An Interpretation Of The Bible's Coherence

The Bible has often been called the most remarkable piece of literature the world has ever seen. It has had a tremendous effect on the writings of a great number of authors the world over and has become part of the fabric of society in the English-speaking world. Most Chinese, however, are unacquainted with the Bible and hold the misconception that the Bible is simply a collection of unrelated stories rather than one coherent book consisting of many individual parts. The present work exposits the coherence of the Bible, otherwise known as Scripture. Research of the Bible through the exploration of (a) its main theme (God's redemption of humankind from evil), (b) its central character (Jesus Christ) and (c) abundant evidences of coherence within the text itself will show clearly that the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, is one integrated coherent book, containing one continuously unfolding story—God's redemption of humankind.
