  3. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • DOES GOD SPEAK TO AN INDIVIDUAL (ie. A PROPHET) OR DOES GOD COMMUNICATE WITH A COLLECTIVE OF THOUGHT? THE DNA OF THE BIBLE

  8. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION ORIGIN OF SCRIPTURE 2 Peter 1:16-21 with him I am well pleased.” 18 We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred mountain.

  9. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION ORIGIN OF SCRIPTURE 2 Peter 1:16-21 19 We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place,

  10. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION ORIGIN OF SCRIPTURE 2 Peter 1:16-21 until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.20 Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the

  11. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION ORIGIN OF SCRIPTURE 2 Peter 1:16-21 prophet’s own interpretation of things. 21 For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human,

  12. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION ORIGIN OF SCRIPTURE 2 Peter 1:16-21 spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.”

  13. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • DID THE CHURCH CREATE THE BIBLE? • DID THE CHURCH CREATE THE CHURCH? • DID THE CHURCH DETERMINE WHAT THE BIBLE WAS? THE DNA OF THE BIBLE

  14. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS “The body of rules,  principles, or standards  accepted as axiomatic  anduniversally binding…a  fundamental principle or  generalrule…a standard from which to measure” CANON OF THE BIBLE

  21. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION SETTING PRECEDENT EXODUS 19:3-9 “And Moses went up to God, and the Lord called to him from the mountain, saying, “Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of

  22. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION SETTING PRECEDENT EXODUS 19:3-9 Israel: 4 ‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself. 5 Now therefore,

  23. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION SETTING PRECEDENT EXODUS 19:3-9 if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine.

  24. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION SETTING PRECEDENT EXODUS 19:3-9 6 And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.”

  25. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION SETTING PRECEDENT EXODUS 19:3-9 7 So Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before them all these words which the Lord commanded him.

  26. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION SETTING PRECEDENT EXODUS 19:3-9 Then all the people answered together and said, “All that the Lord has spoken we will do.” So Moses brought back the words of the people to

  27. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION SETTING PRECEDENT EXODUS 19:3-9 the Lord. 9 And the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, I come to you in the thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and believe you forever.”

  28. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION SETTING PRECEDENT EXODUS 19:3-9 So Moses told the words of the people to the Lord.

  29. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION • KEY POINTS: • The BIBLE, WORD of God, is considered by God to be a COVENANT document not a voted upon treaty. • The LORD looks for the POWER OF AGREEMENT among His people.

  30. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION • KEY POINTS: • The Bible is always interpreted correctly when we have the attitude of HIS WORD being HIS COVENANT with HIS PEOPLE. When we abandon that idea, we have lost the CORRECT interpretation of the WORD.

  31. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION • KEY POINTS: • When we reduce God’s WORD down to a set of human principles or WORDS, we WILL CREATE false teachings and false doctrines.

  32. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION • KEY POINTS: • No matter how we look at the Gospel records, we must remember that these documents are GOD’S COVENANT. They show us the building blocks of HIS promises and provision for us.

  33. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • It contains names, places and historical events that can be measured against time and space. FACTS OF THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW

  34. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • It would have been seriously and tediously studied and scrutinized for error and truth. FACTS OF THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW

  35. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • It’s publically known and recognized by the early Church as an authoritative and an accurate source of Jesus Christ. FACTS OF THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW

  36. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • The Church was built upon the foundations of the Apostles and prophets, and whatever was taught had to stand up to that. FACTS OF THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW

  37. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION EPH. 1:19-22 Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles

  38. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION EPH. 1:19-22 and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, 21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together,grows into a holy temple in the Lord,

  39. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION EPH. 1:19-22 22 in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

  40. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION • KEY POINTS: • The gospels are both the DESIGN and ENERGY (LOGOS) to build in us a place for GOD to dwell. And there is no out-of-place or faulty brick or foundation for God’s house in us.

  41. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS The gospel of Matthew is not a commentary upon the life of Jesus Christ. It is the very words used to build the structure in each of us for the HOLY SPIRIT TO DWELL. DNA OF MATTHEW

  42. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION MATTHEW 4:1-3 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. 

  43. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION MATTHEW 4:1-3 3 Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”

  44. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS NOTICE: There is no prohibition against satan coming to us with temptations in our human weakness. If satan did it to Christ, so he will do it to Christ-followers. MATTHEW the BUILDER

  45. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS QUESTION: If Jesus was alone then how did Matthew gain this information about the events of the TEMPTATIONS of Jesus Christ? MATTHEW the BUILDER

  46. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION JOHN 20:30-31 And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ,

  47. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION JOHN 20:30-31 the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.

  48. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE 24:44-48 Then He said to them, “These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses

  49. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE 24:44-48 and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me.” 45 And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures.

  50. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE 24:44-48 46 Then He said to them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to risefrom the dead the third day, 47 and that repentance and remission
