The Holy Bible
The Holy Bible

The Bible testifies of Jesus Christ and has influenced and sustained millions of His followers. It is a collection of sacred writings containing God’s revelations and accounts of His dealings with His children.

The historical accounts in the Bible cover many centuries, from the time of Adam through the death of the Apostles. Likewise, the books of the Bible were written by and about prophets who lived at various times in the history of the world.

As you probably know, the Bible is divided into two sections: the Old Testament and the New Testament.

The Old Testament contains sacred texts written prior to the birth of Christ. Many prophecies in the Old Testament foretell the coming of a Saviour and Redeemer.

The New Testament tells of the life of that Saviour and Redeemer, who is Jesus Christ. It also tells of the establishment of His original Church.
