unique chronological Bible studies from your Bible

15 reasons to love these Unique chronological Bible studies

1.  All of the Word of God is Covered

Other Chronological Bible Studies focus on Scripture passages that advance the general theme of the Bible. This chronological Bible study contains 365 readings, covering the whole Bible, not just selected passages. The entire Bible is important to understand, even Scriptures like Leviticus, which might be considered difficult, or minor stories in the overall narrative. 

2. These Unique Chronological Bible Studies respect the intent of each author’s message.

In an attempt to be exact, other chronological Bible reading plans are cut up and pasted together, even to an extreme.  There is not much respect for each Bible message’s intent, the text becomes fragmented, and the theme is often lost. This is a criticism of chronological reading plans. 

In contrast, these Unique Chronological Bible Studies try to keep the themes of each Scripture passage intact. Whenever possible, movement to a parallel Scripture occurs at a natural break in a narrative.  This respects the intent of each author’s message and helps cohesiveness. 

3. You can use you own Bible! read your own Bible

You may have an emotional attachment to your favorite book and resist trying something new.  With these unique chronological Bible studies, each corresponding reading enables you to follow the passages in your Bible without excessive flipping back and forth through pieces of Scripture passages. 

4. Easy to use

These Bible studies are intended to be completed in one year but may be completed over a longer time. Each lesson explains the meaning of the text so that you can understand and apply it to your situation. While each Bible study has been carefully researched, it is not primarily an academic study; it seeks to connect God’s truth to your life. 

5. Theological Words are simplified and explained

It is easy to just pass over theological terms, confused about their meaning. Now readers can understand the significance  behind them. Explaining them in simple terminology gives a fresh perspective.

6. It unwraps the mystery

The Jewish people to whom the Scriptures were written knew their history. For the most part, they also knew how the poetical and prophetical writings contributed to it. In today’s world, however, new or typical church attenders do not understand much of this or how it applies to them. 

These Unique Bible studies easily explain the texts and their relationships to one another and suggest  legitimate applications of God’s Word. 

7. Knowing the Old Testament prevents misinterpretation and application.

Since many are confused about the Old Testament, they prefer to just read the New Testament. Occasionally, they may look for a verse in the Old Testament to prove their point; however, they do not know the context or to whom it is addressed. This can lead to harmful teaching or dangerous conclusions. However, in principle, many Old Testament Scriptures apply to us because the Bible says all Scripture is profitable (2 Timothy 3:16). This demonstrates a need for a chronological understanding of Scripture texts. 

These Unique Chronological Bible Studies help the reader understand each Scripture text’s meaning, to  whom it directly applies, and what principles non-Jewish people may apply. 

8. Chronological Bibles help Christians understand and explain the entire gospel message

They begin with who God is and what he is like. This is where we must start in today’s society—many know little to nothing about God and the Bible. 

9. This tool helps you get answers to the “Why” questions you have of the Bible.

 You will see the context of why the Bible authors wrote what they did, and the truths of Scripture will suddenly dawn upon you. These Unique Bible Chronological Bible Studies aid the reader in discovering these relationships. 

10. You can learn more when you study a larger body of text 

You have heard of the saying, “you can’t see the forest for the trees,” haven’t you? Many sermons or Bible studies will focus on just a few verses of Bible text, and you may have little idea as to the context. Whenever you study a larger body of Scripture, you can see why something fits and how particular verses fit into the overall narrative. This is an eye-opening experience.

11. They include maps, timelines, chronological notes, charts, and pictures

This provides an understanding of the background and chronology of each day’s Bible reading. Many Bible passages make a point of mentioning dates, people, and circumstances. When these are compared with world history timelines, they help confirm the trustworthiness of God’s Word. 

12. These Unique Chronological Bible studies are great for discipleship, small groups, and personal use.

  •  Be awestruck as you read about the creation of the world and God’s redemptive plan.

  • Learn how the Psalms fit into the life of David and the history of Israel.

  • See how the prophets influenced the kings and people of Israel and Judah.

  • Witness the life of Christ as all four gospels are woven together into one unforgettable            story.

  • Travel along with the Apostle Paul as the early church struggles and expands across                the world.

  • Draw encouragement from the early apostles’ writings as they were persecuted and                learn how you can win in the end!

  • Get to know God from the very beginning. You will see how people interacted with God and each other and see how they struggled just like you. You will soon discern what applies to Israel and how God’s Word applies to your life. What you learn can change your life forever. 

13. It makes sense to study the Bible chronologically, and it is important to God.

In the Old Testament, a chronological approach begins with God’s creation of everything in the heavens and earth. Afterward, there is a historical sequence of events from the earliest civilizations’ development through Israel’s destruction and deportation from their land. This 4,000 year period covers the books of Genesis–Esther (the Kings and Chronicles occurring in the same era). The poetical books— Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Solomon are, for the most part, not chronological because of the genre. The major and minor prophets, Isaiah–Malachi, are generally chronological but have many exceptions because of their type of literature. 

In the New Testament, Luke writes to Theophilus (a highly respected man), a chronological account of Jesus’ life.  After this, Luke shares with him the history of Christ’s ministry through the apostles and church leaders (the book of Acts). He records the adventures as they happened. Still, because today’s church attenders do not know the culture or language recorded 2,000 years ago, they need help.  

Jesus said to his disciples after his resurrection

These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me (Luke 24:44). 

Therefore, Jesus was saying the Old Testament is essential to know and understand. That is best done chronologically. 

The Apostle Paul states that the Law (meaning Genesis–Deuteronomy) is our tutor to faith (Galatians 3:24-25). How can we know God’s essence and character, man’s nature, and why there was a need for Christ’s sacrifice if we do not know even the first five books Moses wrote? How can we know about our adversary, the devil? How can we learn about God’s covenants and future plans for Israel and the rest of the world without the Old Testament? 

The book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ has many Old Testament prophecies that will be fulfilled. The Old Testament gives us some understanding of coming events. 

If the chronology of the Scriptures is important to God, it should be for Christ-followers. These Unique Chronological Bible Studies help new and typical church attendees better understand the Scriptures and how it relates to them. If that sound good for you,  Join us! 

14. You will receive a comparable education to that of a first year Bible college student.

In fact, it will probably be better because these Unique chronological Bible studies cover the content themes of every Bible book with added supplemental material for more insights.

15. The online version is totally free.

Don’t let that stop you. Free in this case does not mean junk. Each Bible study has been thoroughly researched and is quality through ang through. They are just fulfilling the mission to help people understand the Word of God so that they can obey the Lord. If you want to pay for that with donations, perhaps this can be worked out on a future day. Just enjoy it, no strings attached.  See some samples of these chronological Bible studies
