El '''Nuevo Testamento''' is a collection of twenty-seven books and letters, written by eyewitnesses and by people who attained testimony from eyewitnesses.<ref>[http://vimeo.com/21393890 Lecture with Dr. Peter Williams on the evidence that builds a case for eyewitness accounts in the New Testament] By Lanier Theological Library. Mar 23, 2011</ref> Being that the oldest extant manuscripts are in Greek and the context of [[hellenization]] that helped develop the culture of first century [[Palestine]], scholars have determined that the New Testament was originally written in Greek. Completed before 100 AD the emphasis of the New Testament is the [[life]], teachings, crucifixion, death, [[resurrection]] and gift of salvation of [[Jesus Christ|Jesus of Nazareth]]. There is also focus on the early [[history]] of the [[History of Christianity|Christian church]] within specifically the book of [[Acts]].
==Reading and Interpretation==
NT Wright, an influential New Testament scholar, paints a quick picture of the history of reading the New Testament in his book ''The New Testament and the People of God''. Wright recommends reading the New Testament as not only historical but theological, contexts enabling [[Christianity]] to maintain a practice of historical [[theology]]. However throughout the history of reading the NT there have been;
{{cquote|... four ways (pre-critical, historical, theological and postmodern readings) correspond very broadly to three movements within the history of Western culture in the last few centuries. The first belongs to the period before the Enlightenment of the eighteenth century; the second, to the major emphasis of the Enlightenment, sometimes known as 'modernism' or 'modernity'; the third, to a corrective on the second, still from within the Enlightenment worldview has begun to break up under questioning from many sides, and which has become known as 'postmodern.'<ref>NT Wright, ''The New Testament and the People of God'' (Fortress Press 1992), pg. 7</ref>|}}
==Apologetics==
There are two accepted methods proposed by biblical and specifically New Testament biblical scholarship that when followed serve as a type of historical bedrock from which to defend the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and uniqueness of the New Testament among ancient literature. There is firstly the minimal facts method with its pioneer Gary Habermas, recognized as a world authority on the resurrection of Jesus. Secondly there is what is called the general reliability method which is utilized to articulate a case for textual stability of the New Testament rather than the historicity of particular events within the life of Jesus.<ref>[http://www.garyhabermas.com/articles/crj_recentperspectives/crj_recentperspectives.htm Recent Perspectives on the Reliability of the Gospels] by Gary R. Habermas. Originally published in the Christian Research Journal / vol. 28, no. 1, 2005.</ref>
===Minimal facts method===
:''Main Article: [[Minimal facts method]]''
The minimal facts method is a historical apologetic that makes the case for the [[supernatural]] [[resurrection]] of [[Jesus Christ]]. The minimal facts method is also called the minimal facts approach and was pioneered in the 1970's by the philosopher, historian and prominent Christian apologist [[Gary Habermas|Gary R. Habermas]]. It is considered within specifically historical apologetics as a scholarly approach to establish specific reliability in the [[Bible]] showing the central doctrine of [[Christianity]] as historical fact.<ref>A historical fact is what historians consider knowable history; they do not necessarily mean it to be a logical proof.</ref>
===General reliability method===
:''Main Article: [[General reliability method]]''
The general reliability method is [[apologetics]] from [[textual criticism]] that focuses on the textual features of the New Testament. As ancient literature the NT is compared with other literature from which there are surviving manuscripts. Specific categories of chronological criteria relative to biblical and non-biblical manuscripts are compared. The method formulated during the late 19th and early 20th centuries as [[archeological]] discoveries brought to light the manuscript and therefore textual data necessary to reason methodically. The general reliability method is underpinned by the whole range of practices within the field of [[textual criticism]]. So much so is the scholarly field so important for the general reliability method that the methodology is sometimes referred to as simply textual criticism of the New Testament. What that naturally amounts to is a unique status for the texts of the NT. The general reliability method is still used today by Christians but sophisticated treatments by apologists regard it in light of what was pioneered in the 1970's by [[Gary Habermas]] called the [[minimal facts method]].
