How to Memorize Scripture

by Matt Slick (http://carm.org/how-to-memorize-scripture)

Many people don't think they can memorize their way out of a new shopping mall let alone

remember a verse in the Bible. I've spoken with dozens of people about Scripture memorization

who say the same thing: "I have a terrible memory." My answer to them is,

"Nonsense!" Everyone memorizes all the time. You've learned to speak, haven't you? You've

memorized thousands of do's and don't's in life, right? You know your social security number,

your phone number, your address, how many brothers, sisters, or children you have, how to get

to work and what to do when you get there. The problem is not that people can't memorize, it's

that they won't memorize.

The Bible is the foundation for witnessing, and you must memorize verses to be able to use it--

this applies to your devotional life as well as witnessing. One serious problem I've found is that

most people have memorized fewer than seven verses. The average Jehovah's Witness has

committed many more to memory and, given the opportunity, could make the average Christian

feel about as knowledgeable as banana bread. What I would like to do is help you memorize

better.

Four easy steps to memorization

There are four easy steps to Scripture memorization. Let's use 1 Peter. 2:24 as an example: "and

He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, that we might die to sin and live to

righteousness; for by his wounds you were healed" (NASB).

Step 1: Location

The first step is to memorize the location--not the verse. The reason for this is if you forget the

verse but you've memorized the location, you can always go look it up.

First, memorize the location: "1 Peter 2:24." Say "1 Peter 2:24" over and over again. Don't

worry about what it says at first; just memorize the location. Make sure that when you say 1

Peter 2:24, it flows smoothly off your lips. Say 1 Peter 2:24 emphasizing different

syllables. Say 1 Peter 2:24 or 1 Peter 2:24 or 1 Peter 2:24 or even 1 Peter 2:24. But say 1 Peter

2:24 enough times that when you say 1 Peter 2:24, it is as natural as breathing.

Step 2: Gist

The second step is to learn the gist of what the verse is. In this case it is very simple, "Jesus bore

our sins in His body on the cross." Say, "Jesus bore our sins in His body on the cross" in

different ways. Say, "Jesus bore our sins in His body on the cross," or "Jesus bore our sins in

His body on the cross," and "Jesus bore our sins in His body on the cross," etc. But say "Jesus

bore our sins in His body on the cross" enough times that when you say, "Jesus bore our sins in

His body on the cross," it is as natural as saying 1 Peter. 2:24. (Kind of repetitive, isn't it?)

Page 2: How to Memorize Scripture - Anchored Student Ministries · 2019-11-03 · feel about as knowledgeable as banana bread. What I would like to do is help you memorize better. Four easy

Step 3: Association

The third part is more fun. This is where you associate the two together. Say, "1 Peter 2:24 is

Jesus bore our sins in His body on the cross. Jesus bore our sins in His body on the cross is 1

Peter 2:24. 1 Peter 2:24 is Jesus bore our sins in His body on the cross . . . " Say this over and

over again about ten times. In no time, if you do this, you will memorize.

This association part is important because it helps you to think of one part whenever you think of

the other. For example, if someone asked you "Where does it say that Jesus bore our sin in his

body?", you'd immediately reply with "1 Peter. 2:24." It works.

Step 4: A piece of paper

The fourth and final part is to take a piece of lined paper, 8 1/2" by 11", and draw a vertical line

about one inch from the left-hand side.

Write the verse location in the left column on your paper and on the right side simply write the

verse. Do this with each verse you want to remember. Fold it up, put it in your pocket or purse,

and carry it with you everywhere you go. When you forget a verse or its location, simply pull

out the paper and refresh your memory. In no time at all, you'll have over one hundred verses

committed to memory.

Memorization is like exercise. The more you do it, the easier it gets; the less, you do the harder

it gets. So do it. If you follow this procedure, your mind will become like a sponge; you'll end

up memorizing all sorts of stuff with the greatest of ease, like how many socks are in your

drawer, everything that is in your refrigerator, and even where your car keys are.

