The Acts of the Apostles

In this book, Barclay examines three very varied, but important, letters from Paul. Known as the "Epistle of Joy", his letter to the Philippians is a letter of encouragement to his dearest of friends. In his letter to Colossians, Paul dedicates some of his highest thinking to the relatively insignificant town of Colosse and defends the Church there from a dangerous heresy; and Thessalonians, Paul reassures the Christians of this town, so vital in the emergence of Christianity as a world faith, and firm solutions to the day-to-day problems which arose in the new and expanding Church.

The Letters to the Philippians, Colossians and Thessalonians

Stylistically unlike any other part of the New Testament, Revelation is also notoriously bewildering and difficult to understand but, with Barclay's help, we are able to unlock its wonders and blessings. "The Revelation of John" contains many terrors but is also a clarion call to believers: a beautiful proclamation that, beyond the end of days, Christians shall know heaven and the true glory of God.

The Revelation of John

The anonymous writer of "The Letter to the Hebrews" describes how we can access God through His son, Jesus. In his life his death, Christ delivers the faithful to the very presence of God. Barclay provides us with a deeper understanding of this unnamed author's beautiful and skilled work.

The Letter to the Hebrews

Revelation is stylistically unlike any other part of the New Testament and is notoriously bewildering and difficult to understand. In Revelation, we come face to face with terrifying sight of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and with the horrifying concept of Armageddon – but these fearful prospects are carefully explored by William Barclay in ways that lead us to the revelation that Christians shall know heaven and the true glory of God.

The Letter to the Romans

In "Romans", Paul distills the very essence of his faith and belief. He writes to the vanguard of the new Christian faith in the heart of the greatest empire the world had ever known. Paul understood the importance to Rome's fledgling church of a secure foundation from which to launch itself - and this letter was to be that foundation. William Barclay makes Paul's words relevant in today's world, showing us that we are not too different from the Romans to whom this letter was addressed nearly 2000 years ago.

Millions of people, worldwide, love William Barclay's endlessly fascinating ability to unlock and reveal the meaning of the New Testament in our daily life. No writer in the New Testament presents with greater intensity the full reality of the incarnation than John. Not only did Jesus come to the world as a man, but he also suffered for men and women. Aside from its beautiful ending, Jude is often neglected, but there have been times in the history of the Church when Jude was not far from being the most relevant book iin the New Testament.