==Books of the New Testament==
There are several divisions of the New Testament which are the Gospels, Pauline epistles or letters, the general epistles and the final book of the Bible called Revelation.
===Gospels===
: ''Main Article: [[Gospels]]''
The word gospel [ˈɡɒspəl] derives from the Old English word ''gōdspell'' from ''gōd'', meaning "good" and ''spell'', meaning "message" or "news" - compare the Old Norse ''guthspjall'', the Old High German ''guotspell'' or the Germanic ''gutspeil''. Therefore the word gospel is the English translation of the Koine Greek ''εὐαγγέλιον'' (''euangelion'', ''εὖ eu'' "good" + ''ἄγγελος angelos'' "messenger"), Latinized ''evangelium''.<ref>The word "gospel" on Dictionary.com: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/gospel</ref><ref>[[Wikipedia:Good_news_(Christianity)|Good News]] By Wikipedia</ref> The ''Acts of the Apostles'' are a continuance of the gospel Luke, documenting the history of the early [[Christian]] church, beginning immediately following Jesus' death and [[resurrection]]. Of the authors, only [[Matthew]] and [[John]] had met Jesus; they were among His disciples during His earthly ministry. [[Mark]] was a companion of [[Peter]], and scholarship generally sees his gospel as the first to be written down approximately 65 AD. [[Luke]] is considered the author of both his gospel and the book of ''Acts'' and is generally referred to as Luke-Acts.
The kinds of material covered within the gospels in regard to the life and death of Jesus Christ are basically five types. They are; parables, [[miracle]] stories, pronouncement stories which are anecdotes that preserve the memory of something Jesus said, and were also very popular within the greater Greco-Roman world as well. Individual sayings are also part of the gospels but do not have narrative context like pronouncement stories. And then there are passion and [[resurrection]] narratives, which are covered in far more detail than any other types of material found in the gospels.<ref>Mark Allan Powell, ''Introducing the New Testament: A Historical, Literary, and Theological Survey'' (Baker Academic 2009), pgg. 85-92</ref>
The gospels are;
*[[Gospel of Matthew]]
*[[Gospel of Mark]]
*[[Gospel of Luke]]
*[[Gospel of John]]
There is also [[Acts of the Apostles]] which is usually taken in conjunction with Luke and referred to as Luke-Acts.
===Pauline Epistles===
: ''Main Article: [[Pauline epistles]]''
These are letters written to various early Christian communities by the Apostle Paul.
*[[Epistle to the Romans]]
*[[First Epistle to the Corinthians]]
*[[Second Epistle to the Corinthians]]
*[[Epistle to the Galatians]]
*[[Epistle to the Philippians]]
*[[First Epistle to the Thessalonians]]
*[[Second Epistle to the Thessalonians]]
*[[Epistle to the Ephesians]]
*[[Epistle to the Colossians]]
*[[First Epistle to Timothy]]
*[[Second Epistle to Timothy]]
*[[Epistle to Titus]]
*[[Epistle to Philemon]]
*[[Epistle to the Hebrews]]
===General Epistles===
: ''Main Article: [[General epistles]]''
*[[Epistle of James]]
*[[First Epistle of Peter]]
*[[Second Epistle of Peter]]
*[[First Epistle of John]]
*[[Second Epistle of John]]
*[[Third Epistle of John]]
*[[Epistle of Jude]]
===Revelation===
:''Main Article: [[Revelation]]''
The Book of Revelation, also called ''The Apocalypse'', is the last work in the New Testament as well as the whole Bible, written close to AD 100 by the [[Apostle John]] during his exile on the Greek island of [[Patmos]]. Revelation is concerned with the condition of the [[Seven Churches of Asia]] before going deeply into a description of the last days prior to the beginning of the [[Millennial Age]].