Verses to memorize

by Matt Slick

I suggest that you first remember the location of the verse (i.e., Gen. 1:1) then either memorize

the entire verse or what it is basically about. That way, you won't lose the verse.

1 Gen. 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

2 Gen. 1:3 Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.

3 Gen. 1:26

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our

the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping

thing that creeps on the earth.”

4 Gen. 2:4

This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created,

Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?”

29 Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has

he has sent.”

32 Jesus answered them, “I showed you many good works from the

Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?” 33 The Jews answered

Him, “For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy; and

because You, being a man, make Yourself out to be God.”

But a certain man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of

property, 2 and kept back some of the price for himself, with his wife’s

full knowledge, and bringing a portion of it, he laid it at the apostles’

feet. 3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to

the Holy Spirit, and to keep back some of the price of the land? 4 “While

it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold,

the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God; 56 and he

said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened up and the Son of Man standing

at the right hand of God.” 57 But they cried out with a loud voice, and

covered their ears, and they rushed upon him with one impulse. 58 And

when they had driven him out of the city, they began stoning him, and

the witnesses laid aside their robes at the feet of a young man named

Saul. 59 And they went on stoning Stephen as he called upon the Lord

and said, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!” 60 And falling on his knees, he

cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them!”

And having said this, he fell asleep.

187 Acts 10:43

“Of Him all the prophets bear witness that through His name everyone

who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins.”

188 Acts 10:44-47

While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all

those who were listening to the message. 45 And all the circumcised

believers who had come with Peter were amazed, because the gift of the

Holy Spirit had been poured out upon the Gentiles also. 46 For they were

hearing them speaking with tongues and exalting God. Then Peter

answered, 47 “Surely no one can refuse the water for these to be baptized

who have received the Holy Spirit just as we did, can he?”

189 Acts 13:48

And when the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the

word of the Lord; and as many as had been appointed to eternal life

195 Rom. 1:16

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for

salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

196 Rom. 1:18

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and

unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

judgment, for in that you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you

who judge practice the same things

199 Rom. 2:12-16

For all who have sinned without the Law will also perish without the

Law; and all who have sinned under the Law will be judged by the Law;

13 for not the hearers of the Law are just before God, but the doers of the

Law will be justified. 14 For when Gentiles who do not have the Law do

instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law

to themselves, 15 in that they show the work of the Law written in their

hearts, their conscience bearing witness, and their thoughts alternately

accusing or else defending them

But he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that which is of

the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter; and his praise is not from men,

but from God.

as it is written,“There is none righteous, not even one; 11 There is none

who understands, There is none who seeks for God; 12 All have turned

aside, together they have become useless; There is none who does good,

there is not even one.”

202 Rom. 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

203 Rom. 3:28

For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the

Law.

204 Rom. 4:5

But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the

ungodly, his faith is reckoned as righteousness,

205 Rom. 5:1

Therefore having been justified by faith, we have peace with God

through our Lord Jesus Christ,

206 Rom. 5:8

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet

sinners, Christ died for us.

207 Rom. 5:9

Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be

saved from the wrath of God through Him.

208 Rom. 5:18

So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all

men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification

of life to all men.

209 Rom. 6:1-2

What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace might

increase? 2 May it never be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it?

Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ

Jesus have been baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we have been

buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that as Christ was

Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with

Therefore what benefit were you then deriving from the things of which

For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in

Christ Jesus our Lord.

Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this

Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we exist through Him.

nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law

but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus,

Law; since by the works of the Law shall no flesh be justified.

I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but

Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith

Law, then Christ died needlessly.”

Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified?

faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “All the

be enslaved all over again?

very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be

grasped, 7 but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant,

being made in human likeness. 8 And being found in appearance as a

man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death — even death on

a cross!

272 Phil. 2:12

So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my

presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your

salvation with fear and trembling;

273 Phil. 2:13

for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good

pleasure.

