The What Not the Why

Most of you following along at home have heard the reasons why weneed to memorize the Bible since you were old enough to read. A quick for those of you new to this thing.Read Psalm 119:11 (See References at the back of this book):Why do we memorize scripture?How many Star Trek fans out there? Do you remember the Prime Direc-tive? (Extra points if you blog on and tell me.)The Prime Directive of the Christian's life is given in Matthew 28:19-20.What does it say:

Pretty hard to disciple and teach if you don’t know what to teach.

All of us at some point in time needed to be walked through the process

of salvation. That’s why the first thing I recommend that you memorize

are the versesthat accompany the illustration on the next page.
