Read for yourself of the life and teachings of Jesus Christ (यीशु मसीह़) as written by his disciples (चेले), the Sants (संत), Mathew (मत्ती), Mark (मरकुस), Luke (लूका‍), and John (यह़ून्‍ना). Learn about the life and works of the early believers of Jesus in Acts (रसूलें दे कम्‍में दा बखान).

As these apostles (रसूल) shared the Good News (खुश खबरी) about Jesus, groups of believers (विश्‍वासियें दियां मंडलियां) were formed all over the ancient Roman Empire. To guide and teach them, the apostles wrote letters to groups in many different places.

To the group in the city Rome (रोम्‍मिएं दियें मंडलियें आस्‍ते चीट्ठी), the apostle Paul (रसूल पौलुस) taught the believers about God’s plan for the world through the prophesied messiah (मसीह़ा), Jesus Christ. To the believers in Corinth (कुरिन्‍थिए दिये मंडली आस्‍ते पैह़ली ते दूई चीट्ठी), Paul taught the believers about God’s plan for marriage (ब्‍याह़), spiritual gifts (आत्‍मक बरदान), the resurrection (मरने दे बा’द फी जींदा होना), the place of prophesy (भ़विक्‍खवानी) and speaking in tongues (सुअर्गे दी बोल्‍ली) during worship (अराध़ना) in fellowships of Christ (मसीह़ दी संगती). And in the 2nd letter about how God comforts us in all our troubles (दुख-मसीबतां) and uses our weaknesses (कमजोरियां) for His glory.

While Paul was in prison for sharing his faith, he wrote four letters to different groups urging them to stay fixed in their faith. To the believers in the city of Galatia (गलातिया दी मंडली आस्‍ते चीट्ठी), he teaches them what true freedom is. To the believers in city of Ephesus (इफिसिया दी मंडली आस्‍ते चीट्ठी), he teaches them how to overcome the powers of Satan (शतान दी बुरी शक्‍ति दा सामना करीए जीत ह़ासल करी लेना). To the believers in city of Philippi (फिलिप्‍पि दी मंडली आस्‍ते चीट्ठी), he teaches what they need to do to have true joy in their lives. To the believers in the city of Colosse (कलुसिया दी मंडली आस्‍ते चीट्ठी), he teaches how the believers should live lives of faith until Christ returns to earth.

To the churches in the city of Thessalonica (थिस्‍सलुनीकिया दी मंडली आस्‍ते पैह़ली ते दूई चीट्ठी), Paul wrote to those who were experiencing great persecution and encouraging them to stand fast in their faith, and also discusses what happens to believers who have died, and about what will happen at the end of this age of the world (इस जुगे दे अंते च). Paul then writes to several of his disciples, Timothy (तिमुथियस गी पैह़ली ते दूई चीट्ठी) & Titus (पौलुस दी तीतुस आस्‍ते चीट्ठी), who are pastoring groups of believers in different places about what true Christian leadership should look like.

The author of the book of Hebrews (इब्रानिएं दी मंडलियें आस्‍ते चीट्ठी) writes to Jewish believers that the realities of new covenant (नमां करार) through the sacrifice of Jesus (यीशु दी कुरबानी) are greater than the temporary ones of the first covenant (पराने करारे दी परानी पूजन-बिह़दी).

Following these are several letters from other apostles written to various groups encouraging them in their various trials. The apostle James (याकूब दी चीट्ठी) was a wise leader who wrote about what God wants from his people. The apostle Peter (पतरस दी पैह़ली ते दूई चीट्ठी) wrote about the believers’ inheritance in heaven and sharing in God’s nature (परमेसरे दे म्‍ह़ैमा आले ते सिह़द सह़भ़ाए दे भ़ागीदार) here on earth. The apostle John (यह़ून्‍ना दी पैह़ली, दूई, ते त्री चीट्ठी) wrote to remind believers of the necessity to love one-another and obey God’s commandments (ह़ुक्‍म). He also wrote the final book of the New Testament, Revelation (प्रकाशित बाह़क्‍या), to share the visions he had about the events at the end of this age, and the coming of the New Heavens and Earth (नमां भ़रमांड).
