Episode 008 - The Bible - The Beginning to the End - History Lessons - Part 1

History is the story of man. God is in history, but He is working
behind the scenes. History is the story of man's ongoing cycle of
failure, the sequence of the rise and fall of one empire and
kingdom after another – over and over again!


Firstly, these historical books of the Bible trace the history of
a single nation with a special ministry – a representative nation
– Israel. What happens to them is a picture of all the dangers
that men will encounter anywhere.


Secondly, these historical books give a special illustration of
the perils, pressures and problems which come upon every
Christian believer, as they attempt to walk the life of faith. It
is very important to know our enemies. These historical books
show us the perils which beset the life of faith, and the means
of victory over them.
