Ep. 92 | How to Study Prophecy
Manage episode 432984651 series 3420028
When people first start studying the Bible, they often find the books of prophecy the most confusing or hard to understand.
The last 17 books of the Old Testament are full of messages from God communicated through hand-selected prophets. The writings of these prophets used powerful imagery and language to communicate God’s messages to His people.
Like most literary styles, prophecy would have been easily relatable to the original hearers, but what about us today?
How do we study prophecy? Join the Chara Project team as they provide an intro to the prophets and their books, explain the purpose of prophecy, and how to get the most out of it as you read the Bible. If you’ve ever wondered how to study Biblical prophecy, this episode is for you!
