Overview

D. Earl Cripe, Ph.D (1934-2011) held firmly to Historic Orthodox Christian Theology that the Bible is the only guide to the faith and practice of the Church. Towards that end during his more than forty-seven years of ministry he penned numerous volumes of expository Bible commentaries. In them he takes the reader verse-by-verse through the chosen book of the Bible, explaining the original meanings and intentions along with the applications to the life of the serious believer of Christ in simple language that anyone can grasp. They are essential reading for the serious Christian looking to further their understanding of the Holy Scriptures.This volume is part 1 of our 6-part verse-by-verse study of the four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.I was born in a Christian home, but when I turned my life over to Christ and decided to go all-out for the Kingdom, I realized that I did not know what very much about the Bible, at least in any depth. I knew that I must start studying the Bible comprehensively, contextually, and in earnest. Whether it was wise or unwise I started in the Gospels. In the past 47 years I have worn out a number Bibles and some them I filled completely up with notes. I am ashamed to admit that now when I go to many of the books of the Bible I struggle with the feeling that I already know what it says, but I have never had that feeling about the four Gospels. Every time I go back to them, the words of Jesus continue to open out in new heights and depths of meaning. In some books, my understanding does not change much but in the Gospels I am often amused at what I had written about something Jesus said when I studied it thirty-five years ago. As I have readied myself for this study, it is no different. For me, the Gospels are always new. I trust that this introduction will give you a bit of insight into what lies ahead, and that the Lord will use these feeble efforts to do for you what He has done for me, and more, in this study of the Gospels.
