A Closer Look At Christianity's Main Themes

Peter J Bylsma,

About this book

Most people don't understand the Bible's main themes because they haven't had the timeor patience to read and study such a long and complicated book. After the author read theBible again more closely and analytically, he was surprised by what he discovered, both whatit said and what it didn't say.

The 19 chapters of The Bible I Never Knew present facts about the Bible and its context andconcise summaries of its major themes. The book relies on more than 6, 000 scripture versesto illustrate the depth of what was written on the topics. This thematic approach helpsreaders gain a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of the scriptures.

The book has three parts and a set of appendices.
