God started creation by His word that created the universe. In God’s second creation, He started with the second perfect man, Jesus, and ends this creation with a new heavens and a new earth. (2 Peter 3)

Scripture passages that reveal how our talents and gifts are expected to produce a certain kind of fruit not out of fear of punishment but out of desire for service. (Matthew 25; Matthew 20)

God’s new people are saved by grace and not by works but some are confused about judgment based on works. A living faith produces good works just like a fruit tree produces fruit. (John 5; Matthew 25; Revelation 20; Romans 8 )

Since people died before Christ’s return, one of the questions asked was what happens to believers who die before the final resurrection the dead comes. This question is answered in this study. (2 Corinthians 5; Luke 16; Mark 12; Philippians 1)

Though the new people of God now live out their faith in various forms on earth, an event will take place in time where all the dead will be raised. Our resurrected life will have a new body. (1 Corinthians 15)

For the new people to carry out the purpose of the church, they need gifts from the Holy Spirit. The gifts are given to help people do their work for the Lord in the world. (1 Corinthians 12; Ephesians 4; Romans 12; Gaatians 5; Romans 5; 1 Corinthians 13 )

The new meal that the new people of God share is also a meal in which Jesus is present. There are cautions about how we should eat this meal with other believers. (1 Corinthians 10, 11, 12)

Jesus gave his new people a new meal. The purpose of this meal is to assure those eating of the forgiveness of their sins. This meal is contrasted to the Passover meal that was eaten by Jews before they escaped the slavery to Pharaoh. (Matthew 26; Exodus 12)

The new people of God have as their purpose to tell others what Jesus has done for them. These people are witnesses to the good news they have seen and heard. Jesus has commanded the new people to go into all the world and bring everyone His message of good news. (Matthew 28; Mark 16; Acts 1; John 20; Luke 4)
