Publisher's Synopsis
The Bible is a simple story told in a complex way. For anyone who has been intimidated at the thought of reading the entire Bible from beginning to end, this book should make that story easier to understand. Ancient biblical storytelling and symbolism are explained in clear, simple, everyday language to make the meaning easier for anyone to comprehend.
The entire Bible was written so that everyone can know God's plan and how it has changed through the ages in response to the actions of mankind. Every book in the Bible is written for everyone to increase their learning and understanding, but not every book is written to everyone, and we must learn how to divide God's Word to understand what is relevant for today. "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (2 Tim. 2:15, emphasis added). This book will give you a basic understanding of the Bible and will teach you how to divide God's Word to make studying easier and less confusing.
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; by which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures. (1 Cor. 15:1-4)
