2 Corinthians 11:7-9 - Did I commit sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you free of charge? I robbed other churches, taking wages from them to minister to you. And when I was present with you, and in need, I was a burden to no one, for what I lacked the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied. And in everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so I will keep myself.
1 Timothy 5:17, 18 - Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine. For the Scripture says, "You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain," and, "The laborer is worthy of his wages."

The only martyr story in the New Testament is about St Stephen, who was reported to have been stoned by the Jews. Some say that this story may not be literally historical.
It would be fair to say the Old Testament is about 80% of the Bible. One must consider the length of Psalms and others being larger than any New Testament Book. The Gospels quote from the Old Testament nearly 700 times with the Book of Isaiah being referred to as the 'Little Bible.' So the New Testament represents about 20% of the Bible pages. That being said, many say the Law of Moses is done away with. But if they realized it was quoted nearly 250 times in the New Testament, even by Jesus Himself, they might think differently.
Some say that it is the book of Revelations, written by John.

I suppose you could say that the Old Testament is a sort of prequel to the New Testament.

Jesus never mentioned Purim in the New Testament.
Apart from Christianity, you could say that all other religions do not accept the New Testament. (The religion that accepts the Old Testament, or Hebrew Bible, but not the New Testament, is Judaism.) It is also worth noting that Islam rejects the New Testament as written, but does not reject the spiritual nature of the events it describes. Islam holds the New Testament to be a corrupted form of Jesus's Ministry, something that is very important in Islam.
There is no explicit reference in the New Testament stating that Didymus Judas Thomas is Jesus' twin brother. The belief that Thomas is Jesus' twin is based on extra-biblical sources and early Christian traditions.

Absolutely nothing. It's the old testament that says stuff about it, but if you follow the new testament you should know that Jesus was sent to earth to redeem Christians and render the arbitrary rules of the old testament obsolete.

Here it was the angel Gabriel who spoke to Mary, and not God.
