The Bible may look like one book, but it is actually sixty-six rolled into one. Thirty-nine books make up what we call the Old Testament, and twenty-seven make up the New Testament. God used many authors–as many as forty–over a time-period of many centuries to write the sixty-six books of the Bible. This makes each book unique.
The first five books of the Bible are known as the Pentateuch or “Five Books of Moses”. The Laws of God are known as the Ten Commandments.
But even though each book has its own style and character, each one contributes to God’s life-changing message. What is that message? Through the Bible, God makes it clear that he loves us and has a plan to save us from the destructive power of sin.
