THE NEW TESTAMENT ERA
7 B.C.—A.D. 100
The New Testament era began with a star in the East leading to a baby in Bethlehem. The babe was Jesus, the Messiah, God incarnate. Jesus proclaimed God's eternal plan to the Jewish people, but the majority rejected him as their Messiah. He was crucified as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. But death could not hold him, and on the third day he arose, defeating death, and ascended into heaven forty days later.
Because the Jews rejected their Messiah, God sent the Roman armies in AD 70 to destroy Jerusalem and its temple and to take captive the Jewish survivors. God then offered his salvation plan to the Gentiles, and the rest of the first century is the story of the spreading of the Good News from Jerusalem throughout the Roman Empire.
