Which gospel omits the Mount of Transfiguration & the prayers of Jesus at Gethsemane and why?

The author of the fourth gospel was singled out among the disciples of Jesus as being the one whom "Jesus loved" and he was a key figure in the life of Jesus. Still, few stop to consider why this beloved disciple used terms like the "other disciple, whom Jesus loved" to conceal his identity. Some say the writer of the gospel did this simply to be humble, but would they also have us assume a biblical author was not humble if he identified himself by name, such as John did repeatedly in the Book of Revelation?      Unlike the apostles, the beloved disciple stood at the foot of the cross. So why did this "other disciple" hide his identity when he wrote the fourth gospel? The Bible has the answer and a free eBook called The Disciple Whom Jesus Loved shows how trusting scripture is better than trusting the traditions of men when it comes to shedding light on the unnamed author who wrote the fourth gospel and the one-of-a-kind gift from God that made this beloved disciple so unique.

Was John the beloved disciple who wrote the fourth gospel?
If the one "Jesus loved" was John, the Bible would affirm that idea. Yet, it turns out there is not a single verse that justifies teaching that idea. In fact the biblical evidence proves John was not the author of the gospel that was eventually wrongly labeled the Gospel of John or Book of John by the traditions of men.      The Disciple Whom Jesus Loved follows the method of the Bereans (who "searched the scriptures" to confirm what they had been told) and trusts the testimony of scripture to reveal the truth. You're the jury and the Bible is Exhibit A as we seek to solve the mystery of the beloved disciple who wrote the fourth gospel.      This is a case of The Bible vs. Tradition. But in this or any other case, how we answer a question will depend on where we look for the answer. If we put our confidence in non-Bible sources and rely on teachers, commentaries, or scholars to do our thinking for us, then if they say 'John wrote the Gospel of John', we will simply believe it.		After the resurrection, who was the first disciple that "believed" and what did he see that caused this?

Who was the "other disciple"? The Bible has the answer
Which gospel leaves out the breaking of the bread and the sharing of the cup at the Last Supper and why?		The idea that John was the beloved disciple is habitually presented as if it was biblical, but The Disciple Whom Jesus Loved proves that idea cannot stand up to biblical scrutiny. While the John idea depends on non-Bible sources, this study relies on the Bible only – because God's word is true and, therefore, we should trust it above all other sources.      The traditions of men are fallible, so we should look to the Bible to test our beliefs. "It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man" (Ps. 118:8). Thus, if no verse of scripture suggests the one whom "Jesus loved" was John, why would we trust that tradition?      Scripture can prove the author of the fourth gospel was not John and it can solve the mystery of the beloved disciple by revealing the identity of this gospel author. (Amazingly, this beloved disciple and anonymous gospel writer was one of the most notable people who associated with Jesus during his earthly ministry.)

The beloved disciple did not label his book The Gospel of John. In our Bible the fourth Gospel is titled the Gospel of John, Gospel according to John, Saint John's Gospel or the Book of John, but these labels were simply added to this unnamed Gospel author’s work long after it was written. From the Mt. of Transfiguration to Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead, from the Last Supper to Jesus’ prayers in the Garden of Gethsemane, this free printable Bible study presents the Biblical evidence needed to prove who wrote the Gospel of John – i.e. who was the disciple Jesus loved? Search the scriptures! The Biblical evidence shows the Apostle John was not this beloved disciple.
