Simple but Excellent Tool to tbe Introduction of Biblical Theology
For anyone interested to know how the 66 books of the Bible fit together to point towards salvation in Christ, this is a great tool to use.

Well Structured and Simple to Understand.
Having read 5 various books on this subject of the Kingdom of God, Mr. Roberts book was the most organized, structured, illustrated and understandable. It became the foundation for my own series on the Kingdom. A great first book since it lays the foundation necessary for understanding the more in depth books such as: Announcing the Kingdom and According to Plan.

Great overview of the whole bible
This book provided a wonderful overview of the entire bible in one book. Not an indepth study, but it was fun to read about the bible, all 66 books in one volume. It also helped in understanding how they all fit together and that the central theme is God's redemptive plan for mankind.
