I figured this was a good place to start! Here is a quick walkthrough of The James Method Verse mapping journal. Journal and other study supplies available at www.thejamesmethod.com
Why aren't more men into this? I love Mind Mapping for notes etc. The journal looks solid. Quiet time and creativity are good for the soul. This forces one to really dig deep and fully understand a verse. Please make a manly version so I don't get clobbered. JK. I think I'm going to try it anyway. Found the website. Gonna get a hardback journal next week. Thx.
I think this is a good way to go deeper into scripture. I'd like to point out a couple of things. First, if you're using a modern translation, which everyone except King James users probably are, then I would recommend using a modern dictionary. The English language has changed over time, and the 1828 Webster dictionary is probably out of date on a number of words. Probably not all words, maybe not a significant amount of words, but why risk it? Secondly, having taken Hebrew and Greek, I would caution anyone unfamiliar with the tools or languages. It can be easy to assume a meaning that the context doesn't imply or even allow for. The lexicons do a good job of listing verses, but I don't think they can be exhaustive, except for words that aren't used too often. If in doubt, find a Hebrew or Greek professor and ask. Again, this does look like a great way to dive into the scriptures.
Thank you so much for explaining this. I have the digital copy and am on my second Scripture thus far. The View of GOD stumped me until I saw this video. I didn't even attempt to do it with the First Scripture. Now I can go back and take my time. I love The James Method. I am learning so much. THANK YOU.
Keep hope alive and truth told. God is here for all of us when translated text is used to a negative impact and adjusted with a highlighted message it is very offensive. But the ones that are helping us understand more please continue to be positive.🙏
If you like an explanation on why some verses were translated the way they are you should get a NET full notes Bible. On a lot of verses and words it gives you what they are in HEB/Greek and why the different translations used what words they chose.
I just bought a journal, b/c I was looking for another way to enhance my scripture study. So far I love how simple this journal is. I like having another place to jot down my thoughts and breakdown verses that jump out at me. So thank you for creating this journal.
I keep waiting for more you tube videos from you :) you mentioned sharing Bible tools as well that you use. Expanding upon them. Would love more from this channel :)
