Since it is an infallible unity, all parts agree. The individual authors
and books ought not to be seen as contradictory, but
complementary to each other.
The most obvious line of separation in the Bible is that it has two
large sections known as the Old and New testaments. Each of
these testaments is a covenant, or holy contract between God
and Man. The first is the Old Covenant. It revolves around the
special covenant which God made with Israel, described in the
first 5 books. The rest of the Old Testament shows how Israel broke
that covenant, and how God was preparing for a new and better
covenant.
The New Testament revolves around the New Covenant which
Jesus instituted to replace the Old Covenant. The New Testament
consists of the 4 Gospels, Acts, the Epistles, and Revelation. The Old
Testament looked forward to Christ and the New Covenant, the
New Testament presents Him and it.
