Jesus promised his discples that the Holy Spirit would lead them to author what would be known as the New Testament

The Holy Spirit will teach you and remind you of everything - John 14:25-26

He will guide you into all truth - John 16:12-13

Message received by them:

• Revelation which God gave him - Revelation 1:1
• Paul words taught by the Spirit - 1 Corinthians 2:10,13
• The Lord's command - 1 Corinthians 14:37
• I recieved it by revelation from Jesus Christ - Galatians 1:11-12
• Men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit - 2 Peter 1:20-21

Thrity five miracles in the book of Acts alone - The miracles confirmed the message. God's way of saying the message was really coming from him.

Made up? Not likely since they were often beaten, tortured, and killed for affirming them

The miracles never benefited directly or for entertainment. When the New Testament was completely written, the miracles stopped too (about 62AD)

Key Phrase: The miracles confirmed the message. God's way of saying the message was really coming from him.
