It helps in connecting the world of New Testament and that of the future, and brings about the key meaning and allow divine and human to be in union by bringing about gifts whereby God creates meaning in Jesus Christ with the testimony of the gift in the New Testament writings.In early church the community came together for prayers and there was sharing of the word of God and celebration of baptism and holy Eucharist. The prayer meetings were done in house churches and this allowed peaceful and organized religious life and this gave a high competition to the synagogues meetings.Gospel is a word used to signify the good news of Jesus Christ.
