The Bible is the lifeblood of our faith. It is the divinely revealed story of God’s interaction with the human family.
In the Old Testament, we hear about God’s plan to gather a nation together. God establishes his covenant with Israel and, through it, prepares the human family for the great gift of salvation in Christ Jesus.
In the New Testament, we hear how God’s plan and promise to Israel is fulfilled in the person of his Son, Jesus. Early Christians proclaimed their faith in writing about their experiences with Jesus. They share with us information about his earthly life, his teachings, his miracles and, most importantly, his suffering, death and resurrection. The New Testament also highlights the work of the early Christian Church from the time of Pentecost through the end of the 1st century.
“Ignorance of the Scriptures is ignorance of Christ.”
