There are four gospels written about Jesus' life. They are the first, second, third and fourth books of the New Testament: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Although they all relay the same basic message of eternal life through Christ Jesus the Messiah, they are all from a slightly different point of view, have different stories in them, and begin and end differently. Also, majority of the rest of the books in the new testament refer to Jesus' life. If you are reading them for faith, or a school report, I would suggest an NIV (new international version), or NLT (new living translation) Bible; as they have the clearest translation.
66 books
Christmas is not mentioned once.Christ's birth, and the coming of the Messiah is mentioned numerous times, both in the prophetic Old Testament books and in the Gospels, but Chritsmas was not called Christ's Mass, or Christmas, for many centuries after Jesus's birth and after the books of the Bible were written.
Jesus' birth was mentioned 50 times in the bible.
It is said that Jesus was born 4 years before AD. This means for year 2010, there are 2014 from Jesus birth.
The bible is a collection of books. The books of the old testament comes from before the birth Jesus. The new testament are the books concerning the birth of Jesus and what comes after. As well as the books in the current bible, there were many other books written by people at the time (including many fakes written afterwards). Also there were many copies and different translations that did not match up. The current bible came about when the Pope organised the theologians of the day to go through all the books and sort them out. The books of the bible were written over a long period of time, all we have left are copies of the originals.
66Answer:The original make-up of Old Testament books had 22 of them. Some have said that after the 27 New Testament books were established and the total books of the Bible were 49 (7x7 in biblical numerology is 'perfection/completion'), that the Old Testament was broken out to be 39 books - its current composition. This would equal 66 books today (6 in biblical numerology is the number of man).
It isn't. The story of the birth of Jesus is the most famous Christmas story. A Christmas Carol is a literature classic. Because Charles Dickens is famous, with so many great books, many of his books become well known.
As Jesus did many miracles, you can find them mainly in the books of Matthew, Mark , Luke and John.
about 66 times depending on the translation.
