Chronological Order Of Old Testament Prophets

A Bible History Timeline Offers A Graphic Representation To Convey Bible Events And Principles

In our Bible group some years ago, a woman who had been a Christian and laboured in the local Church for years, asserted that,"Yes, but Abraham had the Law and so he understood about......" (they were not referring to the pre-mosaic law) I wonder just how many Christians will actually pick up the inaccuracy in this assertion. Moses existed 500 years after Abraham and so it is not possible. I have since compiled a Bible chronological banner and shown in a more graphic way the chronology of men and women and occasions.

Some time ago, I was speaking on the death, burial, life and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and a retired pastor and powerful preacher of Scripture, who had been a minister for forty years, marched up and reproved me smartly over some fascinating points I made and he said 1Ti 1:4'Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.' I humbly asked him if I had been saying anything of a heretical nature in any way, to which he answered"No". I continued to spell out that in the case of that particular verse, it wasn't speaking to exploring Scripture but to the false teachings and school of thought of Gnosticism, but he would not accept it. Let me ask, how can a forty year minister & laborer in the Gospel, not know and understand about something that possibly 1/2 the books of the New Testament refer to?

How could he study and preach the Bible in fullness without being aware of something that was so influential in the New Testament church? And then how can the congregation hope to comprehend these things and be able to understand their Bible effectively, if they are not informed?

Let's us as teachers and preachers stitch together the fragments of God's Word and His plan into a seamless tapestry that our people can draw on for the rest of their lives, helping them to comprehend God, His Eternal Plan, the function of the Church and ways to better translate the Bible to model our lives by.

It's not hard to do, and it's not boring if we're prepared to put in a bit of study and prayer and fervor, and just perhaps you can use a Bible Timeline too.
