Forty in the Bible points to a time of test or trial. Jesus spent 40 days and nights in the wilderness; Moses ascended Mt. Sinai for 40 days and nights two separate times to receive the 10 Commandments; it rained upon the earth for 40 days and nights to cause the Great Flood; and the Jews wandered in the wilderness for 40 years. So here is a worthy 40-day test. Take this challenge to read the Gospels in 40 days: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. This book uses the format of the One Year Chronological Bible with the New Living Translation, which is easy to read and easier to understand. A chronological Bible groups events in historical order, and makes it easier to see the differences in the perspective of each author.
“40 Days Through the Gospels” offers an in-depth commentary on each section of the daily Bible reading in the Gospels to help promote that deeper understanding of God’s Word. In the Gospels, the focus is on Jesus and His time upon this earth. Though He was a great teacher, the religious leaders of the day killed Him for claiming to be God. As C.S. Lewis said, Jesus was either a raving lunatic or was the God He claimed to be.
Each of us needs to make that decision for ourselves of whom Jesus was and is! It does not matter if that journey of discovering Jesus has not yet begun or has progressed to a close walk, this book is meant to deepen each reader’s understanding of who God is, what He did for us and how we can serve Him.
