Bible Question:
I just finished my masters and am taking a year or so off to study and prepare for my PhD. I would like to know a good book series to get into the history, authors, and exposition of the books of the bible. My goal is to read a book about each book of the bible, as I read the bible in a year...my goal is to become more intimate with the word from a Christian biblical based direction. I am sure there are series written by great men...I am having a difficult time finding good sources. Thanks |
Bible Answer: Hi Egosophist You couldn't get a better Christian, biblical based direction, than the Bible itself. God inspired, faith based believers to write it for us, to be interpreted for us by the Holy Spirit. It is not another book of Philosophy, it isn't like any other book, in the entire world, it is a book from the Creator of the Universe, to us individually, if you open your heart, "God will talk to you personally". Just like when He talked to Adam, in the Garden. But if all you want, is a bunch of head knowledge, from other people's viewpoint then by all means, get a lot of books. There are literally tons of them out there. If that's your goal, then this one should do the trick. JESUS REDISCOVERED By MALCOLM MUGGERIDGE Have yourself a good year or so. JIM |
