"Q" doesn't exist. It never did. It is pure speculation that it did. Speculate!!! And they call our trust in the Scriptures incredible!!
'sayings gospel' was circulating before the canonical Gospels were penned?
The Gospel of St Thomas is a 'sayings gospel,' the content of which was
based strongly on what we believe 'Q' contained, with modifications and
additions (just like St Matthew did). The bulk of St Thomas's original content
comes from early 2nd century.
If you are going to assert that 'Q' didn't exist, perhaps you should provide a
little evidence to this claim to counter the evidence in the Two-Source Hypothesis.
