Understanding the Background of the New Testament

Understanding The Background Of The New Testament

Introduction

               It is imperative Christians understand the background of the New Testament and applied it in their daily life for historical and cultural insight. Also, such knowledge enables believers and the non-believers of our moment to understand the core insights of the Scriptures. As for myself, the reading of the assignment has allowed me to understand the consequences of researching the cultural and historical perspectives for the primary reason that it affects the interpretation. However, this assignment has provided awareness.

            Even though, the Bible was written in ancient times; it embodies several happenings in today’s society, which is reflected on/off social media, television and the news. On the other hand, Jesus’ works are transformed into lively and significant meaning, so the historically- and culturally-formed foundation provides spiritual guidance. Importantly, the New Testament's culture played a significant role that offers lessons, values and habits of the people during this epic era. Moreover, in 2 Timothy 2:15 expresses the importance of studying the Bible and patterning the works of God into our lives.

Conclusion

            However, thanks to the extraordinary works of Jesus, God stirred up the way of thinking of those old-fashioned ways and rituals. To sum up, the New Testament delivers explanations, consequences, a new reality and inspiration through Jesus's revelation and information provided by the writers. Likewise, the New Testament eloquently illustrates a different viewpoint, as well as the life-changing answers of Jesus’s coming and promises that are announced so eloquently throughout the New Testament. To God be the Glory, Amen!
