The Sacred Scriptures

+ +

The Holy Bible comprises sixty-six books penned by approximately forty authors over fifteen centuries—yet unified by one divine Author.The Hebrew Scriptures (תנ״ך, TaNaKh) consist of תּוֹרָה (Torah, Law), נְבִיאִים (Nevi'im, Prophets), and כְּתוּבִים (Ketuvim, Writings). The Greek New Testament (καινὴ διαθήκη) records Christ's incarnation, the establishment of His church, and apostolic teaching. These sacred writings preserve God's progressive self-revelation to humanity: His character, His purposes, and His redemptive plan accomplished through Jesus Christ. The Scriptures consist of two testaments, the Old and the New, which together form a coherent testimony to the gospel.

+ +

The Old Testament contains God's covenant with Israel, from creation through the prophetic age. It includes the Law of Moses (Torah), which establishes God's covenant and moral order; the Historical Books, which narrate Israel's history from conquest to exile and restoration; the Wisdom Literature, which explores the deepest questions of human existence; and the Prophets, who called Israel to faithfulness and foretold the coming Messiah.

+ +

The New Testament presents the fulfillment of Old Testament promises in Jesus Christ. The four Gospels provide comprehensive testimony to Christ's life, death, and resurrection from different perspectives. Acts chronicles the early church's establishment and growth. The Epistles expound Christian doctrine and provide pastoral instruction. Revelation unveils the consummation of God's redemptive plan.
