We start a new series here. This I think will be super helpful for a lot of people.
The Bible was written with a lot of genres and by a lot of people, but it was 100% and 100% divine. It has it's historical reasons of being written, but it also has the ultimate purpose of having eternal life through faith in Jesus.
The Old Testament was written in a complex way that is hard for us to get at these days. The New Testament is easier to acknowledge in the sense that first there was the oral tradition, the verbal message that was communicated. Secondly, there was the written record of what was being passed down orally. Voila! That's the Scripture as we know it!
Next time we'll look at the formation of the Bible into the form it currently is in today.
