FACT: The nails in Jesusโ hands probably went through his wrists and not in the center of his hands as is traditionally shown. That is because the wrist has a cluster of nerves and bone that could support his weight on the cross. The nail would rip through his hand if put through the center.

For those serious about memorizing the Word of God, feel free to join my group, "Gird up your mind!" Thanks!!
please join my group memorize Gods word! thanks
I'm a competitive person.....Our group is #26 on the list of groups based on verses current. I'm trying to learn a few each day. Any interest in challenge ourselves to move up the list?
There are probably some of you out there that have many verses in John memorized and just need to go through them again.
Just for fun!!!
please join my new group called help in difficult
I have a rule for myself. If I get on my device to check email, FaceBook, whatever, I have to also do something on biblememory as well. That has worked well for me, causing me to practice many times a day.
Thanks for sharing, Aimswell and BuckeyeMike. I, too, enjoy listening to Bible memory songs. I have made Old and New Testament collections in my iTunes library (some were free, some I had to buy) with all the songs arranged in Biblical order. I have way over 1000 songs. I also print out a chapter at a time and use colored pencils to mark concepts and terms that stand out, or are repeated.
I like the idea of listening to a passage while doing chores, driving, etc.
Also while working on a long passage I write it out on a card, starting a new row for each verse: then I work on the verse, saying one phrase at a time, while doing step aerobics.
Another thing I do is count the periods in long passages, and then highlight and memorize the first word of each sentence.
When working on the "Memorize iI" phase, I will type as far as I can, and if I get stuck, I click retry. That way I get the first part memorized better before moving to the last part, where I will get hints.
Scripture songs are helpful too, I listen to songs by Patti Vaillant.
For any of you that use Spotify, there is a channel/station called New Testament Audio Bible (Streetlights Bible) by Scottie Bruh Williams. I listened to the John passages while walking for exercise. For chapters that I struggle with (chapter 6 - Bread of Life passages), I listen to them multiple times. I may even try to say them out loud, while listening.
Definitely the index cards though.
Would anyone like to share what strategies they use for Bible memory in addition to typing with biblememory.com?
Here are a few of mine:
I write them on index cards so I can practice during breaks while I'm substitute teaching (I only use the program on my laptop at home).
I print out the flash cards from this site then make a memory challenge of one chapter, by spreading them out in random order then trying to sequence them correctly without a reference.
I also record myself reading the passages then listen to them as I work out.
How about you?
The group Whosoever Will has a new collection called "Jump Start: John " which has short verses from the book of John. It is a great introduction to a great book of the Bible, and encouraging and faith-building for new believers, and long time Christians also.
hey @BuckeyeMike, I'm well thank God. nice to e-meet you. I don't know if this was once a big group.
How is everyone in the group doing? As you might tell from my username, I'm from Ohio. I noticed there are many users with verses current of 0. Was this a big group at one time? Does anyone know?
I recommend joining the group, Legends of God-defeat as well! bosses it is rapidly rising in verses current and it has many great people, this group has everything!, Especially active members if you say something it is almost guaranteed someone will say something within the next four hours usually less! What other group is more active then that? There is exiting challenges called bosses, you need to memorize or do some fun bible related challenge, there is always a little something to do! It is great in verse collections as well. If you lack verses, say something and one of the admins will likely put them up! It would be much appreciated if you join, chat and above all memorize! If you like the group please advertise to other groups to get more amazing people on! Just search for Legends to see all the Legends groups. Thanks!
please join the Legends-Defeat bosses. AMAZING GROUP๐๐๐
Hey Kimmy Ann! What moved you to try and memorize John?
Yes, I'm working. My goal is to memorize chapters 1-6. It's my first time working on long passages. I have done chapters 1-4 and am working on keeping them current. Pretty soon I expect to get started on chapter 5.
I've finished, but try my best to stay current. I know that wasn't your question, but I'm excited to see some activity on here and want to encourage it haha.
anybody still working on the gospel of John?
could you join โmemorize the Bible!!!โ I have only added the four Gospels in verses right now, but I intend to add the whole Bible! in fact, I added the four gospels today. it took like an hour.๐ฅต

Hello ๐Like s_christi8855 I am excited to hide Godโs Word in my heart. May God be with us !
