seven times."
  
  In Luke 17:3-4, it is as follows: "Be on your guard! If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. And if he wrongs you seven times in one day and returns to you seven times saying, ‘I am sorry,’ you should forgive him."

  See ONE:1707-1711. It reads in the text as follows:

  ¹⁷⁰⁷ Then Peter approaching asked him, "Lord, if my brother sins against me, how often must I forgive him? As many as seven times?” ¹⁷⁰⁸ Jesus answered, ¹⁷⁰⁹ “Be on your guard! If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. ¹⁷¹⁰ And if he wrongs you seven times in one day and returns to you seven times saying, ‘I am sorry,’ you should forgive him. ¹⁷¹¹ I say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven times."

  So, in the final text of ONE, it reads smoothly as follows, not only with greater impact and clarity, but also with the full revelation of Jesus' message:

  1707 Then Peter approaching asked him, "Lord, if my brother sins against me, how often must I forgive him? As many as seven times?” 1708 Jesus answered, 1709 “Be on your guard! If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. 1710 And if he wrongs you seven times in one day and returns to you seven times saying, ‘I am sorry,’ you should forgive him. 1711 I say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven times."

  Even though the text reads smoothly for the casual reader, the ONE citations provide an authoritative reference back to the source Gospels for the student, scholar, preacher.

• Teaching by Simile of Salt

This example illustrates how three of the Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John (the "Synoptic Gospels") have subtle distinctions in the text.  They all contain the simile of salt, but have nuances that, when unified, enrich the teaching.  If not unified, the subtleties are difficult to recall and mentally to unify:

⁴⁸⁵  “You are the salt of the earth. ⁴⁸⁶  Salt is good. ⁴⁸⁷ But if salt loses its taste, with what will you restore its flavor?  It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. ⁴⁸⁸ Everyone will be salted with fire. ⁴⁸⁹ Keep salt in yourselves and you will have peace with one another. ⁴⁹⁰ Whoever has ears to hear ought to hear.”

Only Matthew has [485], only Luke has [486] and [490], and only Mark has [488] and [489].  The Synoptic Gospels have similar text in [487].  The follow shows how the separate concepts are integrated with no loss of verbatim integrity, and, yet, allowing the reader to easily grasp the entire message of Jesus:

485  “You are the salt of the earth. 486  Salt is good. 487 But if salt loses its taste, with what will you restore its flavor?  It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. 488 Everyone will be salted with fire. 489 Keep salt in yourselves and you will have peace with one another. 490 Whoever has ears to hear ought to hear.”

• The Crucifixion; Father Forgive Them

This example demonstrates how each of the four Gospels tell only a piece of the story of Jesus' crucifixion.  Unless you read ONE, you need to gain your understanding of the circumstances in bits and pieces as you read each of the Gospels.

²⁷⁷⁸ And when they came to a place called Golgotha (which means “Place of the Skull”), ²⁷⁷⁹ they gave Jesus wine to drink mixed with myrrh and gall. But when he had tasted it, he refused to drink it.  ²⁷⁸⁰ It was nine o’clock in the morning when they had placed him onto the cross. ²⁷⁸¹ After being placed on the cross, ²⁷⁸² Jesus said: “Father, forgive them, they know not what they do.”

²⁷⁸³ Then, the soldiers took his clothes and divided them into four shares, one share for each. They also took his tunic, but the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from the top down, so ²⁷⁸⁴ they divided his garments by casting lots for them to see what each should take. ²⁷⁸⁵ They said to one another, “Let’s not tear it, but cast lots for it to see whose it will be,” in order that the passage of scripture might be fulfilled: They divided my garments among them, and for my vesture they cast lots.

So that is what the soldiers did. ²⁷⁸⁶ Then they sat down and kept watch over him there.

²⁷⁸⁷ Pilate also had an inscription written and put on the cross and placed over his head, it read, “Jesus the Nazorean, the King of the Jews.” ²⁷⁸⁸ Now, many of the Jews read this inscription, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city. It was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek. ²⁷⁸⁹ So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write ‘The King of the Jews,’ but that he said, ‘I am the King of the Jews.’” ²⁷⁹⁰ Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”

This text demonstrates how all four Gospels separately describe interwoven circumstances, which, if not unified textually, are extremely difficult to grasp.  As shown in the coloration (assuming it can be shown on the resolution/monitor settings on your screen), there is important text only in John (Pilate's comments regarding the inscription), important text only in Luke ("Father forgive them..."), important text only in Mark (time of being placed on the cross), and text that is generally common to all four Gospels at times, and, at other times, only two or three of the Gospels.  With ONE, the reader gains the verbatim text, but gains a more seamless understanding of the Gospels--greater clarity and impact, while maintaining integrity of the original text.

2778 And when they came to a place called Golgotha (which means “Place of the Skull”), 2779 they gave Jesus wine to drink mixed with myrrh and gall. But when he had tasted it, he refused to drink it.  2780 It was nine o’clock in the morning when they had placed him onto the cross. 2781 After being placed on the cross, 2782 Jesus said: “Father, forgive them, they know not what they do.” 2783 Then, the soldiers took his clothes and divided them into four shares, one share for each. They also took his tunic, but the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from the top down, so 2784 they divided his garments by casting lots for them to see what each should take. 2785 They said to one another, “Let’s not tear it, but cast lots for it to see whose it will be,” in order that the passage of scripture might be fulfilled: They divided my garments among them, and for my vesture they cast lots. So that is what the soldiers did. 2786 Then they sat down and kept watch over him there. 2787 Pilate also had an inscription written and put on the cross and placed over his head, it read, “Jesus the Nazorean, the King of the Jews.” 2788 Now, many of the Jews read this inscription, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city. It was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek. 2789 So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write ‘The King of the Jews,’ but that he said, ‘I am the King of the Jews.’” 2790 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
