Two most important books of the Bible?
If you HAD to choose just 2 books from the Bible, one from each Testament what would they be and why.

Hmm-- Interesting question! Off the top of my head it would be Genesis and Acts. But I am going to have to give it some thought.

I agree with Genesis but I would add probably one of the Gospels. Genesis to say how we got to where we are and the promise that is coming and possibly the gospel of John to tell us Who the promise is.

Old Testatment is hard to decide.
I am think Psalms
New Testament
Maybe John......although Acts is right up there.
Hard decision.

If I absolutely had to narrow it down to just one from each Testament it would be Genesis and Acts.
The Gospel of John would be right up there with them though.
Thinking about this question has made me more aware and thankful for all of God's Word. I am glad i don't have to do without any of it.
Many times as I sit with my Bible on my lap, pondering some fresh nugget gleaned from the Scripture, I think to myself, "I am so glad I didn't neglect the Word today, or I would have missed this!"
"Man doth not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God."

hmmmmmm..... I think Isaiah and..... Acts. Isaiah because there is so much prophecy and it talks about the oneness of God chapters at a time. Acts because it's the beginnings of the church and it's were you see salvation poured out for the first time..... I agree with coonskinner, I'm so glad we don't have to miss out on any part of God's word.

As I stated before, Genesis because it gives the history of our situation and one of the Gospels, probably John because it gives us the fulfillment of the gospel and promise mentioned in Genesis. Plus, I all ready have them on my IPOD.
