4  Gospels books (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John)
 Acts of the Apostles
14 Epistles of Paul

 The earliest known complete list of the 27 books of the New Testament is found in a letter written by Athanasius, a 4th-century bishop of Alexandria, dated to 367 AD. The 27-book New Testament was first formally canonized during the councils of Hippo (393) and Carthage (397) in North Africa.

NEW BEGINNING

As children, many of us would have learned about the amazing transformation of a caterpillar into a beautiful butterfly. The ability of the caterpillar is limited. They can only crawl and not fly. Caterpillar are stubby, fleshy and some are hairy. Your life can be like a caterpillar today. But the Lord God who created us, can transform our life and make us be a blessing to so many people around us. All we must do is submit our self in God’s hands . To become a butterfly, the caterpillar must fall apart completely, decompose down to its very essence, and literally dies. In the same way for us to go to the next level, there are certain things in us that should die, in other words our flesh must die.

Colossians 3: 5-10 says “Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly natur

LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS

Just imagine this world without light: no sun, moon, stars or any lamps, candles or torchlight. We know that we cannot do anything that is productive, good or right when it is dark, nor do we like to live in the darkness. We can see the physical darkness with our human eyes and there is a spiritual darkness too. Lighting a lamp or candle will get rid of the darkness. But have you ever thought how to get rid of the spiritual darkness? The answer for this is JESUS . Around 4 B.C there lived a man named JESUS: ·        He was fully God and fully man. ·        He was with God from the beginning (before the creation/foundation of the world). ·        All things were made through him. ·        He was conceived by the Holy Spirit (Spirit of God) and born of a virgin. ·        He is the one and only begotten SON OF GOD. He lived on this earth for about 33 and a half years. When He walked on this earth, He spoke these words, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in dark

Ephesians 1:1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, Paul chose to do the will of God when he was in prison. When he wrote the epistle of Ephesians he imprisoned by the Romans. His situation or circumstances didn't stop Him from doing the will of God Are we focused to do the will of God or focused on the problems or the challenges that we are facing? 1.GIVE THANKS IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES: In everything give thanks: for this is t he will of God . When we start to give thanks the situation will start to change. When we start to thank and praise God for His goodness and His mercies and His love and His grace, the prison doors will start to open.God will make a way for us in wilderness when we start to give thanks to the Lord. Giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ Ephesians 5:20 In everything give thanks: f or this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 Just look at the life o
