Bible Mnemonics (Aids to Memorization)

Aids to the memorization of Bible facts, the location of selected verses, chapters, teachings, etc.

It is well known that the best method of fixing any fact in the mind is by continued repetition and associating like things together.

In attempting to fix in the memory the location of important verses it is worth while to be constantly on the lookout for any coincidences that occur.


For Example

"the 3:16's" 

John 3:16 is considered the greatest promise in the Bible. The memory may be aided by associating this great promise with other important "3:16's" which occur in the Scriptures.

 Proverbs  The Preciousness of Wisdom
 Malachi  The Lord's Jewels
 Luke  The Two Baptisms
 Acts  The Mighty Name
 I Corinthians  The Temple of Holy Spirit
 Colossians  The Indwelling of the Word of God
 I Timothy  The Mystery of Godliness
 II Timothy  The Value of the Scriptures

"the 2:10's of Jesus" 

 Luke  The Joy Bringer
 Ephesians  The Character Builder
 Philippians  The Adorable Name
 Colossians  The Fulfiller of Life
 Hebrews  The Captain of Our Salvation
 Revelation  The Crown Giver

"the 4:13's - Gifts of Jesus"

 John  Satisfaction
 Acts  Transformation
 Ephesians  Inspiration
 Philippians  Power
 I Thessalonians  Consolation

 


The use of a few such series of texts would greatly aid the memory; too many would be confusing.

Other Coincidences

The seventh chapter of Genesis contains references to the waters of death, while in the seventh chapter of John, Jesus speaks of the waters of life (v. 37).

Three great warning chapters are easily associated together because they all contain the figure three: Jeremiah 23, Ezekiel 33, and Matthew 23. All contain solemn warnings to religious leaders.  

 


Last Words Recorded

 Of Jesus  On Power  Acts 1:8
 Of James  On Soul Winning  James 5:10
 Of Peter  On Growth  II Peter 3:18
 Of Jude  On Divine Support  Jude 24,25
 Of John  On Divine Grace  Revelation 22:21

 Table  I Corinthians 10:31
