The Acts Of The Apostles And The Multiplication Of Churches
This historic record of the growth and expansion of the early churches was written by Luke. As a companion of the Apostle Paul during his evangelistic campaigns, he was an eye witness to many of the events recounted in the book. If his first book (Gospel Narrative) may be considered “volume 1”, recounting the earthly ministry of Christ when organizing the first church (between the years 4BC and 29AD), then his second book (Acts of the Apostles) may be considered “volume 2”, recounting the heavenly ministry of Christ growing and multiplying the churches (between the years 29AD and 63AD). The chart below provides a bird’s-eye view of the chronological order for the books of the New Testament. John Gill, “Commentary On The New Testament Scriptures”:…

The Gospel According To Luke
This gospel record was written by Luke, a convert to Christ under the preaching ministry of the Apostle Paul. It is one of four inspired narratives recounting the earthly ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ. The chart below provides a bird’s-eye view of the chronological order for the books of the New Testament. John Gill, “Commentary On The New Testament Scriptures”: “The writer of this Gospel, Luke, has been, by some, thought, as Origen relates, to be the same with Lucius, mentioned in (Romans 16:21), but he seems rather to be, and without doubt is, Luke the beloved physician, who was a companion of the Apostle Paul in great part of his travels in the Gentile world: he came with him to Jerusalem, and from…

The Gospel According To Matthew
This gospel record was written by Matthew. It is one of four inspired narratives recounting the earthly ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ. The chart below provides a bird’s-eye view of the chronological order for the books of the New Testament. John Gill, “Commentary On The New Testament Scriptures”: “The subject of this book, and indeed of all the writings of the New Testament, is the Gospel. The Greek word euaggelion signifies a joyful message, good news, glad tidings of good things; such as Christ was anointed to preach, the Angels brought to the shepherds, and the Evangelists, Apostles, and Ministers of Christ published to the world. (Isaiah 61:1, Isaiah 52:7 Luke 2:10). And such is the account given by this inspired writer, of the…

The First Letter Of Paul To The Churches At Thessalonica
I believe the first letter of Paul to the churches at Thessalonica was written between the years 52,53AD, making it the first of his fourteen epistles. The chart below provides a bird’s-eye view of the chronological order for the books of the New Testament. John Gill, “Commentary On The New Testament Scriptures”: “Thessalonica was a very large, populous, and flourishing city, it was “liberae conditionis”, as Pliny says, a free city, and the metropolis of Macedonia; it was formerly called Halis, and had the name of Thessalonica given it by Philip king of Macedon, on account of his conquest of Thessalia, which this name signifies; and some say he gave this name to a daughter of his on that occasion, who was afterwards the wife…

The Second Letter Of Paul To The Churches At Thessalonica
I believe the second letter of Paul to the churches at Thessalonica was written between the years 52,53AD, making it the second of his fourteen epistles. The chart below provides a bird’s-eye view of the chronological order for the books of the New Testament. John Gill, “Commentary On The New Testament Scriptures”: “This second epistle was written, not from Athens, as the subscription testifies, nor from Rome, as Athanasius supposes; but from Corinth, from whence was sent the former, and where the apostle and Timothy, and Silvanus met; and which was sent about half a year after the other. The design of which is to comfort and support the Thessalonians under the afflictions and persecutions they endured for the sake of the Gospel; and to…

The First Letter Of Paul To The Church At Corinth
I believe the first letter of Paul to the churches at Corinth was written in the year 57AD, making it the third of his fourteen epistles. The chart below provides a bird’s-eye view of the chronological order for the books of the New Testament. John Gill, “Commentary On The New Testament Scriptures”: “This was not the first epistle that was written by the apostle to the Corinthians, for we read in this of his having written an epistle to them before, (1 Corinthians 5:9), but this is the first epistle of his unto them, that is now extant; and has been received by the churches, as of divine authority, being written by the inspiration of God, of which there has been no doubt in any…
