Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Make Learning The Bible Timeline Fun

By Neil Baulch


When you are trying to learn about the Bible and get everything into a proper perspective, things can get a bit muddled at times and in order to keep it all straight, the Bible Timeline can go a long way into making things much easier to grasp. Why struggle with time frames when you can have everything at the tip of your fingers?

Anyone who has ever read the Bible knows that for the most part, you are not given actual dates of happenings in a format that we understand easily. You more or less have to figure them out based on the era that they are referring to in the stories. This can get confusing if you are not learned in the complete Bible.



Where was the Apostle Paul when Rome crushed Jerusalem? A Bible timeline will highlight all the major people involved, making it easier to visualize. Any relevant or more in depth information can be on the chart too in small lettering for the teacher to see. A great tool for teachers or those who want to learn more about the Bible.



Complication is the last thing that you want to worry about with complicated ancient history. If you have the ability to point and click, then you are able to use a Bible timeline on screen or chart. The convenience of having everything on your monitor and at your fingertips is something that is entirely too good to pass up.



One of the best aspects to a good digital Bible timeline is that once you have downloaded it, you can actually print it out to any size that you want or that your computer printer can handle. If you do not wish to print it out, you can get your research from it by using your computer monitor. Whichever media that is right for you would be compatible with this timeline.



No longer do you have to listen to a hundred experts give a hundred different answers to the information in the Bible. A Bible timeline is going to put into perspective the Bible and the events that took place. You can then teach these to your children or church.
