Inhaltsangabe

"The New Testament is worthy of a lifetime of study, as it answers the most significant questions people have asked," says Paul Benware.

What is the purpose of life? Is there any real hope? What is God like? Can I be freed from guilt and sin?

Jesus Christ is the only answer to these questions. He is the key to God's new covenant, the central theme of the New Testament. In order to fully appreciate the new covenant, you must explore the lives and times of Christ and the New Testament writers.

Survey of the New Testament organizes this essential information around the anticipation, institution, and fulfillment of the new covenant. Dr. Benware includes, along with his book-by-book study of the 27 New Testament books, a chronological study of the life of Christ, a look at political forces and ideologies of the first-century Roman world, and a glimpse into the inter-testamental period. To clarify the order and pattern of the New Testament, Dr. Benware links each epistle to its historical base, the book of Acts. Thirty helpful charts have been included as well.

The New Testament continues the story begun in the Old Testament. It is the marvelous climax of God's inspired revelation to mankind. In the Old Testament, God had promised to bring blessing and redemption to man through the messiah, and the New Testament is the record of God's doing just that. The New Testament is much smaller than the Old Testament and it covers a period of time far shorter than that of the Old. But the New Testament covers that most significant era in the history of man-those years when God became man and brought salvation to a lost mankind. The NT is worthy of a lifetime of study, as it answers the most significant questions people have asked: What is the purpose of life? Is there any real hope? What is God like? Can I be freed from guilt and sin? Am I loved?
