Wa alaykum assalam.
First, although irrelevant, I am a sister admin.
Secondly, there are debates on the authenticity of the Gospel of Barnabas because of the contradictions he has to the other gospels in the KJV. The rule of thumb for many Christians (and they can correct me if I am wrong) is that if its not in harmony or if it contradicts the gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John then its to be rejected. My viewpoint is that the Gospel of Barnabas has the snippets of the original teachings but like the other gospels has been tainted by unknown men who have added and taken away from the true words.
Thirdly, Gospel of Barnabas wasn't a bible by itself. It was a piece of what was omitted from the bible. As to whether they should follow it or their other gospels, it is for them to weigh the evidence and study both while seeking guidance and an open mind. I'm a Muslim so my job Is to call them to Islam and show the corruption spread by man. Not necessarily tell them which part of the corruption to take a bite out of.
Fourthly, the Gospel of Barnabas does hold the belief that the prophet Muhammad was the final messenger of God but it makes the serious mistake of saying he is the Messiah. Every Muslim knows that Isa (Jesus) is the Messiah. It also states there was not a crucifixation, that God is one and takes out the original sin. But just Because it states truth inside the teaches does not make its authenticity any more than the other gospels. To say so is to go against the Islamic view that isa (pbuh) is the Messiah.
Allah knows best
