Favourite biblical book?

SpentaMaynu

One God, All in all
Daniel in the OT and Revelation in the NT. Both because I like symbols and theories on the end times. Especially Revelation reads like some of my favorite apocalyptic movies :run::yes:
 
I like the gospel of luke and the book of Jonah.
The gospel of luke talks about Jesus in a manner I like. It is my favourite gospel among the four gospels. The book of Jonah shows a merciful God forgiving evil people, and I really like that book for what it implies.

Finger Prints of the Greatest Love Story Ever Told!

In the opening chapter of God's love letter to man, God lets us know that He created all things in six days and stops from all His work on the seventh and blesses it. However, what you may not know, is that God had also secretly told us about the greatest love story of all in the beginning of His Word, too.

1. Day One of Creation:
God brings forth Light.
In the New Testament, Jesus is the Word made flesh (John 1:14) who is the light of all men whose light shineth out darkness (John 1:4-5). For He is the light of the world (John 8:12).

2. Day Two of Creation:
God separates the Water & creates the firmament or Heavens in-between them.
In the New Testament, Jesus is baptized in water and then the Heavens open up, which begins His ministry (Matthew 3:16). Jesus is our firmament or Heaven (i.e. bridge or stairway) between that which is Heavenly above and that which is Earthy below. For Jesus is the mediator between God and men.

3. Day Three of Creation:
Dry land (including rock) appears and vegetation such as trees come forth.
In the New Testament, Jesus is the rock of our salvation (1 Corinthians 10:4) who is crucified upon a wooden cross or tree for our sins or transgressions against Him (Acts 5:30).

4. Day Four of Creation:
After three days pass by, the sun, the moon, and the stars are raised up into the sky.
In the New Testament, on the third day, Jesus who is the Son of God or the Sun of righteousness (Malachi 4:2) (Revelation 1:16) rises from the grave (Matthew 28:5-6), ascends to the Father up in Heaven (John 20:17) enters the Holy place, and obtains eternal redemption for us (Hebrews 9:12).

5. Day Five of Creation:
God creates marine life and the fowl of the air.
In the New Testament, Jesus is the fisher of men (Matthew 4:19) (John 21:4-8) who returns to be with his disciples for 40 days, greeting them with a meal of fish, and then leaving them back up into Heaven again like a bird going up into the sky (Acts 1:9-10) (Psalm 91:4).

6. Day Six of Creation:
God creates animals and man.
In the New Testament, thru Christ's redemptive work of his death and resurrection, the creature waits for the manifestation of the sons of God (Romans 8:19).

7. Day Seven - After Creation:
God stops from his work, and blesses it as a weekly Sabbath rest for man.
In the New Testament, Jesus can forgive of us of our sins (1 John 2:1-2) and give us an eternal rest and Sabbath for all eternity if we choose to accept it (Matthew 11:28) (Hebrews 4:8-11). Thus restoring a broken relationship between God and man so that we may walk with Him in the light (1 John 1:7) and so that He may give us love and peace (Ephesians 3:17) (John 14:27).

This is the greatest love story ever told. Jesus, who was God Almighty in the flesh knew before the beginning of creation itself that we would sin against Him. So He came down into the flesh of a man to pay the price for our sins against Him. He died so that we could have life and so that we could have a loving and glorious fellowship with Him that is unlike any other. That is how much God loves us; And it is hidden for us to discover like a secret love letter or loving finger print right in the first chapter of Genesis.

For there is no greater love than what the Creator did for you on the cross!

Thank you for reading and may God bless you greatly!

I'd like to add Isaiah to the favorite's list because Isaiah tells us how Jesus will act for us at Isaiah 11:3-4
Isaiah says that God supplied His great ' power and strength ' to create the material world (God did Not create from nothing) - Isaiah 40:26
Isaiah teaches God created the Earth to be inhabited by us - Isaiah 45:18
Isaiah also mentions how sins of scarlet (very bad sins) can become as white as snow (forgiven) - Isaiah 1:18
Isaiah tells just how peaceful the Earth will be under Christ's governing over Earth:
- Isaiah 35; Isaiah 9:7; Isaiah 11:6-9; Isaiah 2:4; Isaiah 49:10; Isaiah 65:21-23; Isaiah 65:25
Isaiah says how to hide (protect) oneself when the great tribulation of Revelation 7:14 comes - Isaiah 26:20
Isaiah also informs us that death will end on Earth - Isaiah 25:8
