Abstract
The concept of God's faithfulness is implicit in all of the Sacred Scripture; indeed, one could say that the Bible is, in a sense, the story of God's faithfulness. But only comparatively seldom does this attribute of God come to the surface explicitly. The purpose of this thesis is to study those passages and their context in the New Testament where it is specifically mentioned. Each of those passages is like a facet of a diamond, revealing a new aspect of God's faithfulness, high lighting another element of it, making our conception of it richer and deeper.
