A Bible History Timeline Gives A Creative Representation To Aid And Help Teach Bible Events And Facts

In our Bible study some years ago, a woman who had been a Christian and laboured in the local Church for many years, asserted that,"Yes, but Abraham had the Law and so he understood about......" (they weren't referring to the pre-Moses law) I wonder how many Christians would actually notice the inaccuracy in this assertion. Moses existed some 500 years after Abraham and so it is an impossibility. I have since made up a Biblical chronological banner and explained in a more graphic way the time period of individuals and events.

Some time ago, I was preaching on the resurrection, burial, life and death of Jesus Christ, and a retired pastor and powerful preacher of the Gospel, who had been a pastor for forty years, came to me and reproved me smartly over some fascinating points I made and he mentioned 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 was saying anything of a heretical nature at all, to which he answered"No". I continued on to explain that in the case of that particular verse, it wasn't speaking to examining the Bible but to the false teaching and philosophy of Gnosticism, but he wouldn't accept it. Let me ask, how can a forty year minister & laborer in the Gospel, not know and understand about something that probably 1/2 the books of the New Testament discuss?

How could he study and preach the Bible fully without being familiar with something that was so influential in the New Testament church? And then how can the congregation hope to comprehend these things and be in a position to understand their Bible well, if they are not told?

Let's us as teachers and preachers stitch together the fragments of the Bible and God's plan into a complete picture that our people are able to draw on for the rest of life, to help them to comprehend God, His Eternal Plan, the role of the Church and ways to better translate the Bible to live by.

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