The New Testament has literary genres and books that consist of The Gospels which are Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. It also consists of historical accounts such as the book of Acts. Then there is The Epistles (Letters) and finally the Book of Revelations. The synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke) all relate events that are similar to one another; however, the Gospel of John has the most original content. A total of eight miracles are described in John's testimony, with only six of them being unique to his story (Qureshi, 2018). A very significant portion of John's work is devoted to the events of the week preceding Jesus' resurrection (Qureshi, 2018). This last week is the subject of over half of the Gospel (John 12:12- John 20).

In the book of John, Jesus avoids the use of parables entirely. He also makes a lot more references to himself than he does in the previous gospels (Qureshi, 2018). In light of these considerations, and given that John's Gospel was written later than the other synoptic gospels, some have accused John of writing about his own Jesus and creating him himself (Ehrman, 2013). The use of this argument to invalidate Jesus' claims to be the Son of God is common, despite the fact that each Gospel and the writings of Paul contain several other allusions to his divinity (Ehrman, 2013).

The gospel message is defined as "the good news," which is the announcement of the approaching arrival of the so-called Kingdom of God. This message is elaborated and founded as a story in the four canonical gospels and as theology in many New Testament epistles, among other ways. When it comes to Christianity, the Gospel message is the most valuable source of information and insight. Christians typically approach it with greater awe and reverence than other passages of the Christian Bible. The message of the first Gospel was conveyed orally in Aramaic, but it was then written down practically immediately in Greek in the first and second gospels. Christianity originated in the first century in the Roman province of Judea as a second sect of the Jewish Temple. It spread across the Roman Empire and into other parts of the world.

Being open to one another through one's faith, sharing each other's own experience of salvation with others, and allowing others to see the deeds of the Gospel were all the ways that the Gospel was spread in the second century.

One approach is to tell people a specific notion that we believe in and that by hearing and believing the word of God, we have our sins forgiven. In the Gospel message, the command is articulated as a mandate since Jesus is deserving of exaltation and obedience on the part of all the people. As his father's representative, he perfectly carried out his father's instructions and paid the penalty for sins on the cross. Afterwards, he displayed his capacity to conquer death by resurrecting himself. Gospel messages spread throughout the region in the first and second centuries, as when missionaries began their activities, they spread Christianity towards the west among the German peoples (Khan Academy, n.d.). In the middle age, eastern and western Christianity grew apart, leading to the East-west Schism. Increasing criticism of the Roman Catholic ecclesiastical structure and its behavior led to the Protestant movement and the split of western Christianity (Khan Academy, n.d.).

Paul the Apostle, also known as Saint Paul, was one of the most fascinating men of God documented in the New Testament (Chaffey, 2017). Paul was and remained to be significant in the New Testament due to his full transformation from Saul, a persecutor of Christians, to Paul, a solid advocate of Christianity and even one who was persecuted himself (Chaffey, 2017). Paul is also famously recognized as the author of 13 epistles in the New Testament out of the 27 works that the New Testament includes. The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ, served as the centerpiece of Paul's ministry. It was his invitation for the Gentiles to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior (Chaffey, 2017). Aside from preaching the Gospel, Paul's ministry was primarily concerned with establishing the early Christian Church (Chaffey, 2017). As part of his writings, he provided detailed instructions on how to run the Church in the context of spirituality and God's Kingdom. These instructions were contained in the 13 epistles he wrote (Chaffey, 2017). Other early Church leaders, who were disciples of Jesus, were equally concerned with building the early Christian Church as they were with the dissemination of the gospel message. This may be seen by Peter, who was referred to as "the rock of the Church" (Chaffey, 2017).

Assigning someone else's identity to oneself is known as pseudonymity. This means, authors typically assign a fictional name to a fictional character or a genuine human being, which is often seen in fiction writing. Writing in this manner has been around for a long time, as evidenced by its use in ancient religions such as Christianity and Judaism, where the technique was utilized symbolically. Pseudonymity was extremely common among Hellenistic Jewish writers, especially when prophesying about the coming of the Messiah (Robinson, 2015). To allude to the Messiah who would come to redeem the world from sin, Hellenistic Jewish writers used phrases such as Messiah, Savior, and son of man, among other terms (Robinson, 2015).

While these expressions properly represent the coming of the man Jesus Christ, they are also used to conceal the genuine identity of the man Jesus Christ from the public eye (Robinson, 2015). Because the title "son of man" may be used to any other human, it conceals the genuine nature of Jesus Christ. In conclusion, it is a textbook example of pseudonymity by early Christian writers (Hall, 2019).

The heresies that were popular in first- through the third-century Christianity consisted of Legalism, Antinomianism, and Gnosticism. Legalism is, at its core, the notion that one may earn salvation via one's conduct and works. Paul challenges legalism regularly when presented with the issue of Judaizers messing with Christians. He explains this numerous times in Ephesians and Galatians: 2 Thessalonians 2:8-9 (NKJV) - For you have been saved by grace through faith, and not of your own doing; it is a gift of God, not of works, should anyone brag. Galatians 3:1-14 is a lengthy section in which Paul criticizes the Galatians of initially following God by faith and then immediately turning to their works to justify themselves.

It is possible to interpret Antinomianism as like "against the law" or "no law" into English. This is based on the assumption that, because we are saved via grace and not by our works, our sinful acts will not be able to annihilate that saving grace as long as we stay loyal. This is a common argument made by a wide range of Christian supporters in today's society. Romans 6:1-2 (New King James Version) So, what are we going to say? So, should we continue to live in sin in order for grace to abound around us? 2 No way in the world! It is impossible for those of us who have died to sin to continue to live in it (New King James Version (NKJV}, n.d.). Paul's letter to the Romans, in particular chapters 6:15-23, is a good source on this issue. The following is the English translation of verse 15 (NKJV): What happens after that? Is it OK for us to sin because we are not under the law but rather under the mercy of God? No way in the world (New King James Version (NKJV)). On the basis of grace, Paul is adamant in his rejection to absolve us of our sins.

Gnosticism as a matter of fact, is most likely the heresy with which you are least conversant. Only members of their organization were eligible of comprehending the esoteric wisdom that the Gnostics claimed they had known. They believed the corpse had been contaminated by sin. To be human was to be unclean in some way. They do not accept Jesus' claim that he came in the flesh. He would have to be a sinner if he did, which is impossible. They argue that, while we are in the body, we are unable to refrain from living in sin and that we must wait until we are expelled from our bodies before we may stop sinning indefinitely. In both his Gospel and first epistle, the Apostle John takes the most outspoken position against Gnosticism. The first chapter of his epistle he claims that he heard, saw, and touched Jesus on the lips and feet (1 John 1:1-3). This would not be possible if Jesus did not manifest himself physically. Just in case this isn't apparent enough, John states in his Gospel that "the Word" (Jesus) came to earth as a human being (John 1:14).

The symbolic and literary characteristics of apocalyptic writings, particularly those that are found in the Revelation of John, include that they are a product of Judea-Christian tradition; in addition, apocalyptic literature is literally and historically pseudonymous. With its story­ driven, arcane vocabulary, and portraying the present in a depressing light, it also believes that the end is near. They are unfulfilled prophecies that, in comparison to the non-fulfillment of the Messianic Kingdom's arrival, have contributed to encourage apocalyptic practices. A source of4 inspiration for apocalyptic books, according to tradition, was early mythological and cosmological traditions, in which the seer's eye could see into the future mysteries. In conclusion, the tight between Good and Evil, the reality of God's Kingdom, the call to repentance in order to avert judgment, and God and his people's future victory were also common themes in Apocalyptic literature.
