Publisher's Synopsis
Do you want to know more about the New Testament and Christianity but don't know where to begin? The readings in this short book are only about one-fourth of the text of the New Testament, but they will properly and comprehensively introduce you or a loved one or friend to the main events and doctrines of Christianity. These readings are carefully selected from eight of the twenty-seven books of the New Testament: Matthew, Luke, John, Acts, Romans, Ephesians, James, and Revelation. These readings are exact extractions from a reliable modern translation. Only minimal, well-marked explanatory comments have been added to orient the reader to the context or role of each passage. This arrangement is intended to help you, or someone you care about, experience the Gospel story directly, without distracting denominational opinion. The Biblical texts in this book are part of all Christian Bibles, whether Protestant, Catholic, or Orthodox.