274 Col. 1:15 And He is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of all creation.

275 Col. 1:16-17

For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth,

visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or

authorities—all things have been created by Him and for Him. 17 And

He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.

276 Col. 2:8

See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty

deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary

principles of the world, rather than according to Christ.

277 Col. 2:9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form

278 Col. 2:11-12

and in Him you were also circumcised with a circumcision made without

hands, in the removal of the body of the flesh by the circumcision of

Christ; 12 having been buried with Him in baptism, in which you were

also raised up with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised

Him from the dead.

279 Col. 2:16

Therefore let no one act as your judge in regard to food or drink or in

respect to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day—

280 Col. 3:1-5

If then you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things

above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind

on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. 3 For you have

died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is

our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.

281 Col. 3:8

But now you also, put them all aside: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and

abusive speech from your mouth.

282 Col. 3:12-13

And so, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on

a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; 13

bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a

complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should

you.

283 Col. 3:14

And beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of

unity.

284 Col. 4:5-6

Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of

the opportunity. 6 Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned, as it

were, with salt, so that you may know how you should respond to each

person.

285 1 Thess. 4:7

For God has not called us for the purpose of impurity, but in

sanctification.

286 1 Thess. 4:16

For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the

voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God; and the dead in

Christ shall rise first.

287 1 Thess. 5:9

For God has not destined us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation

through our Lord Jesus Christ,

288 1 Thess. 5:21 But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good;

289 2 Thess. 2:3

Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the

apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of

destruction,

290 1 Tim. 1:5

But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good

conscience and a sincere faith.

291 1 Tim. 1:16

Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and

glory forever and ever. Amen.

292 1 Tim. 2:4

who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the

truth.

293 1 Tim. 2:5

For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the

man Christ Jesus,

294 1 Cor. 2:15

But he who is spiritual appraises all things, yet he himself is appraised by

no man.

295 1 Tim. 3:15

but in case I am delayed, I write so that you may know how one ought to

conduct himself in the household of God, which is the church of the

living God, the pillar and support of the truth.

296 1 Cor. 5

Deliver the man to satan for the destruction of his flesh so his soul would

be saved

297 1 Tim. 6:15-16

which He will bring about at the proper time—He who is the blessed and

only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords; 16 who alone

possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light; whom no man

has seen or can see. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.

298 2 Tim. 2:15

Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does

not need to be ashamed, handling accurately the word of truth.

299 2 Tim. 2:24

And the Lord’s bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all,

able to teach, patient when wronged,

300 2 Tim. 2:25

with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God

may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth,

301 2 Tim. 3:16

All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof,

for correction, for training in righteousness; 17 that the man of God may

be adequate, equipped for every good work.

302 Tit. 2:13

looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great

God and Savior, Christ Jesus;

303 Heb. 1:1-3

God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many

portions and in many ways, 2 in these last days has spoken to us in His

Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made

the world. 3 And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact

representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His

power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right

hand of the Majesty on high;

304 Heb. 1:6

And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all

God’s angels worship him.”

305 Heb. 1:8

But about the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, will last for ever and

ever, and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom.

306 Heb. 2:7

“Thou hast made him for a little while lower than the angels; thou hast

crowned him with glory and honor, and hast appointed him over the

works of Thy hands;

307 Heb. 6:1-2

Therefore leaving the elementary teaching about the Christ, let us press

on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead

works and of faith toward God, 2 of instruction about washings, and

laying on of hands, and the resurrection of the dead, and eternal

judgment.

308 Heb. 6:4-6

For in the case of those who have once been enlightened and have tasted

of the heavenly gift and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5

and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come,

6 and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to

repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God, and

put Him to open shame.

309 Heb. 6:20

where Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us, having become a high

priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.

310 Heb. 7:7-10

But without any dispute the lesser is blessed by the greater. 8 And in this

case mortal men receive tithes, but in that case one receives them, of

whom it is witnessed that he lives on. 9 And, so to speak, through

Abraham even Levi, who received tithes, paid tithes, 10 for he was still

in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him.

