Many people want to read and study the Bible but don’t know where to start, or when they do read it, they don’t connect how the events, people, and places fit together and quickly lose interest. And some don’t wholeheartedly believe what the Bible says. Yet International Christian Embassy Jerusalem USA Director Susan Michael says the Bible is the most exciting book on the planet—and understanding the story behind the stories changes everything. In these pages you

MY THOUGHTS.....
"Interpreting the New Testament without a proper understanding of the Old Testament is like coming into a play at intermission and wondering why we don't understand what's happening or who certain characters are. The Old Testament is the foundation of the New Testament---and our faith."
I know that many people believe that the New Testament is what Christians need to live by but we must never forget that the Old Testament was given to us for a purpose. All of the events recorded in the Old Testament set the groundwork for the coming of Christ! Now, there is a guide to help us better understand that groundwork. Dr. Susan Michael points out God's relationship with both the Jews and the Gentiles when He began His plan for our Salvation, and she reminds us just how important the nation of Israel is to all Christian believers!
This book has eight chapters that are filled with maps, pictures, and easy-to-understand text. An Old Testament Timeline and Recommended Resources are included at the end and there is also a link for a free downloadable resource that offers so much more information. The tips and biblical concepts are keys to a better understanding of God's Word, and I recommend Encounter the 3D Bible as a wonderful resource for both novice and mature Christians!
I received a complimentary copy from the publisher via FrontGate Media. There was no obligation for a positive review.
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
