What are the 21 epistles of the new testament

The New Testament of the Bible contains 27 books, not 21 epistles. However, 21 of these books are epistles, which are letters written by early Christian leaders to various churches or individuals. Here is the list of epistles in the New Testament:

1. Romans
2. 1 Corinthians
3. 2 Corinthians
4. Galatians
5. Ephesians
6. Philippians
7. Colossians
8. 1 Thessalonians
9. 2 Thessalonians
10. 1 Timothy
11. 2 Timothy
12. Titus
13. Philemon
14. Hebrews
15. James
16. 1 Peter
17. 2 Peter
18. 1 John
19. 2 John
20. 3 John
21. Jude

The remaining 6 books of the New Testament are not epistles, but rather:

• The four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), which are accounts of the life, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
• The Acts of the Apostles, which is a historical account of the early Christian church.
• The Revelation of John, which is a prophetic book that contains apocalyptic visions and messages.

It's worth noting that the term "epistle" is often used interchangeably with "letter", but technically, an epistle is a formal letter written in a more formal and structured style, often with a specific purpose or message.
