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

But the book of Revelation is profoundly meaningful and applicable to our lives today as followers of Jesus.

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?

These 3 New Testament books by different authors confirm the life, teachings, miracles, and spirituality of Jesus's life. The word “synoptic” comes from the Greek word "synoptikos", and means “able to be seen together.” The word "gospel", means "good story", and is a combination of Latin evangelium and Greek euangelion (originally meaning "good news" or "good telling"). Even though they're each unique, the gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke share their own versions of many of the same portions of the life of Christ, often in the same order and with similar wording, but nuanced differences.

Often seen as the author of timeless Christian theology, Paul himself heatedly maintained that he lived and worked in history's closing hours. His letters propel his listeners into two ancient worlds, one Jewish, one pagan. The first was incandescent with apocalyptic hopes, expecting God through his messiah to fulfill his ancient promises of redemption to Israel. The second teemed with ancient actors, not only human but also divine: angry superhuman forces, jealous demons, and hostile cosmic gods.

John Shelby Spong, best-selling author and popular proponent of a modern, scholarly, and authentic Christianity, argues that this last gospel to be written was misinterpreted by the framers of the fourth-century creeds to be a literal account of the life of Jesus when in fact it is a literary, interpretive retelling of the events in Jesus' life through the medium of fictional characters, from Nicodemus and Lazarus to the "Beloved Disciple."

At twenty-nine, she became an Augustinian nun and continued to have visions and stigmata. In her visions, she recounted scenes from the life of Christ, which she seemed to have witnessed.

In this verse-by-verse study of 2 Corinthians, Skip Heitzig teaches about the purpose of our sufferings and how we can be Jesus' hands and feet in the midst of trials and difficulties.

Paul's answering letter provided a clear statement of the doctrine of justification by grace through faith alone and has played a strategic role in the history of the church. In this verse-by-verse study of Galatians, Skip Heitzig explores the freedom we have in Christ.
