Entgegen anderslautenden Einschatzungen aus der Forschung verdammen oder verbieten vier wichtige christliche Autoren der Spatantike (Johannes Chrysostomus, Isidor von Pelusium, Hieronymus und Augustin) den Gebrauch von Evangelien als Schutzgegenstand an den wenigen Stellen, an denen das Thema aufkommt, keineswegs. Ihre Einstellung zu solchen Gegenstanden unterscheidet sich merklich von ihrer allgemeinen Ablehnung traditioneller (»paganer«) Amulette. Die genaue Untersuchung der betreffenden Aussagen zu den Evangelien-Amuletten zeigt auserdem, wie man sich deren schutzende oder therapeutische Wirkung vorstellte: Die fruhen Christen betrachteten den Evangelienkodex, der eng am Korper getragen oder im Haus aufbewahrt wird, in einer offenkundigen Neuinterpretation von Rom 1,16 als »Gottes Kraft zur Rettung«, er bietet Erlosung im Hier und Jetzt wie in der eschatologischen Zukunft.