Hi everyone!! Please join the "Prayer Requests" group where we will be displaying prayer requests on the Message Wall. Please join, add your prayer requests, and pray for others(!!) ...see you in the group ๐
Iโm so glad that there is a group for John. we need to have these words in our heart so the Holy Ghost can help us to remember what he has told us. in these perilous days when so much of our Bibles are changing before our eyes, it so important to memorize His precious Word.
Wow Crickets I am in bible quizzing too, for this years memory verses join John Memory Verses and they are there.
could you guys join group JesuSaves and dogs for Jesus? Group JesuSaves is known for Bible trivias. So if you like those you should join! And both groups are clean of bad words. Group Dogs for Jesus is known for bravery and kindness. The group has been deleted, but it just made another one. If you say "Hi, I joined." then I will almost guarantee you will be welcomed. So If you are looking for a kind, welcoming, active group please join either one. PWEEZE๐
maybe I donโt know my Bible well enough. this just seems strange to me. I need to do further research before I wrote.
simi I looked it up and even in my printed word of the Bible, lion is changed to wolf in Isaiah 11:6! I thought it would just be online Bibles! thank God for John 1! the very chapter Iโve been memorizing: โIn the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.โ John 1:1 and also psalm 119:89 โFor ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.โ
simi I see what youโre talking about! I will look into this further and pass it on!
Please join Chatting with brothers and sisters in Christ!

URGENT!! I seriously have to WARN YOU!! The KJV BIBLE has been CHANGED! (Look up the #MandelaEffect) The Lords Prayer in the KJV is not correct anymore in the KJV (how we remember "tresspasses" changed to "debts" and "those who tresspass against us" changed to "our debtors" and "ON earth" in Mt6,10 changed to "IN earth" - look it up!!!) and John8:32 has changed, as well as Isaiah11,6 changed from "Lion and Lamb will live together" to "Wolve(s) and lamb will live together"

now that I have selected a group and selected the passages to cancel him one tell me where to go from there? Help!
please join my group called screaming potatoes! invite others please
No at least i don't know maybe some one else knows
Does anyone here know of a group in Wyoming or somewhere close to Wyoming memorizing the book of Proverbs?
@Sean: That's an interesting point about reciting along with an audiobible. I'll try that...
Thanks all of you! Your tips were VERY helpful. I really feel like I can tackle my memorizing effectively now. I can memorize verses pretty quickly, but it was the routine for reviewing the verses that I was stuck on. All of your advice really helped. Thanks!!
I agree with Seรกn and gutenburg as to technique: listen firs (your voice or some elses), say out loud to learn, then ST it, and do daily reviews or more for a week minimum,...
As to timing I do it early straight after MTD's or if my brain is foggy, I review first to get my brain in gear (a tip from Rebekah). I spend 30-45 mins most days on reviewing and memorising, but those who pick it up faster and type more quickly, can do much more than me in that time. :) I find once my day starts with other things it is difficult to find the time.
Setting a pace helps, not that I have been good at that lately! I try to memorise a chapter in a week (several verses a day) and then review it every day the next week as well as other review. You will find what works for you. And memoring does become easier over time.
Brenna, From my experience the way Sean does it is one of the best ways. The only thing that I would add is that if you can read the chapter/section/verse aloud for several days before trying to memorize it helps alot. I read that if you read a passage aloud fifty times over a period of time you will almost have it memorized without memorizing it. That was a tip from a man who memorized almost the whole Bible. So I tried it and it works great. I never got up to 50 times but I read the chapters about 15 times over a week or so before memorizing and it was very easy to memorize after that. I try to read the chapters/passages aloud for a week or so before memorizing on ST. After that I try to do what Sean does. I also generally read the passage before I review it. The big problem I have is that sometimes I will skip days and get behind!
Hi Brenna!
Here's two cents. :) I usually try to memorize a verse (saying it out loud) before I ever try to ST it. Thereafter, I master it every day for ten days. (even though it doesn't come up for review) I find I do better with the more concentrated time spent on a passage, and after 10 days I can afford to take ten days off without forgetting it. I usually do a chapter at a time that way. That's in addition to reviewing 4 chapters a day in my review stream (the average I have to do to stay up to date. I usually do a number of chapters instead of just what's due on a particular day because my review stream is otherwise a bit lopsided. (two to three chapters a day in a given week, 7 chapters a day two weeks later.) I find that if I keep up with review, and listen to (and or recite along with) already memorized chapters via audio bible in my leisure time, I don't have to spend much time reciting out loud...
