The New Testament is the second major division of the The Bible, consisting of 27 books that focus on the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, as well as the Early Christian Church. Written primarily in Koine Greek between the 1st and 2nd centuries CE, it includes four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), the Acts of the Apostles, various letters or epistles—most notably those attributed to the Apostle Paul—and the apocalyptic Book of Revelation. Serving as the theological and ethical foundation for Christianity, the New Testament addresses themes like salvation, the nature of God, morality, and the role of the Church, and has been subject to numerous interpretations, translations, and scholarly analyses over the centuries.
The Christian Scriptures include the The Bible, both The Old Testament and The New Testament, and revered works of Christian Theology, The History of The Christian Church and The Lives of the Saints.
