There have been many reactions from across the divide on the variety of Bible versions that are being circulated. According to the thinking of most people, most versions of the Chronological Bible fall short of sequentially arranging the events in their order of occurrence. In contrast they just record accounts anyhow and the result of this is confusion to readers.
The Jewish Septuagint has received acclaim from the vast majority as the credible original source of scripture. As a result, the closer a writing is to the Jewish masoretic texts and the Dead Sea Scrolls, the more scriptural will it be considered. These are the major documents trusted to contain the truth. The line of distinction though, is about salvation. While the Christians believe in the Messiahship of Jesus Christ, their Jewish counterparts postulate that since the time of the Patriarchal Abraham, the Messiah has not yet appeared.
Christians strongly believe that Jesus Christ came as the firstborn of the creator to bring salvation on earth. Most Christians though, do not know about how His birth came about, neither do they understand the essence of Biblical prophesies. In the book of Luke is a genealogy that explains His ancestry. He is clearly not the same as Isa Bin Miriam as the Quran readers claim.
To escape falling victim to such misguided and baseless teaching of confusion, it is advisable for you to carry out frequent personal study. Going to church on worship day only is not enough. It is good to attend worship services and listen to how the scripture is interpreted. However, you should also go ahead and conduct personal study from which you can get a lot of information. For example, it is one thing to know that in John 11:35 The Lord wept and another to discover the cause of His anguish in this particular setting.
To read the Bible Chronologically, you will need a reading plan. You can get one from the back of the old King James Version that can help you to finish all the sixty six books in a year. There is also a wide variety of devotional readings available in bookshops. These ones depend on the topic you want to study deeply within a given period, for instance, Holiness.
In modern versions, getting the sequence is possible by following the footnotes and study notes that come with the packages. This possibility has come about thanks to theological researchers who have spent sleepless nights and hours of study. As a result, it has become possible to understand concepts that appeared complicated before. Understanding thus becomes easy.
a sequential order of events in the scripture is not only about the books but also about their chapters and verses. The Holy scriptures thus becomes a complete story that one can read comfortably without any difficulty. Right from Genesis to revelation, the story flows to merge the Old and the New Testaments. The correlation between prophesies and the person of Jesus Christ thus can be deduced.
The major preoccupation of the chronology is for us to understand and unravel the mystery of Jesus Christ. He is right at the center of the Holy Bible and other stories and occurrences are only there to make us know more about Him. He is the one who was promised to David, foretold by prophets and born of a virgin. Through His death and resurrection men have hope of enjoying eternity.
