The Last Kingdom, Part 5: Unstoppable // Andy Stanley

The Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John provide a comprehensive portrait of Jesus Christ. Matthew, Mark, and Luke are known as the Synoptic Gospels due to their similar narrative order and shared content. John's Gospel is distinct and includes much unparalleled information. Each Gospel was written for different audiences and emphasizes different aspects of Jesus' mission and teachings.

This book provides a thorough and accessible introduction to the New Testament, covering its historical background, literary characteristics, and theological themes. It is tailored for students and includes detailed explanations and analyses to facilitate a deeper understanding of the New Testament texts.

This book is an in-depth analysis and commentary on the Book of Isaiah, edited by A. B. Davidson. It provides a detailed examination of the prophetic text, including historical context, theological insights, and linguistic analysis. Published in 1902, it is a significant work in the field of biblical studies.

The Old Testament is composed of several distinct sections: the Pentateuch (the first five books), the Historical Books, the Wisdom Books, and the Prophetic Books. It includes accounts of creation, the early history of humanity, the covenant between God and the Israelites, and the history of the Israelites from their conquest of Canaan to their exile in Babylon. The books were written over several centuries and include various genres such as history, poetry, wisdom literature, and prophecy.

The Book of Acts is the fifth book of the New Testament and serves as a sequel to the Gospel of Luke. It chronicles the history of the early Christian church, beginning with the ascension of Jesus Christ and ending with Paul's imprisonment in Rome. The book is divided into two main sections: the first focuses on the ministry of Peter in Jerusalem and Samaria (Acts 1–12), and the second follows Paul's missionary journeys throughout the Roman Empire (Acts 13–28). It highlights the transition of the gospel message from a Jewish audience to the Gentiles, the empowerment of believers by the Holy Spirit, and the growth of the church despite persecutions. The book also explores the relationship between Christians and the Roman Empire, showing how Christians could obey both God and the civil authorities.
