The Bible and the Brethren

Recently, a group of brothers and I have committed to memorizing Scripture together. This is exciting for me, here are some reasons why:

1. It prompts the fulfillments God's commandment (through the Apostle  Paul) to collectively think about "good" things (Phil 4:8-9)

2. It will help us, collectively fight the good fight of faith (1 Tim 6:12; 2 Tim 4:7)

3. It will help us to see, together, the weighty reality and truth of God's Word being the most precious thing we could fill our minds with (Ps 19:7-11)

4. The Word enables us to kill sin (Rom 8:13)

5. By memorizing Scripture we can meditate on God's Word even when it's not in front of us (Ps 1:2)
