Amazing book

The book is an amazing tool to have while you are reading the Bible. I absolutely love it!!!!

Helped me to start

I was looking for the book & workbook locally but thankfully Thrift had both so I could start the online study group on time, I did end up ordering a new copy because the used workbooks typically have the answers started in the 1st few chapters but it was great to have so I could get started & being an older version than the new ones it has an extra section of things to research on your own

Loved it!! For any Bible believer that wants to grow in the Word. Very amazing insights. Old Testame

It’s a must have for all Bible believers and active in their faith in Jesus Christ. Chuck dissects the Bible with such meaningful ways. He points out many of the Holy Spirit’s underlying details missed by believers who aren’t active in their Bible studies. A massive amount of information - a jumpstart in sanctification.

"Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in Your Law" Psalm 119:18

Wow. Most of my life I would've said the Bible was my all-time favorite book, but out of obligation (as a Christian, I thought it had better be). In reality, while I did enjoy the Book, I didn't understand many parts of it, and really didn't know it in depth. That has all changed. I read Chuck Missler's book, Learn the Bible in 24 Hours, about a year ago, and it set me off on an exciting path of discovery and knowledge. Three of the 'themes' that Missler repeatedly hits on, that I have taken with me every step of this journey, are these: 1) as one can look at nature and not help but be awed by its power, beauty and syncronicity, and know that a Creator had to be behind it, so can one look at the Holy Scriptures and come to the same conclusion. Seeing the syncronicity of the Bible (how upon deep investigation, seeming contradictions come to purposeful insight, its many patterns and inter-connectedness), the beauty of the Bible (in its behind the scenes details and imagery, and beauty of the Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic languages), and the power of the Bible (to relevantly apply to our lives today and change them in amazing ways!), one can only come to realize that a Higher Power is behind it. This truly is the Word of God. 2)Acts 17:11, 'the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they eagerly studied the Law everyday to see if what Paul said was true'. Missler applies this principle to his readers, saying 'Acts 17:11 tells you to not listen to what Chuck Missler tells you, but rather look it up in the Bible on your own. Be a Scripture student!'. (I love that!) 3) this will be an expensive lesson for you. Not in the cost of the book, but in the cost of your preconceived notions. Many ideas I had as a kid from Sunday School about the Bible are not exactly accurate, and Missler unabashedly points them out. This book led me to his website, khouse.org, to purchase more material from him, including a CDrom study of Revelation, with over 30 hours of info. He has a dry sense of humour and a thorough understanding of what he's talking about. I highly recommend this book, and other material from Missler, for Christian, seeker and sceptic. An eye-opening book!

Excellent Book

Chuck Missler has done it again. This book is very informative and a great resource for anyone who is searching for a better understanding of the bible. If you buy this book you will not be disappointed!

The best Biblical Introduction/Overview

Dr. Missler does a phenomenal job of summarizing such a complex and important topic in terms for the layman. The views he presents are definitely biblically founded, though not always popoular within even christian circles. If you are looking for a door to begin your journey through the Bible, this book is a wonderful introduction.Dr. Monty Ham

Most important book not called the Bible you'll ever read...

Everyone in the world is living in ignorance until they read this book. It is amazing what Chuck brings to light that 99% of people with PhD's in theology probably don't even realize. The is THE intellectual's approach to learning the Bible in 24 hours. If I were selling this book, I would offer a money-back guarantee: if you can read this, regardless of your faith or background, and not fall on your face before God...

Biblical Expose' from a Mathmatician's Point of View

Dr. Chuck Missler certainly did not miss his target with this easy reading factual approach to learning truths about the Bible. This book will leave many a skeptic running for a comeback so they aren't converted! When Dr. Missler writes, "We're going to reach far beyond earth's prehistory, beyond the mists of legend and folklore to discover the greatest drama of all literature." he isn't kidding! This former graduate from Annapolis and eventually Branch Chief of the Department of Guided Missles knows how to take aim and hit a target! He does so with "Learn the Bible in 24 hours"! It is a direct hit with informataion, facts, and mathmatical computations beyond your mind's ability to comprehend. This is a must read for scholars at every level of knowledge of the Bible. It will inform. It will enlighten. You will be exposed to facts you'll have to recken with for the rest of your life.
