J.B. Phillips New Testament

"Paul, writing from Ephesus, where he stayed for more than two years... [to] the Christian church at Corinth, which was then the largest town in Greece... It would have been full of a cosmopolitan crowd, and even in those days a byword for immorality." From the introduction. 

The book of Jude. Released in Letters to Young Churches.

Read by Peter Croft, youngest grandson of the late J.B. Phillips.

Here we have a charming intimate letter written by Paul to a dear friend. Philemon's slave Onesimus... had run away from him and come under Paul's influence in Rome. He not only became a Christian but became very dear to Paul.

It is quite plain that in this Gospel we are breathing a very different atmosphere from that of Matthew, Mark and Luke... In John's Gospel the discourses are long and different in style; they deal almost entirely with the great themes of life, light, love, truth and Christ's relationship with the Father. There are many similes and metaphors but no parables at all.
