Preaching The Bible Effectively With A Bible History Timeline
In our weekly Bible class some years ago, a friend who had been a Christian and laboured in the local Church for over 15 years, said,"Yes, but Abraham had the Law and so he understood about......" (they weren't talking about the pre-mosaic law) I wonder how many Christians will really notice the error in this assertion. Moses lived five hundred years after Abraham and so it is impossible. I have since put together a Biblical timeline and shown visually the chronology of individuals and occasions.
Why is it that we dwell on our pet themes and feel good sermons?
We preach on a text from Titus and a narrative about Abraham and a theme from the book of Colossians and then the example of Jacob or the faith of Noah - bits from here and everyplace, but we do not put it all at once in an apparent understandable, easy to remember, perspective with a capable Bible TimeLine with Church History as well. Constantly we're bombarded with new books, modernist ideas, some of them hazardously leaning toward Progressive theology, when if we were to be instructed the basics of Church history, we then wouldn't be so bound to do the same again.
Let's us as tutors and preachers sew together the aspects of the Bible and God's plan into a logical whole that our people are able to draw on for the remainder of their lives, helping them to comprehend God, His Eternal Plan, the function of the Church and how to better interpret the Bible to live by.
It is not hard to do, and it is not boring if we're prepared to put in a bit of study with prayer and fervor, and just maybe you can make use of a Bible Timeline as well.
