How to get 100% out of this book

1. Visual aid! Snap a picture and memorize it!
This book provides a variety of information, including pictures, maps, and diagrams, to help readers understand and study with interest.
If you remember each visual aid that corresponds to the text, it will become an image and you will be able to easily recall the content of the text later.

2 Say goodbye to complicated place names! Meet the Bible on a map.
Key place names that appear in the Bible without fail, such as Galilee, Antioch, and Mount Sinai, although their exact locations are unknown.
Meet these key locations, biblical events, and people on a map! Each time you see a map, try drawing it in the air with your finger or on a blank piece of paper.
The next time you read the Bible, a three-dimensional map will be drawn in your mind.

3. Studying alone? Good! Studying in a group? Very good!
This book is designed so that you can master it on your own in one day.
However, if you study in groups, you can expect greater results.
People who are interested in studying the Bible should gather together and study one chapter a day or one chapter a week.
However, if you have started studying this book, it is best to focus and master it as quickly as possible to grasp the overall flow of the Bible.

4. Share the good things! Remember them again while talking!
You will get the greatest benefit from this book if you teach it to others after you have mastered it.
Teach someone what you have studied within three days.

5 Read this book from beginning to end!
This book is divided into three parts: the Old Testament, the Intertestamental Period, and the New Testament.
But don't start reading about the New Testament just because it seems easy.
You can grasp the overall flow of the Bible only by reading it sequentially from Chapter 1.

Embark on an exciting Bible adventure!
- Pastor Kim Eung-guk, editor-in-chief of Gyu Jang

There was a time when the ability to read and write was power.
Mastering ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs or Sumerian cuneiform script was the path to entry into the power elite at the time.
The reason the Joseon Dynasty's aristocracy opposed King Sejong's creation of Hangul was because they believed that if the common people were able to read and write, the power they had concentrated would collapse.

This is also true in understanding the Bible.
The medieval Catholic Church held onto the Bible only in Latin, allowing a select group of clergy to monopolize the interpretation of the Bible and block common people's access to it, thereby seizing religious power.
The common people were encouraged to receive religious education not through the Bible, but only through sacred paintings and icons.
The hidden and closed Bible was accessible only to a religious elite with specialized training, who regarded it as sacred and used it as a tool of their power.

The person who revolutionarily opened the closed Bible into an open Bible was the religious reformer Martin Luther.
He translated the Latin Bible into German so that workers, farmers, and small businessmen could read and understand the Bible freely.
The clergy's exclusive right to the Bible was destroyed.
A movement was launched to ensure that everyone, regardless of wealth or social standing, could easily access the Bible in their native language, and now “the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea” (Isaiah 11:9).
However, just because the Bible has been translated into one's own language does not mean that it automatically becomes an open Bible.
The Bible becomes open only when it is presented in an easy-to-understand manner so that anyone can easily understand it.

Driving has become more convenient now that navigation has been introduced.
Even if you don't know the road, you can easily reach your destination by following the navigation system's directions.
So, if we can guide us through the complex 66 books of the Bible, like a navigation system, we will be able to explore the Bible without getting lost in its maze.
We need a 'spiritual aerial map' that shows where the main stream, tributary, and side stream of the history of salvation, which flows powerfully from Genesis to Revelation, is.
We also need a detailed photo that shows the forest but zooms in on the trees with an insert screen.
The author of the Bible Guide Navigation that satisfies both of these conditions is Terry Hall.
He divides the Bible into three sections: history, experience, and prophecy, and guides us systematically and very easily.

Terry Hall taught the Bible to new students who did not know much about the Bible for many years at Moody Bible Institute in the United States, and helped them establish a systematic knowledge of the Bible.
He is also famous as a minister who travels to many churches and Christian organizations to teach the Bible through audiovisual means.

The panorama of the Bible he unfolds fits perfectly into my head.
He shows a three-dimensional method of studying the Bible.
It shows the great flow of history and how it unfolds, and it also three-dimensionally explains where and when it unfolds in the Bible.
Here, the key themes and central figures of each book of the Bible are remembered in a fun way through association.
If you follow his guidance and read this book, the main flow of the 66 books of the Bible will be engraved in your heart like a photograph.

Even those who wandered around looking for the books of Zephaniah and Habakkuk in the Old Testament, or who would turn pale if told to look for the books of Philemon and Jude in the New Testament, will be able to grasp the structure and system of the Bible by reading this book.

Even if it is your first time traveling to a foreign country where you don't know anyone, if you find a good guide, you can have a fulfilling trip that broadens your horizons.
If you're embarking on your first journey through the 66 books of the Bible today, Terry Hall will be a skilled Bible guide for you.
Now, join us on our 'Bible Field Trip' guided by the skilled Terry Hall.
An exciting Bible adventure awaits you.
