I Want to Understand The Bible‪!‬

How many times have you decided to read it? So you start with Genesis and Exodus, stumble over hard-to-pronounce names and customs you don't understand, and quit ... again. You never "get it." If only the Bible made sense! What is the "Big Picture" anyway?

The Bible is one simple story. God's Promise. Adam and Eve sinned against God in the Garden of Eden. You probably read that in Genesis 3! Sin deserves death. Adam and Eve couldn't fix it. Then God promised to fix it. God promised to send His own Son. The Bible is the journal story of God's meticulous preparations to make the world ready to receive JESUS, the Son of God.

The Bible is alive with patterns and themes. And they all point to Jesus. It's all about Jesus. God began with one man named Abram. From that man, God grew a family into a nation. The nation Israel. One day, when God's meticulous plans were ready, God's Son was born in Israel. To a virgin in Bethlehem. The Bible is the story of Salvation. One Promise. One Way. One Savior. Details weave together in fascinating ways. The Bible is challenging. Intriguing. Inspiring. Life-changing.

God made a promise in Eden's Garden. To save sinners. God always keeps His promises. God sent His Son, JESUS. He lived. He bled. He died. He rose. He saved us.

If you truly want to understand the Bible, this book was written for you. You can do this! The "Big Picture" in small lessons. Study it. Think about it. Be changed by it.
