Eden to Eternity A Biblical Odyssey of Rebellion and Redemption

From Adam to Jesus: A Biblical Timeline of Global History, Migrations, and Myths by JW Carpenter

Embark on a captivating journey through biblical history with From Adam to Jesus, a vibrant exploration of humanity's story from creation to redemption. Rooted in a young-earth Christian worldview, this book traces the lives of pivotal figures-Adam, Cain, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, and Jesus-from Eden's dawn (4004 BC) to the resurrection (30 AD). Blending Scripture with archaeological discoveries, global migrations, and cultural myths, author JW Carpenter reveals humanity's persistent rebellion against God-seen in Cain's murder, Babel's tower, and Rome's decay-and God's unyielding grace, culminating in Jesus' redemptive sacrifice (John 3:16).

Discover how ancient artifacts, like Çatalhöyük's figurines and Ur's flood layer, echo biblical truths, while myths like the Enuma Elish reflect distorted memories of God's story. With vivid prose, reflective questions, and a timeline reconciling secular and biblical dates, this book invites readers to confront their own pride and embrace a God-centered life. Perfect for seekers, believers, and study groups, From Adam to Jesus is a call to see God's glory in history and find your place in His eternal plan. Includes appendices on prophecy odds and biblical locations.
