Are you interested in how to study the New Testament? The New Testament is vitally important to Christians as it depicts the teachings, life, and death of Jesus and the beginnings of Christianity.
At Global University, we offer two in-depth paths to studying the history and writings of the New Testament, and we’d like to share them with you in today’s blog post.
Why Study the New Testament?
The New Testament contains eyewitness accounts of the life and teachings of Jesus. To follow a Christ-led path, we need to familiarize ourselves with what Jesus did and taught while he was on Earth.
While the Old Testament is important as a means to understand God, His creation, and His commandments, the New Testament lays the foundation for Christianity through the account of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.
