New Bible Study

The New Testament tells the extraordinary and moving story of the life of Christ and the founding of His Church. This generous selection from the texts which lie at the root of 2,000 years of European civilization ranges between the powerful sincerity of the Evangelists and the ecstatic vision of John's New Jerusalem.

In Jesus, the One and Only, Beth Moore introduces you to an intimate God in an up-close and personal portrait of the life of Jesus the Messiah. This is far more than just a work on the life of Christ. Jesus, the One and Only is a romance, and you are invited to become part of it. As He has done in the past, God will use Beth's words to woo you into falling in love with Jesus of Nazareth.

Did you know that every author of the NT was a Jew (with the exception of Luke, but he was a disciple of Paul). Furthermore, the New Testament had not been compiled when letters were circulated that later became the New Testament, so the only Holy Writings available to the New Testament Jewish authors were what Christians call the Old Testament. Therefore, does it surprise you that the New Testament is steeped in Hebraic thought and contains nearly a thousand quotations and allusions from the Hebrew Scriptures?

L'"Épître aux Romains" est une lettre du Nouveau Testament envoyée par l'apôtre Paul à l'Église de Rome. L'épître aux Romains est certainement la plus importante des épîtres de Paul non seulement par sa taille (c'est la plus longue) mais surtout pour son contenu et son enseignement. Les idées développées dans cette épître forment le fondement de la doctrine des Églises chrétiennes au sujet de la justification par la foi. Cette épître se situe dans deux registres. D'une part, il s'agit d'une lettre adressée à une communauté rencontrant des difficultés.

In our politically unstable day of "wars and rumors of wars" (Mark13:7), we can all understand the quest for stability. But there is only one source of rock solid security. There was a time for rules and sacrifices. Then Christ came as the perfect, spotless Lamb to atone for sin once and for all. Respected pastor Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe will show you that by focusing on the reality of the unseen first, an overwhelming desire for intimate friendship with God will follow.

This book welcomes listeners to appreciate the origins of Christianity within the Roman world in which early Christianity got its first foothold. It does that by immersing listeners in the life and culture of two thriving first-century towns—Pompeii and Herculaneum. Those towns (destroyed in the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 CE) act as showpieces of the world into which the early Christian movement was spreading.

In Final Warning, beloved pastor and best-selling author Carl Gallups explores the stunning visions of the Apostle John as found in the seven trumpets of Revelation and overlays them on major events in the 20th and 21st centuries.

Does the rebirth of Israel indicate the last days are upon us?

"L'Apocalypse" ou "Apocalypse de Jean" ou encore "Livre de la Révélation", également appelé "Révélation de Jésus-Christ" suivant les premiers mots du texte, est le dernier livre du Nouveau Testament. Le texte, usant d'un langage symbolique, d'essence prophétique et dont l'auteur se réclame d'Ézéchiel, se présente ainsi comme une "révélation de Jésus-Christ" qui dévoile à Jean "quel est le sens divin de son époque et comment le peuple de Dieu sera bientôt délivré".

Marcus J.

Dan Brown's International best-seller The DaVinci Code has raised many questions in the minds of readers. The DaVinci Code, in blurring the lines between fact and fiction, popularizes the speculations and contentions of numerous more serious books that are also attracting wide attention. How should we respond to such claims that we now have documents that reveal secrets about Jesus, secrets long suppressed by the church and other religious institutions?

La "1ère épître à Timothée" est un livre du Nouveau Testament. Avec la deuxième épître à Timothée et l'épître à Tite, elle fait partie des trois "épîtres pastorales" ou "trito-pauliniennes", dues à des disciples tardifs de l'apôtre Paul. Paul avait laissé Timothée à Éphèse, dans l'intention d'y retourner plus tard. Mais il pensait qu'il risquait d'être retardé. La lettre est adressée au disciple Timothée, peut-être de Macédoine, pour lui donner des conseils et des encouragements sur l'accomplissement de son ministère.

Many Christians are intimidated by the book of Revelation. They are convinced that it contains nothing but bad news. And they are further turned off by the great variety of bizarre interpretations of the book. In this book, Dr. Reagan explains that Revelation contains only good news for those who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and savior. Further, he proves that the book can be understood by any Christian who is willing to accept its plain sense meaning.

Who was Jesus? Historical sources portray a person who was complex, multi-layered, and often contradictory to the tidy portrait that much of modern Christianity paints him as. Even the gospel accounts render him as both judge and healer, teacher and temple, servant and savior. A Doubter's Guide to Jesus is a persuasive and often challenging investigation into the historical figure found in the earliest sources. These sources, which include references both direct and indirect - from Roman, Jewish, and Christian accounts - offer us more than simple evidence that Jesus existed.

The second book of Peter has long troubled biblical scholars and interpreters. Not only is its authorship debated, but it seems to predict an imminent Second Coming, making many dispensationalists claim that it can only be understood in light of modern events. In this study, Peter Leithart offers a preterist reading of the epistle, arguing that it describes first-century events and not the end of the world. At the same time, he maintains orthodoxy, avoiding hyper-preterism and affirming the epistle's authenticity.
