This is the Gospel of Jesus Christ told to us by God’s messenger Luke.  The word “Gospel” means “Good News,” and in this book we learn all about the life of Jesus Christ, how he was miraculously born, how he performed many miracles, but how sinful people conspired to put him to death.  Yet after three days he rose from the dead to show that he has victory over sin, death, hell, evil spirits, and the devil.  This is the good news, that Jesus has come into the world to save sinful people like us.

Genesis

The first book of the Bible and the first book of the Tawrat.  It speaks about creation, and it describes the lives of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Ishmael, Jacob, Joseph, and others.

 

 

Exodus

The second book of the Bible.  This is the account of how God rescued his people from slavery in Egypt and delivered them from the hand of Pharaoh.  The book gets its name from God (through Moses) « bringing out » his people from Egypt.  God then assembles his people and gives them his law, which is a reflection of his character.  God’s law is meant to point people to the Messiah.

 

Leviticus

The third book of the Bible.  This book gets its name from the family of Levi, one of the 12 sons of Jacob, whom God chose to serve as priests and to help the people to worship God.  One of the jobs of the priests was to offer sacrifices to God, which would allow sinful humans to come near to a holy God.

 

 

Numbers

The fourth book of the Bible.  This book describes the wanderings of Beni Israel in the desert as they make their way to the promised land.  Here we see the rebellion of many people against God and how God reveals his holiness.

 

 

Deuteronomy

The fifth book of the Bible and the final book of the Tawrat.  In this book Moses gives a second statement of the law (hence the book’s name "second law") and bids his farewell to the people before they go in to the promised land.  God promises to raise up another prophet like Moses to whom all his people will listen.

Acts of the Apostles

This film (taken directly word for word from the book of the Bible called Acts of the Apostles) tells the story of the Apostles, messengers whom Jesus sent into the world to proclaim the good news that we can be saved from our sins by what Jesus has done for us.  We hear about the mighty acts of the Holy Spirit that God did through the apostles.  Wherever they went, people believed and formed churches, that is, groups of people who love each other and worship God through Jesus Christ.  Acts is the story of the church, its birth, its growth, its trials, and its lessons for today.
