God always insisted on his people following instruction in correct order -
"And said unto them, Ye are the chief of the fathers of the Levites: sanctify yourselves, both ye and your brethren, that ye may bring up the ark of the LORD God of Israel unto the place that I have prepared for it. 13 For because ye did it not at the first, the LORD our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order."[I Chr 15:12-13]

"And to offer all burnt sacrifices unto the LORD in the sabbaths, in the new moons, and on the set feasts, by number, according to the order commanded unto them, continually before the LORD"[I Chron 23:31]

"And they burn unto the LORD every morning and every evening burnt sacrifices and sweet incense: the shewbread also set they in order upon the pure table; and the candlestick of gold with the lamps thereof, to burn every evening: for we keep the charge of the LORD our God; but ye have forsaken him."[II.. Chr 13:11]

Even the new covenant is covered by the old -
"Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me." [Psa.. 119:133]

Satan convinced the first-century church leaders, even before the last apostle had left the scene, that the best way to teach new converts to Christ, is to begin with the four gospels, Mathew, Mark, Luke, And John, followed by the historical account of the expansion of the kingdom of God in the earth, in the book of "Acts of the Apostles." The Apostles spent their last years warning about this very thing.

Luke took pains to tell us "Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us, 2 Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word; 3 It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,"[Luke.. 1:1-3]

Peter also warned -
"But Peter rehearsed the matter from the beginning, and expounded it by order unto them..." [Acts.. 11:4]

Was it important for Paul?
"Let all things be done decently and in order." [I Cor 14:40]

Even the resurrection has its own order -
"But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming."[I Cor 15:23]

Maintaining "order" was part and basic in the early church "For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ." [Col.. 2:5]

Paul wrote to titus
"For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:"[titus.. 1:5]

Everything about God's kingdom demand "order" and proper arrangement, including the reading of the books, in the order the Holy Spirit inspired them to be written.

"..even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest(turn or twist awry), as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. 17 Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness."[II.. Pet 3:15-17]

Don't let anyone convince you that "It doesn't matter in what order you study the Scriptures of the new covenant."
