Jesus Christ.  You have probably heard of Him, but who was He? Is Jesus God?  Is He the Son of God? Was He both deity and man? How important is the birth of Jesus? Is Jesus birth more important than His death? What happened to Jesus after He died? Was Jesus really raised from the dead or is He still in a grave somewhere near the city of Jerusalem?

One of the most fascinating people of all time is Jesus Christ and you may learn about Him through a free Bible study course.

The Old Testament prophets.  One of the greatest sections of the Bible involves men who were called "prophets."

Old Testament prophets are often classified as "major" or "minor."  Some think "major prophets" describes the most important prophets.  The truth is that "major prophets" were prophets who wrote a lot of material, and "minor prophets" were prophets who wrote a lot less material.

Israel had been a united nation for many years.  God was its "King" for several years.  Then the time came when the nation of Israel wanted an earthly king to be like the surrounding nations.  God allowed the nation of Israel to have a 40 year reign under Saul.  Then David reigned for 40 years.  Solomon then reigned over Israel for 40 more years.  Then the kingdom of Israel "split" into northern Israel.