311 Heb. 7:25

Hence, also, He is able to save forever those who draw near to God

through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.

312 Heb. 7:27

who does not need daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices,

first for His own sins, and then for the sins of the people, because this He

did once for all when He offered up Himself.

313 Heb. 8:13

When He said, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. But

whatever is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to disappear.

314 Heb. 9:22

And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed

with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.

315 Heb. 9:27

And inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes

judgment,

316 Heb. 9:28

so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, shall

appear a second time for salvation without reference to sin, to those who

eagerly await Him.

317 Heb. 10:10-11

By this will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of

Jesus Christ once for all. 11 And every priest stands daily ministering

and offering time after time the same sacrifices, which can never take

away sins;

318 Heb. 10:10

By this will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of

Jesus Christ once for all.

319 Heb. 10:26

For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the

truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,

320 Heb. 11 Hall of faith

321 Heb. 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, yes and forever.

322 Heb. 13:20

Now the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the great Shepherd

of the sheep through the blood of the eternal covenant, even Jesus our

Lord,

323 James 1:2-4

Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, 3

knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. 4 And let

endurance have its perfect result, that you may be perfect and complete,

lacking in nothing.

324 James 1:5

But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all men

generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

325 James 2:10

For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles in one point, he has

become guilty of all.

326 James 2:14

What use is it, my brethren, if a man says he has faith, but he has no

works? Can that faith save him?

327 James 2:19

You believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and

shudder.

328 James 2:24 You see that a man is justified by works, and not by faith alone.

329 James 5:16

Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, so

that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can

accomplish much.

330 1 Pet. 1:3

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according

to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope

through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

331 1 Pet. 2:8

“A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense”; for they stumble because

they are disobedient to the word, and to this doom they were also

appointed.

332 1 Pet. 2:22 who committed no sin, nor was any deceit found in His mouth;

333 1 Pet. 2:24

and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, that we might die

to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed.

334 1 Pet. 3:15

but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a

defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is

in you, yet with gentleness and reverence;

335 1 Pet. 3:21

And corresponding to that, baptism now saves you—not the removal of

dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience—through

the resurrection of Jesus Christ

336 2 Pet. 3:9

The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is

patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to

repentance.

as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things, in which are

some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort,

as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction.

338 1 John 1:7

but if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have

fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us

from all sin.

339 1 John 1:8

If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is

not in us.

340 1 John 1:9

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins

and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

341 1 John 2:2

and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but

also for those of the whole world.

342 1 John 2:4

The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and does not keep His

commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;

343 1 John 2:19

They went out from us, but they were not really of us; for if they had

been of us, they would have remained with us; but they went out, in order

that it might be shown that they all are not of us.

344 1 John 2:22

Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the

antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.

345 1 John 2:27

And as for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in

you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing

teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has

taught you, you abide in Him.

346 1 John 3:20

in whatever our heart condemns us; for God is greater than our heart, and

knows all things.

347 1 John 4:1-3

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether

they are from God; because many false prophets have gone out into the

world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses

that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God

348 1 John 4:8 The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love.

349 1 John 4:10

In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His

Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

350 1 John 5:13

These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of

God, in order that you may know that you have eternal life.

351 Jude 3

Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our

common salvation, I felt the necessity to write to you appealing that you

contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the

saints.

352 Jude 4

For certain persons have crept in unnoticed, those who were long

beforehand marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn

the grace of our God into licentiousness and deny our only Master and

Lord, Jesus Christ.

And they *sang a new song before the throne and before the four living

creatures and the elders; and no one could learn the song except the one

hundred and forty-four thousand who had been purchased from the earth.

4 These are the ones who have not been defiled with women, for they

have kept themselves chaste. These are the ones who follow the Lamb

wherever He goes. These have been purchased from among men as first

fruits to God and to the Lamb. 5 And no lie was found in their mouth;

they are blameless.
