BARTHOLOMEW, GOSPEL OF

An apocryphal Gospel mentioned in Jerome’s commentary on Matthew (Jerome reports also that Bartholomew preached to the Indians and died at Albanopolis in Armenia). It was condemned in the Gelasian decree, referred to in the works of Epiphanius the Monk, and may be quoted in the Pseudo-Dionysian writings. None of this Gospel has survived, though some associate it with the extant Greek, Latin, and Slavonic Questions of Bartholomew.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