I'm having trouble finding a good daily routine for memorizing. Do any of you have some good "routines?" Like whats the balance between typing on Scripture Typer, and just reviewing out loud? And do you first memorize a verse repeating it out loud, or typing it out? I'd love to hear from some of you on some ideas. Thanks!
I have added the last four chapters. May God's blessings be upon you all as you continue memorising the precious Word of God. :)
What a great story! The conflict between this Jesus and the Pharisees seems to be coming to a head. I just can't see this ending well, but I'm dying to find out!! Do you think you could post the last four chapters? Thank you so much. I really appreciate all the work you put into setting up this group/book.
Chapters 11 and 12 are up... four chapters to go.
Chapter 9 is up. That's all I have time to do at the moment... will do more later.
Sure Liesl we will get to that right away. Should be done by tomorrow evening (Australian Time).
Good morning Scripture-typer friends! Would it be possible to please have the rest of John put up?
Thanks everyone, that was very helpful! I settled on memorizing the verses by the chunks. I found that when I did it verse by verse, it ended up chopping up the chapter in my head. I think this new way will be better.
@Brenna, ditto what Kerrilyn said. I've done both too, but have finally settled for just memorizing the references to chapters/chunks. That makes any given verse easy to find, without chopping things up too much. I like to think in paragraphs anyway...
@Brenna, I do it the same way Kerrilyn does. But if you know it well enough you will remember what chapter it is and probably where in the chapter a particular verse is (but maybe not the exact verse number). When memorizing chapters and books this is how I do it but if it is individual verses or several verses I do try to memorize the reference. I figure if I can at least get it memorized then I can work the exact references later.
Brenna, i have debated that too. For now I just learn them by the groupings within the chapters here but my focus is on the chapter. Not that I have done much in this group. :) Rebekah has done both, but she focuses on the chapters these days. You are correct that when it comes to recall of a particular verse learning verse by verse is more useful. But for me having it in my head so that it can change my life has been my focus. In that respect verses don't matter. So whatever suits you/meets your needs.
I was wondering, are any of you memorizing the reference for every single verse? Or do you memorize by the chapter? It takes much longer to memorize the reference for every single verse, and I'm trying to decide if it's worth it. It would be nice, because then you would be able to say any verse out of John right off the bat. How are the rest of you doing it?
I am so happy to find this group. I memorized John as part of my homeschooling in 7th through 10th grades. Most of it is very fuzzy and I am eager to get it back. ScriptureTyper is amazingly helpful for this!
Morning fellow memorisers. Like you all I want to memorise this book and retain it. In my hunt for the best way to approach this I came across this book written nearly 100 years ago by a man who actually memorised the whole Bible...it is very comprehensive, though not long, and I am sure you will all gain someting from it. You can view it free here http://memorizethebible.com/ Press onward toward the goal. :)
Happy New Year to you, too! To change the name of a collection, go to the "enter or import verses" page. On that page, just under the verse box, you have a list of your collections. Click on the name of the collection that you want to change, and you will be able to edit the name. To change it on the app, choose the collection that you want to change. On the collection page there is an "edit" button in the top right hand corner, click on that and you can change the name.
Happy New Year Group! Does anyone know how to change the name of a collection from John 1 to John 01? I tried adding the collection, but the name stayed the same (John 1). Thank you!
I will work on chapters 13-17 as soon as possible. :) Oh, and by the way, if you were interested, you could edit the passages for the first four chapters to align with how they are divided up on the group, and you will still have the same amount of reviews.
Can't wait to start. :) I can't bring myself to start over on the first four chapters (too many reviews already on my own collections) but I'll pick up here from 5. One thing: Could we get the rest of chapters 13-17 next? Those are my favorites. :)
Blessings to you through Jesus Christ our Lord. I thank God for this group. Let us encourage each other as we meditate and memorize this powerful Book!
