5-TRACK BIBLE READING PLAN: Explanation
In this reading plan the entire Bible has been divided into five separate tracks corresponding to five major sections of Scripture. The daily readings from each track consist of major narratives or divisions within these sections of Scripture. Reading large portions of Scripture in this manner will give you a better appreciation for the overall flow of Scripture and how the various parts of the Bible fit together.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Section 1: Beginnings: Genesis to Ruth (236 Chapters)
This section talks about creation, the origin of sin, the flood, the calling of Abraham, the lives of Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. It talks about how the people of Israel went down to Egypt and came back through a mighty deliverance under the leadership of Moses, the institution of the Passover, the giving of the ten commandments and various other laws, the setting up of God's tabernacle, and the conquest of the Promised Land under the leadership of Joshua. Finally, it talks about the period when judges ruled the land and about the marriage of Boaz to Ruth, who together became the ancestors of David.
Section 2: Nation Building: 1 Samuel to Job (242 Chapters)
This section talks about how the nation of Israel consolidated itself, first under Samuel, who was the last judge of Israel and then under Saul, the first king of Israel. It gives us a detailed account of David's life and reign; followed by the reign of his son, Solomon, and his building of the temple of God in Jerusalem. It talks about how the kingdom was divided into two and how they kept sinning against God and how God finally allowed Assyrian and Babylonian armies to destroy their nation. This section also contains the stories of the rebuilding of the Jerusalem wall and the temple under the leadership of Nehemiah and Ezra, when the people returned from exile and also carries the story of Esther, who spoke up for God's people in crisis. Finally this section ends with the story of Job's life; his loss, suffering and restoration.
Section 3: Poetry and Wisdom: Psalms to Song of Songs (201 Chapters)
This section begins with the book of Psalms which are songs and prayers of worship. This section also contains the book of Proverbs which is full of wisdom for practical living. Then comes the book of Ecclesiastes, which is a philosophical reflection on life with the conclusion that fearing God and keeping His commandments is what matters at the end. The final book in this section is Song of Songs which praises the beauty of love in marriage.
Section 4: Prophets: Isaiah to Malachi (250 Chapters)
This section contains the writings of the prophets. These books contain some great visions of God, great prayers, great promises, great warnings, great judgments and great prophecies of the salvation to come. There are many great references to the restoration of the people of God from exile and judgment, the plan of the new temple, and the coming rule of the Messiah at the end of Time. The Book of Isaiah has been a favorite of Christians down through the centuries with its famous prophecies about Jesus' birth and death. The Books of Ezekiel, Daniel and Zechariah are vital in understanding the message of Revelation and God's plan for the end times. Malachi is the last book of the Old Testament. His was, in a sense, the last voice of prophecy in the Old Testament. For the next 400 years there were no prophets until the coming of John the Baptist who announced the arrival of Jesus Christ, “the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!'”
Section 5: New Testament: Matthew to Revelation (260 Chapters)
This section contains the story of the birth, life, work, death, resurrection and ascension of the Lord Jesus Christ. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John are the four writers of the gospels containing the story of Jesus' life. The Book of Acts is the story of the beginning of the Church; starting with the mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit on believers on the day of Pentecost. Then we have a lot of letters or epistles written by Paul, Peter, James, John and Jude. Finally we have the Book of Revelation written by John while he was at the island of Patmos in exile. It gives us the strong conviction that God is on His throne, and that every event of history is moving towards a God-destined end. It tells us that God will intervene in world affairs and bring an end to war, sin, suffering and death. It also speaks of the final doom of Satan and all his agents who led the world astray. The book of Revelation closes with the promise that Jesus is coming soon!
