New Testament English

Why would anyone want to study the prophet named Isaiah? Afterall, he lived centuries ago, in a time nothing like our own days, or were they? Can a person or nation benefit from the mistakes made by others or is it just better to replicate them for ourselves? Ignoring history is certainly the right of a person or nation, and by the looks of things today we are skilled at doing that. But if you are tired of the uncertainty and chaos that is our new norm, then may I suggest the book of Isaiah has something to say to us today. Won’t you join me to see what that is?

For the most part Abraham's children—Jews, Christians, and Muslims—are strangers to one another, knowing what someone has told them about the other.

Still, they have much in common. Robert Flaherty has collected quotations from the three children of Abraham, primarily from the Hebrew Scriptures, the New Testament, and the Qur’an, that emphasize what the three have in common. For each day of the year, there is ...

Many of us tend to live as though Jesus represents the "spiritual part" of our lives. We don't clearly see how he relates to the rest of our experiences, desires, and habits. How can Jesus, the Bible, and Christianity become more than a compartmentalized part of our lives? Highly regarded New Testament scholar and popular teacher Jonathan Pennington argues that we need to recover the lost biblical image of Jesus as the one true philosopher who teaches us how to experience the fullness of our humanity in the kingdom of God.

The books of the Bible were written at different times by different authors over a period of approximately 1,500 years from around 1400BC through 90AD. The Old Testament was written in Biblical Hebrew excluding the Books written during "the Chaldean captivity" such as Daniel and Ezra which were written in "Biblical Aramaic" during the "Chaldean captivity". Many of the Books of the Old Testament bear the names of the Prophets who authored them. Moses compiled the earlier parts of Genesis and directly authored the remaining portion.

In Letters from Jesus, Paul Ellis unpacks the astonishing good news found in these ancient letters. In them he finds answers to tough questions.

Authors like Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy, Acharya S and Kenneth Humphreys are quick to make claims that Jesus is a fiction but only present a limited amount of evidence to substantiate this claim.

Accordingly, this is a book for anyone interested in pondering the evidence and assembling a more complete picture of the historical Jesus.
