Reading: Hebrew 1:1-3
1:1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
1:2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
In The Old Testament, God spoke to reveal Himself through many ways and through His Prophets. But in The New Testament God speaks through His Son, Jesus Christ. Through the message of His Son, his apostles, his ministries, his churches and his disciples.
The New Testament consist of 4 (four) big parts:
1. Gospel (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John)
2. The Book of Acts
3. Pauline Epistles (Roman to Philemon)
4. Non-Pauline Epistles or General Epistles (Hebrew to Revelation)
GOSPELS
Gospel consists of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. From Jesus births, life, teachings, parables, miracles and wonders, his cross, his death, his resurrection and his ascending to heaven.
Matthew says that He is the King of all kings. Mark says that He become servant in his life and death. Luke says that He is the Son of man who comes to save the lost. John says that He is the Son of God. He is The Word of God and He is God.
THE BOOK OF ACTS
The book of Acts contains of the story of the apostles of Jesus, his churches and his disciples after his resurrection and ascending to heaven. Also about the Holy Spirit that working in the life of disciples or Christian as promised by Jesus beforehand.
It was written by Luke who accompanied Paul to take care of his health during the journey of mission and even up to prison.
PAULINE EPISTLES
Paul wrote 13 (thirteen) letters. He wrote to the church of Romans (1 letter), Corinthians (2 letters), Galatians (1 letter), Ephesians (1 letter), Philippians (1 letter), Colossians (1 letter), Thessalonian (2 letters), Timothy (2 letters), Titus (1 letter), and Philemon (1 letter).
All Paul's letters contain doctrines, teaching, advises, warns, encouragements, wisdoms, principals and many other words or text that refers and focuses to Christ Jesus. About he himself, his life, his cross, his death, his resurrection, and the meaning of it such as: redemption, salvation, value or principles in solving problems between believers, marriages, etc. In another words, Jesus Christ is the center of the entire of Paul writings.
GENERAL EPISTLES (NON-PAULINE EPISTLES)
General Epistles consisting of Hebrew, James, 1 & 2 Peter, 1, 2 and 3 John, Jude, and Revelation. It contains and focuses on Jesus Christ, his churches, and his disciples.
Why we accept The New Testament as The Word of God?
Without ignoring God who protect the New Testament through or by the church fathers, today we are also able to see that all writings that is not centered or focused on the true Jesus Christ is not The Word of God.
The writings that is not in one body of doctrine of the Bible, which is conflicted or against the Bible, The Old Testament and The New Testament, is not the Word of God. Beside that, it is important to see who the writer is and the authenticity of the writings. And the church father did!
