Easy To Read Bible Summary For Teens And Adults

Have you ever wanted to get an understanding of the entire Bible for yourself or to teach the Bible to your children? Many Christians hope to have this understanding, but for whatever reason, it can be too overwhelming to read the Bible completely. Easy-to-Read Bible Overview for Teens and Adults is a Bible summary that covers all of the major stories and themes of the Bible from the first words in the book of Genesis to the last words in the book of Revelation. It is written in clear and simple language that is easy to understand. It is intended for a person who always wanted to get a general understanding of the entire Bible, but for whatever reason, never read all of it. It is also ideal for teens to learn all about the Bible on their own, or for parents to use to teach the Bible to their children. Interwoven through the book is also an explanation of how all of the Bible connects together and points to Jesus Christ. While an overview is never a replacement for reading the Bible, summaries can help us as we visit the actual word of God and read it regularly. As a biblical reference, Easy-to-Read Bible Overview for Teens and Adults is an excellent way to introduce the Bible to teens who may not yet be able to read the entire Bible on their own—and for parents, too, who need an extra hand.

Sample chapter: Book of John About this book John's Gospel is one of the four Gospels. 'Gospel' means 'good news'. The Gospels are the books that tell us about Jesus' life on earth. John was one of the three disciples who knew the Lord Jesus Christ best. John called himself 'the disciple that Jesus loved'. We think that John wrote his Gospel in the city called Ephesus. He wrote it some years after Matthew, Mark and Luke wrote their Gospels. He wrote it about 70 years after Christ's birth. John's Gospel is different from the other three Gospels. It does not describe many things that the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke do describe. But it does include many things that are not in the other Gospels. John tells us much more about who Jesus was. John shows us Jesus as the Son of God - the only person who can cause us to live. John teaches us more about God's Spirit, too. At the beginning of his Gospel, John calls Jesus 'the Word'. Chapter 1 The Word became human 1 In the beginning, the Word was already there. The Word was with God. The Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 God made all things by the Word. God did not make anything without him. 4 It is the Word who causes us to live. And because of this, he was the light to all people. 5 The light shines in the dark, and the dark cannot put out the light.
