Seeing the Bible as One Story
Despite our beliefs about God's Word, many of us are intimidated by it. Seeing it as a jumbled assortment of highly complex texts removed from our time, we consider the Bible to be inaccessible, and we shy away from true study. Though it is true that the Bible is complex, as it was written by the Holy Spirit, it is completely accessible to believers with His help. Furthermore, it is important that we see the bible as ONE UNIFIED STORY of God's plan to redeem mankind and all of creation through Jesus Christ. With daily practice and dependence on the Holy Spirit, you will begin to notice this common thread running throughout scripture. Review a basic outline of the Bible, as well as a basic timeline of the Bible, below.
