The Bible is not about old tales that have little or no relevance in today's world. Actually, it is a living doctrine that has spanned millennia and is alive and breathing even at the present moment. Of course, there are moments of great historical and spiritual interest in the Biblical Timeline. This includes Jesus Christ being born as a man and man being expelled from the Garden of Eden. Every Christian should at least be aware of these two events and take a further step to know more about other occurrences that are part of this spiritual timeline. The beginning of everything is creation where God brought life to the emptiness that was all around.
Everyone has a different account of history depending on his faith or style of thinking. Christians, Muslims, and Jews always have the opinion that there is a divine hand behind every major global occurrence. Therefore, according to the Bible, the major world empires such as Babylonia and Media-Persia existed because there were pre-ordained by the Creator. The rise and fall of these transnational kingdoms is considered an important part of the bible time-line.
To the Bible scholar, this is a topic of interest. There are those who like digging through the sacred texts and finding more about the major occurrences in history. The research, findings and insights of such scholars has greatly shaped theology.
It is natural for men of the cloak to have intense interest on matters spiritual. However, anyone can choose to pursue the road of divine knowledge. It can be done as part of a spiritual journey, pure fun, quest for discovery or even that intense thirst for knowledge. Being informed on topics of great interest is something to be proud of. This makes it easy to be part of lofty conversations.
According to Bible history, there are two major chapters of history. These are old and new testament. The latter is the current dispensation that started with the birth of Jesus Christ. The birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus are considered miraculous by Christians.
Christians are very much interested in the New Testament but this is not to say that they are the only people who have interest in great Bible events. Adherents of Judaism and Islam have their eyes focused on the Old Testament because this is the part that mostly concerns them. This sequel has also attracted the interest of people who do not practice any faith because events such as the birth of Christ and the great flood are just too magnanimous to be ignored and there are those who are interested in revealing whether these events did take place.
This time-line would never be interesting without the constant struggle between good and bad that placed heroes and villains against each other. Even the casual reader is aware of the greatest villain of all time: Judas. The greatest moment of awe is resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Human history has been eventful with many highs and lows. The Bible is an account believed by adherents of the major faiths, as a true account of human history. It is an account of great spiritual men, fighters, villains, and events that changed the course of history.
