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.

Divinely inspired events have often times driven the course of history. At times, the threads of secular advancement have often times intertwined with what can be considered as biblically inspired happenings. Most importantly, predictions from the Holy Book about the rise and fall of Babylon, Persia and other great world empires, have actually been fulfilled. According to theologists, the present world is post-Roman Empire but there is talk about regrouping of the elements of the last great empire.

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.

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.

Bible timeline can be divided into old and new testament. The former is basically about the covenant with the people of Israel. The latter centers on the life and times of Jesus Christ who happened to shape history like no other man has done before. His birth was miraculous and his death was equally miraculous. He is considered as Savior of the world by Christians.

The Old Testament forms part of the core doctrine of Judaism and Islam. Christianity has both testaments and both are connected by prophesies in the old dispensation being fulfilled in the new dispensation. Many people including those who are not part of the three major religions have been interested in what believers say happened in days of the past. There are many who have undertaken to investigate the validity of such occurrences.

The timeline that is the bedrock of the major modern faiths has been characterized by moments of great upheaval and moments of awe such as the virgin birth of Jesus Christ. Of course, there has been heroes along the way and many villains. There has always been that constant struggle between the good and evil.

Humans have walked the earth for millennia. The Bible story is believed by many to be an account of the human story. According to biblical accounts, great spiritual men have risen and in the same breath, men of valor have caused tides of change.
