       The Gospel of Jesus Christ written by Matthew is the first
       chronological book of The New Testament. It contains
       twenty-eight chapters and the author is considered to be the
       Disciple Matthew who by trade was a "Publican" or a Roman tax
       collector despised by the people for being an extortioner...The
       Gospel Written By Luke  5:27...And after these things he went
       forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of
       custom: and he said unto him, Follow me. 28. And he left all,
       rose up, and followed him.
       The central purpose or theme of the book is to show that Jesus
       Christ is the Messiah prophesied by the Old Testament Prophets
       sent to redeem the world...Malachi Chapter 3 1. Behold, I will
       send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and
       the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even
       the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he
       shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.
