Memorize the Bible - review

It's been a  while now since I thought of the verses which I was memorizing. I don't know what that bodes for this project. Let me test myself again and see what I remember.

The first verse that are put into memory was Philippians ridem. write him stands for chapter 4 and verse 3. And I envisioned a filly was a piano on its back. And I went to lift the filly but couldn't until Christ came and touched me.

So the entire verse is Philippians 4:3 I can do all things in Christ who strengthens me.

So let's see I did.

Philippians 4:3
King James Version (KJV)
3 And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life.

 That's  embarrassing! The correct chapter and verse follows.

Philippians 4:13
King James Version (KJV)
13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

 Okay so I wasn't perfect but I see my mistake.

  Okay, another one.

He brews battle. "Battle" status for the numbers 9:15. And "he brews" stands for the book of Hebrews. And for this one I picture Jesus Christ holding a cross in one hand and a Bible in the other while battling Death.

And so the text is, "for this reason he became the mediator of a New Testament, the by means of death for the redemption of the transgressions in the first testament, those called should receive the promise of  an eternal inheritance."

Hebrews 9:15
King James Version (KJV)
15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

I like it!

2 Corinthians 5:15

And the text by memory is, "he died for all that those who live might no longer live unto themselves but live   unto him who died for them and rose again."

2 Corinthians 5:15
King James Version (KJV)
15 And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.

 For some reason, on that one the reference came to me immediately without need for a word picture.

1 cor ram, which stands for 1 Corinthians 4:3

 On this one, I see Jesus Christ wearing a ram headdress and sitting on the judgment seat. The text from memory is, "I care nothing of being judged by you or human court. I won't even judge myself. For although my conscience is clean, I have one judge, Christ."

1 Corinthians 4:3-4
King James Version (KJV)
3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.  4 For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

 In this case I think I used the NIV instead of the KJV.

1 Corinthians 4:3-4
New International Version (NIV)
3 I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, I do not even judge myself. 4 My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me.

 And those are the only ones that come to mind right now. I'll have to review my posts to see if there are any other memory verses that are started.

Sincerely,

De Maria
