NO it should begin in Matthew and end in Revelation.do you think that was a mere accident it was done this way since the Canon???? NOT A CHANCE.it was Divine Providence.

the Christian Greek Scriptures are Matthew to Revelation.

Matthew 11:13 (KJV)
13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.

The announcement of John of the Kingdom officially ended the Law and introduced the new.

As I said in the other thread... your original question was when did it begin. I believe it indisputably began with the preaching of John.

Your original question was WHEN did it begin.

Luke 16:16The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.

Not sure how to change this.

I do nothing with it at this moment. I was simply answering the original question which was when did it begin. Luke 16:16 explicitly states the answer. It began when John announced it.

When Jesus came, it is that simple.
