The first event in the story, or Gospel, of Jesus was the Plan of Redemption. The Bible says that the Plan of Redemption was made before the "foundation of the world" Rev. 13:8. It was a plan that would be used to rid the whole universe of sin, and to save any who would completely trust God. "From the beginning, God and Christ knew of the apostasy ...
Lucifer, the one who would become Satan, was created by Jesus to be the highest ranking angel in Heaven. He was created perfect, with no tendency to sin, yet with the ability to freely choose to serve God or not to serve Him. (For further study, read The Origin of Evil. Also, see Ezekiel 28:12-15 and Angels.)
The next event cannot be explained. There is no reason that it happened. Lucifer sinned. (Ezekiel 28:13-19) If there could be found a reason, it would cease to be sin. The highest ranking angel in Heaven began to covet the honor that was given to God's Son, Jesus. Lucifer accused God of being unfair, of limiting the freedom of all created beings by...
About 6,000 years ago God created the inhabitants of the Earth. (See the Creation Timelinefor details.)
Lucifer wanted to be in charge of all of the "stars of God", to be "like God" (Isaiah 14:12-14), but of all the worlds that God had created in the whole universe, Lucifer could only win control of the newly created earth. He deceived Eve (Genesis 3:1-24 & The First Great Deception) and because Adam sinned also, Lucifer gained control of all people....
In the next 2,000 years man became so wicked that God sent a worldwide flood. This kept man from living such a long, cruel life, and it also protected many unborn people from having to deal with all this cruelty. (See Genesis 6-8, Did God Make a Mistake? and the Noah and the Flood Timeline.)
Satan’s fall from Heaven actually came in two stages. Stage 1 was when he and his angel followers were physically expelled or “cast out” of Heaven, and “sent” to this Earth. Satan was evidently allowed to come back to Heaven occasionally as the representative of fallen Earth. This can be seen in the story of Job (see Job 1& 2). Satan intentionally ...
About 2,000 years after the Flood, and about 4,000 years after Creation, God became a man. (See the Life of Jesus Timeline, the Ministry of Jesus Timeline and the Passion Week Timelinefor more details.) To fully understand why God (the Son - Jesus) would want to become a man is to fully understand the Gospel, but the love that God has for the whole...
After Jesus rose from the dead He returned to Heaven and according to the prophecy found in Daniel 8& 9 has already started the judgment of all humans (both the dead and the living).
After some of the devastating effects of sin are shown, Jesus will return to rescue His people from this earth and take them to live with Him for 1,000 years. This will include those people spoken about in the next section. (See the Second Coming Timelinefor more information.)

This series of short Bible timeline lessons approaches the problem of learning a basic sequence of events from a different perspective. These lessons on Bible chronology center on the lives, using easy to remember dates, of seven well-known characters in God's word.
Our Bible Timeline Chart is a comprehensive guide that includes important dates based on the King James Authorized version with information from both the New and Old Testament books.

This chronology more closely aligns with the findings of archaeology and historical critical methods of dating biblical texts. However, as noted above, no chronological system is perfect, so the following timeline may act as a general guide, but not an infallible one. Play Video.
1 Samuel. 2 Samuel. 1 Kings. 2 Kings. The books of 1 & 2 Chronicles tell the same stories as 1 & 2 Kings (they run parallel to each other), but 1 & 2 Chronicles give the reasons behind the event.
Sep 14, 2018 · Four chapters of biblical history. The New Testament begins by splitting the Old Testament events into roughly three chapters ( Matthew 1:17 ), and beginning a new era. These chapters are still useful for understanding the Bible’s timeline today.
