Introduction to the NT studies

These pages are provided to help you understand the context of each Book. The content section within each is designed to help you get a feel for each text in order to guide you as to which Book, or which section of a Book you should read. It is in no way designed to replace the Biblical text itself, and in no way can it do so - it is simply meant to guide you onto whatever reading would be best for you.

Each of the pages takes a summarised look at the authorship, date and content of the relevant texts of the NT. Also, certain pages contain other helpful resources specific to that text (e.g., Bible study questions, lists of other good resources relevant to that Book, and what appears to be the overall message of the Book, etc.).
