Overview
Each individual book of the New Testament is outlined in the 32 charts, as well as various themes traced, including: the Sermon on the Mount; the chronology of the life of the Apostle Paul; the Parables of the Lord Jesus; the message to the Ephesian elders; the trials of the Lord before the various tribunals prior to the cross, to name but a few.
This hardback edition, with fully-illustrated, gloss-colour artwork, is a beautiful tabletop production, a fantastic resource for new believers and Bible scholars alike, and will make an ideal gift.
“For those who like to get the ‘big picture’ from a chart or graph, there is ample here to satisfy, in the charts which summarise each New Testament book. For others who prefer a more in-depth commentary approach, the written material, affording the main themes of the book under consideration, provides a wealth of material.
In short, the outlines and explanatory notes are a rich mine waiting for the diligent student to immerse himself and uncover greater wealth for himself. The contents and layout of this book assure its usefulness for the student of Scripture at every level of study. So, enter its pages, stand in awe with me, and profit from the wealth of material that has been provided.
Author Bio
John Grant was born in Glasgow in 1942 and trusted the Lord as his Saviour when he was eight years old. He was married to Ann and they had four children. He attended the local Gospel Hall in Renfrewshire where he spent much of his time preaching and teaching whilst having a busy career in IT. He felt the Lord was calling him to give up his secular employment and serve the Lord full time and in 1991 he was commended by his local assembly to full time service.
In addition to being active across the UK, John’s teaching and preaching took him to many different parts of the world including Canada, the USA, Japan, Korea and Sri Lanka.
He was editor of the Believer’s Magazine for seventeen years and authored two volumes of the “What The Bible Teaches” Ritchie Commentary Series, and also wrote on contemporary issues in the Family Series, along with the book “Living For God”.
John went home to be with the Lord he had served so faithfully in January 2020.
