Interesting, I highly encourage y'all to join in on Bible Quizzing.

Actually, I heard that during a normal lifespan, humans typically use less than 2% of their brain capacity.dancer02248 wrote:that would be awesome...but i don't know if i have that much room in my head
I've tried memorizing Bible verses lots of times, but they seem to slip away after a month or two...

For memorization, repetition is the key. If you have a chunk memorized and don't want to forget it, I'd suggest saying it at least once a week.
I have on rare occasion put Bible verses to song, but it is not an easy task!...for me, at least.
As for Bible Quiz, I wish it wasn't too late to get involved!

For the past year (up until September '04), my sister was memorizing Matthew. She memorized around 800 verses, I believe. She's presently working on Romans and says it's more difficult memorizing it.Dr. Watson wrote:Once I tried memorizing the entire book of Romans, and it actually stuck for awhile. But now, it's impossible to remember it.
Only 2% I say I at least use 3!!!Dr. Watson wrote:Actually, I heard that during a normal lifespan, humans typically use less than 2% of their brain capacity.dancer02248 wrote:that would be awesome...but i don't know if i have that much room in my head

Why do you memorize Scripture? To remember it. In order to remember it you have to "exercise" it with meditation. You said it over and over when you were memorizing it, right? You need to keep saying it to yourself. As you get to know it better you might need only once a day or whatever. It's practice that's the key. It only makes sense anyway if you're memorizing the Bible. You hide God's Word in your heart so you won't sin against Him. That doesn't just mean that you hope a verse will come to mind someday if you need it. It means that you'll go over it and think over it so you'll get to know it better and hopefully live like God wants you to.SivartM wrote:That happens to me too...Dr. Watson wrote:Actually, I heard that during a normal lifespan, humans typically use less than 2% of their brain capacity.dancer02248 wrote:that would be awesome...but i don't know if i have that much room in my head

That's very true. I've memorized the Sermon on the Mount (Matt. 5-7) and Romans 6-7. The passage in Matthew was a lot easier for me to earn.Trent DeWhite wrote:For the past year (up until September '04), my sister was memorizing Matthew. She memorized around 800 verses, I believe.
