WHY IS THE BIBLE SPLIT INTO TWO PARTS?OLD TESTAMENTTheOldTestament(OT)contains39booksthatrecordeventsand“testify”orpointtoJesus’coming. It iscalledtheOldTestamentbecause it involvesaperiodoftimeundertheOldCovenantthatGod had with His people. The old covenant (or agreement) wasbasically“IfyoufollowmycommandsIwillcontinuetoblessyou.”AsacrificewasmadeandbloodwasshedonaregularbasistomakeupforfallingshortofkeepingallofGod’scommandments.
TheOldTestamentbeginswiththeoriginoftheworld,butquicklyfocuses onGod’s dealingswith one particular family (Abraham’s)whobecomesthenationofIsrael.MuchoftheremainderoftheOTisthecontinuingsagaoftheIsraelitescyclingbetweendisobedienceandreturntoGodoverandoveragainandGod’scontinuedpursuitandloveforHischildrenthroughallofit.
The end of the Old Testament contains warnings from God’smessengers (prophets) to the Israelites to stop ignoringGod andreturntoHim.TheyalsoforetellofthecomingMessiah,TheChrist!
NEW TESTAMENTTheNewTestament(NT)isallabouttheNewCovenant-throughJesus’deathandresurrectionhumanity’ssinsareforgivenandweare given a new life. No longer are animal sacrifices necessary.Although the lawof theOld Testament is still beneficial to live ahealthy, full, committed life, the grace offered to us in the NewTestamentgivesustheredemptionthatwecouldneverobtainonourown. Instead,throughChrist,Godhasonceandforall takencareofoursinfulnesssothatwecanbeinperfectrelationshipwithHim.Allweneedtodoisaccepttheinvitation.

TheNew Testament contains 27 books that record the events ofJesus’ life and ministry and how Christianity has spread. It haspracticalwaysforthewholeworldtoexperiencecloserelationshipwithGodandrighteousliving.ItstartswithfourbookscalledtheGospels (Matthew,Mark, Luke and John). The Book of Acts thenshowsushowtheearlychurchstarted.ThelargestportionoftheNewTestamentislettersfromearlychurchleaderstonewchurchesinthearea.TheselettersarestillveryapplicabletohowweshouldoperateasacommunityofChristfollowerstoday.ThefinalNTbookisRevelation—abookwhichgivesusglimpsesintoChrist’ssecondcomingandGod’sfutureplansforHischurch.
WHY ARE THE BOOKS IN THE BIBLE NAMED WHAT THEY ARE?Thenamesof thebooksare justtitles for the66differentpiecesofwriting. Somearetitledbycontent(i.e.Exodus,Lamentations,andActs).Othersaretitledbyauthor(i.e.Daniel,Matthew,Mark,etc.)ortheoriginalrecipientoftheletters.(i.e.Romans,Corinthians,Thessalonians,etc.)
WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THE “AUTHORS WERE INSPIRED”?MostChrist followersbelievethattheBiblecametous fromGodHimself,but thatHeusedhumanauthors togiveusHismessagethroughthepresenceand inspirationofHisSpirit. However,Goddidnot justdictate thewritings;HealloweduniquepersonalitiesandmanystylesofwritingtoshinethroughwhilerevealingHimself,Hiswill andHis purposes. The result is an ageless treasure thatspeakstoeveryone.
“Aboveall,youmustunderstandthatnoprophecyofScripturecameaboutbytheprophet’sowninterpretationofthings.Forprophecyneverhaditsorigininthehumanwill,butprophets,thoughhuman,spoke fromGodas theywerecarriedalongby theHolySpirit.”2Peter1:20-21

Old Testament The 39 older books ofthe Bible that “testifyto” and record events beforeJesuswasborn ..BC—beforeChrist
It is called the OTbecause it is the “olddeal” that God had with peoplebeforeJesus
Beginswiththeoriginofthe world, but quicklyfocusesonGod’sdealingswith one particularfamily (Abraham’s) whobecomes the nation ofIsrael
To save the humanrace from its sin andwhat should be the consequences, Godmakes a covenant , or deal,withthepeopleofIsrael
The essence of thisdeal is that he would be their God and bless them. In return theywere to honor him and beexamples to the restof the world. God gavethem commandments to live by.
The rest of the OTfocuses on the 1500yearperiodofhistoryofancientIsrael.
The Israelites fall awayand return to God many times in this history,however God remains faithful and honors hispromises.
The very end of OT ismade up of messagesfrom God’s messengers(prophets) who warnedpeople to stop ignoringGodandgetbackinline,and foretold of Christ’scoming(thenewdeal).

New Testament 27 books that “testifyto” and record the eventsof Jesus’ lifeandministryand the spreadofChristianity
AD (Anno Domini—theyear of the Lord) I use“afterdeath”tohelpmeremember, but it is really afterbirth.
NT focuses on the newdeal (or covenant)between God the whole world, rather than justthenationofIsrael
This new deal meansthat the old deal was no longer needed andthere is a new set ofcircumstances
Because of Jesus’ life,death and resurrectionanyonecanberightwithGod, not by keepingcommandments but by honoringJesusChristasLord.
NT begins with theGospels—these arethe first four books(Matthew, Mark, LukeandJohn)whichtellthestoryofJesus—hisbirth,life, teachings,miracles,deathandresurrection.
The book of Acts tellsabout the disciples andthegrowthofthechurchrightafterJesusdied.
The later and largerpart of the NT is madeup mostly of lettersbetween an importantChristian leader namedPaul and the newChristianchurches.
20
The names of the books are just titles for the 66 different pieces of writing
Sometitlesarebased on the content in the book
examplesareExodus,LamentationsorActs
Sometitlesarebased on the author—suchasDaniel,Matthew,1and2Peter
Sometitlesarenamed after the group of peoplewhoreceivedtheletterorwriting—examplesareRomans,Corinthians,1and2Timothy

Our reason for creating this study was simple. To provide everyone the opportunity to know Jesus or to know him better. Is there anyone here that can share how your life has been impacted by spending time in God’s word? Is there anyone that is ready to believe and commit to knowing Him better every day and wants more direction or support?
