New Testament

Christian Scripture Written in Greek Testament = agreement New Testament contains stories and teaching about a new agreement between God and people based on the intervention of Jesus Contains 27 books - 4 sections Gospels (means Good News) - 4 Acts of the Apostles Epistles (letters) - 21 Book of Revelation

Synoptic = together Synoptic Gospels = Matthew, Mark, Luke John tell his story from a different perspective

The story of God’s plan began in the Old Testament, and the story is finished in the New Testament. The Old Testament tells that God’s Son, Jesus, would come in the future. The New Testament tells that Jesus was born and lived on earth.

Prophecy It is amazing that God’s prophets were able to predict things that would happen many years later. God spoke to those prophets. Then the prophets told God’s message to the people.

Horoscopes Many people today want to know what will happen in the future. They read their horoscope in the newspaper or go to a fortune teller. Read your horoscope- does it always come true?

But these predictions are never 100% accurate. Why? Because they are not from God. We can depend on God’s Word, the Bible. The words in the Bible are true.

Prophecy Old Testament predictions come true in the New Testament Here are some examples of Old Testament prophecies and New Testament verses. These verses tell us that the prophecies really happened. Please take time to find these verses in your Bible and read them.
