In the last episode, we heard how the Friday Bible Class impacted Kate during her secondary school years.

After the ‘O’ Level Cambridge examinations at Secondary Four, Kate went on to a three-year Teachers’ Training Course. About 6 months before graduation, her friend, Hian Mee, from the Friday Bible Class, asked her, “Kate, would you like to go with me to study Theology in Melbourne?” Kate was surprised but she answered, “If it is God’s will, I will go with you.” Kate didn’t mean it – and couldn’t have realised how prophetic her words were.

Welcome listeners to the 9th session of our series on New Testament Survey. We have covered the epistles of Paul in the previous two talks. In this and the next session, we shall introduce the epistles of the other New Testament writers. Each of them have something significant to contribute to our faith. As an introduction, there are 8 epistles written by different important New Testament writers, other than Paul. They are grouped together as the general or catholic epistles. These terms tell us that the messages of these writings are for all.
