Looking back upon History

       As I have been given the opportunity to read chronologically through the Bible this year, I am at the point in the scriptures where God is portraying His plan to His people ahead of time.  Many times, it can be confusing as to the exact meaning of the prophecy, but it is exciting and challenging to find how the verses spoken and taught during church relate to the actual history of that time.   The scriptures also explain the politics and economics and history of the time which is what I actually enjoyed as I studied my history, philosophy and economics during my junior year at Fairfield University.
