The Book of First Corinthians is the seventh book of the New Testament. This epistle contains some of the best-known phrases in the New Testament, including "all things to all men", "without love, I am nothing", "through a glass, darkly", and "when I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child". Throughout the letter, Paul presents issues that are troubling the Corinthian church and offers ways to fix them.

The Book of Hebrews is an inspirational letter to Christians, exalting God and showing Jesus' role as mediator between God and humanity. It includes such famous passages as Hebrews 11, a powerful message on faith throughout the ages. This epistle exhorts Christians to persevere in the face of persecution and not revert to their old ways despite of it.

According to tradition, Paul wrote his letter to the Ephesians while he was in prison in Rome around AD 62. Paul gives practical advice in how to live a holy, pure, and Christ inspired lifestyle. The unity of the church, especially between Jew and Gentile believers, is the keynote of the book. Ephesians is also notable for its domestic code covering husband-wife, parent-child, and master-slave relationships. Many devotional thoughts and sermons that are addressed to the practically minded individual have been drawn from this section of the New Testament.

The book of Colossians was written to the church in Colossae, a small Phrygian city near Laodicea and approximately 100 miles from Ephesus in Asia Minor. Like some of his other epistles, this seems to have been written because of reports Paul had heard of the internal state of the church there. During the first generation after Jesus, Paul's epistles to various churches helped establish early Christian theology.

The Book of Acts is the fifth book in the New Testament and describes the historical development of the early Church, a time when Christianity spread like wildfire. Written by St. Luke, it begins with the Ascension of Jesus, the formation of the first Christian community in Jerusalem, and the day of Pentecost. The spread of Christianity is primarily seen through the actions of Peter, the first Apostle to bring Christianity to the Gentiles, and Paul, with his four missionary journeys.

The Book of Galatians is a letter from Paul of Tarsus to a number of early Christian communities that he had founded in the Roman province of Galatia. After Paul's departure, the churches were led astray from Paul's teachings by individuals proposing "another gospel" which centered around salvation through the Mosaic law. The Galatians appear to have been receptive to the teaching of these newcomers, and the epistle is Paul's angry response to what he sees as their willingness to turn from his teaching.
