Quintus Junius Silanus brought into the world 90 A.D., goes from Rome at the proposal of his old companion Marcus Aemilius Scaurus to go to the addresses of Epictetus in Nicopolis around 118 A.D. Scaurus {like Silanus a nonexistent character) brought into the world around 50 A.D., is a handicapped soldiery and has been for a long time an understudy of random Greek writing including Christian works. In answer to a letter from Scaurus lauding his new instructor, Scaurus communicates his conviction that Epictetus has gone through a phase of the disease with "the Christian superstition" from which he has obtained a few pieces of the superstructure while dismissing its establishment. Silanus to protect his instructor Epictetus from what he thinks about an unreasonable attribution secures the epistles of Paul, His enthusiasm for these leads him to the "sacred writings" from which Paul cites. Thereupon he is driven on to theorize about the idea of the "gospel" lectured by Paul, and about the character and expressions of the "Christ" from whom that "gospel" started. The epistles pass on to him a feeling of profound quality and "obliging affection," He decides to get the Christian accounts. During this time he is at times comparing with Scaurus and going to the addresses of Epictetus, which fulfills him less and less. Appeared differently about the profound quality in the epistles of Paul the addresses appear to contain just energetic fizz. Also, there is express nonattendance of "compelling adoration."

At the point when the three Synoptic accounts reach Silanus from Rome, he gets in the meantime a dangerous analysis on them from Scaurus, Much of this analysis he is empowered to meet with the guide of the Pauline epistles. In any case, enough stays to shake his confidence in their authentic exactness. Nor does he find in them a similar nearness that he found in the epistles, of "compelling adoration," The outcome is, that he is tossed once again from Christ.

At this emergency he meets Clemens, an Athenian, who loans him a gospel that has as of late showed up, the good news of John, Clemens honestly concedes his questions about its origin, and about its total exactness, yet compliments it as passing on the endless profound disclosure natural in Christless deficiently than it is passed on by the Synoptists.

A to some degree comparative view is communicated by Scaurus however with an enormous admixture of threatening analysis. He has as of late gotten the fourth gospel, and it shapes the subject of his last letter. While dismissing a lot of it as unhistorical, he communicates extraordinary deference for it, and for what he regards its basic rule, in particular, that Jesus would he be able to comprehend spare through a "supporter whom Jesus cherished." While conjecturing on what may have occurred on the off chance that he had gone under the impact of a "supporter whom Jesus cherished" Scaurus is struck somewhere around the loss of motion. Silanus sets sail for Italy in the expectation of discovering his companion as yet living. Exactly when he is dismissing the slopes above Nicopolis where Clemens is petitioning God for him, Silanus gets anxiety of Christ's "compelling adoration" and turns into a Christian.
