From Genesis to Revelation, from the beginning of time to the early church, from the first promise of a Saviour to the promise that one day that Saviour will return – this book spans all of time. Find out about how the God of all time spoke to his people and still speaks today through his Word. This absorbing book is split into 6 colour–coded sections: Creation to the Promised Land Living in the Promised Land From One Kingdom to Two Exile and Return The Messiah The Early Church The eighteen illustrated timelines place Bible events side–by–side with other historical events, helping readers to understand how biblical history fits with other historical accounts. These timelines also draw together events from different books of the Bible, clearly showing, for example, when in Israel and Judah’s history the prophets were speaking, and what else was happening at the time. The timelines are interspersed with descriptions of notable people, maps and illustrations depicting key locations and occasions, as well as explanations of why certain incidents are so important. Throughout the book there are icons drawing the reader’s attention to: Promise of the Messiah Covenants that God made Judah’s kings & prophets Israel’s kings & prophets Seeing these things laid out in such a clear format helps to identify the threads of redemptive history that are woven throughout the Bible. Written and designed by the same people who created the popular God’s Timeline, this companion book will help young and old readers alike to understand the chronology of the Bible. It also includes a pull–out poster of the whole timeline, and the main heroes and villains mentioned in the Bible.Trade ReviewIt is no small challenge to wrap our minds around the thousands of years of history that fall between Genesis 1 and Revelation 22. Linda Finlayson's God's Bible Timeline is a noble and effective attempt to help us do that very thing. Using text, graphics, and timelines, it seamlessly describes and displays both the great story and the wider context of the Bible. -- Tim Challies (Author, ‘Seasons of Sorrow’)Linda Finlayson has a great gift for this kind of explanation, and her work, supplemented with delightful color illustrations and charts, makes this an ideal gift for young students of scripture — or for those who have the privilege of guiding children in their exploration of God’s Word. -- Jonathan Master (President, Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary, South Carolina)This book looks to be a most suitable help for all wanting to understand the flow of God's salvation history. -- Peter Barnes (Pastor, Author, Lecturer, Revesby Presbyterian Church, Revesby, New South Wales, Australia)Our Triune God reveals Himself through His mighty deeds in history. This book provides a wonderful series of timelines, maps and other visuals to help us place those events in their historical and geographical context. Along the way we can follow God’s redemptive plan in Christ, from Eden right through to the spread of the early church. -- Sharon James (Social Policy Analyst, The Christian Institute) No doubt, this is a book you will go to again and again in answering your children’s many questions about God’s saving message. Parents, get yourself a copy. You cannot go wrong when you invest in this kind of spiritual instruction for your children. The rewards will outlive you! -- Conrad Mbewe (Pastor, Kabwata Baptist Church, Kabwata, Zambia; Founding Chancellor, African Christian University, Lusaka, Zambia)... a real treasure ... I like to have an organizational picture in my head when I’m introducing people to the riches of Scripture. This book helps me with that, and I think it will help you too. -- Ligon Duncan (Chancellor and CEO, Reformed Theological Seminary)This resource is a wonderful tool that has the potential to guide many through God’s Word in a way that will help them see the whole picture of God’s revelation. The church is once again in Linda’s debt. -- David Hogg (President, Phoenix Seminary, Scottsdale, Arizona) Clearly written, with helpful commentary on key people, events, context, and theological significance, and beautifully illustrated, this book will be a great resource for parents and Sunday school teachers as they seek to engage children with the biblical story. -- Carl R. Trueman (Professor of Biblical and Religious Studies, Grove City College, Pennsylvania)Here is a ‘Big Book’ on big stuff. Paul says that God’s ways are ‘untrackable’—and they are, but he has left some of his ‘tracks’ in redemptive history and Linda Finlayson has pursued them in this attractive, colourful, vibrant tome, in which she has pulled together the strings of biblical history and in such concise form has placed them in your lap. -- Dale Ralph Davis (Respected Author and Old Testament Scholar) This lovely and well-organized book will be a great help for people young and old to fit together the pieces of the history of God’s saving works so that they can see more clearly what God has accomplished in his Son. -- Joel R.
