But this gets back to Randy's obvious question asked earlier. How could the
remote inhabitants of far away places before NT missionaries reached them
possibly read these books in the right order?
I think the only reasonable conclusion is that God intended His natural
revelation to be a universal and independent witness for Him in the OT era,
similar to the witness of the Holy Spirit in the church age.

The 2 books model is OK but it's important to read them in the right order.
Otherwise you're in the position of someone reading The Two Towers before
The Fellowship of the Ring: You won't know who the characters are & will
get confused about what's going on. My PSCF article "Reading God's Two
Books" at http://www.asa3.org/ASA/PSCF/2006/PSCF3-06Murphy.pdf may be of
interest here.
