The New Testament



The story of Christ is beautiful. It is a story that has eternal consequences and influence on you and on me. How fitting it is to start the Book of Matthew with the announcement of a King. The Old Testament prophesies and amasses to one single, triumphant event: the coming of a Savior, our Lord Jesus Christ. And so begins the New Testament- a testimony that Christ was born, the only Begotten Son of the Father. To fulfill the law, Christ came. Foreordained, he overcame Satan’s snares, even as a babe. He lived, he atoned, and he died that we might live. And not just that we might live, but that we might live eternally and become like Him, even as He is.
