A brief summary of the books in the New Testament.

The Gospel books... The historical and spiritual identification of Jesus, the son of God, his words, deeds and promises... death and resurrection.

The books of Acts... The only detailed accounts of scriptural salvation and the founding of the church. The first history and missionary journeys of those who preached the gospel of Jesus Christ, how the spirit was recognised by signs and wonders, and the opposition/persecution they faced.

The Epistles... Letters and some prophecies to churches/leaders in various stages of development. They deal with all life issues, how to maintain faith and sound doctrine through the power of God, for every true believer.
