Valuable Information About Biblical Timeline

By Francis Riggs


The Bible has a history that spans millennia since the beginning of time. As is recounted in Genesis, in the beginning there was nothingness then God made something (the great galaxies), out of void empty spaces. After creation, the Biblical Timeline, and no single man can be able to tell when it will end because the Bible says that God is the alpha and omega, therefore he is the one that can tell the end from the beginning. Christians should familiarize themselves with events that are part of this time-line.

Incidents that can be considered as divinely inspired have often shaped history. An important part of the timeline, is the rise and fall of the great empires such as Babylon, Persia, Media, Roman and Greece. These have all been described in the Bible yet there is sufficient documentation that they actually existed. As a matter of fact, the remnants of the Roman Empire are in existence until today and according to Christian revelation, they may actually come together at a future date if such an occurrence has not happened already.

This is a topic of immense interest to any individual who is a Bible scholar. There is a lot that can be studied in this vast and great book. No man can say he has everything spiritual, at his fingertips. Learning is a continuous process and even scholars are aware of that fact. These learned individuals are always carrying out research work and in the process revealing findings and insights that shape the world of academia, in a positive way.

This subject matter is not only of interest to pastors, bishops, and theology professors. The common person who has an interest in expanding his knowledge bank should also find out more about the topic. It is always great to be the informed person who can easily participate in any talk whether it is a talk about spiritual issues or secular matters.

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.

The interest of any Christian centers mainly in the New Testament although many Christians are also interested in the old dispensation. For Jews and Muslims, the main focus is the old testament. Anybody can have interest in this sequel of happenings either as part of an academic process or just as a way to question things in the quest for the truth.

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.
