On the subject of catching up on reviews, I have from time to time just allocated a Lord's Day where I've spent all my spare time just reviewing. It does the soul no harm and clears the pile periodically.

It depends whether you choose to review a whole chapter, when maybe just one or two verses are due. I always like to review complete chapters, rather than just sections. That’s why I reluctantly decided to slow down my learning a few months ago, in order to give me some chance of catching up with the reviewing. (And because the stats showed that I’d somehow missed a day in August, so I wouldn’t have got to my 2-year badge anyway :-) ) Let’s see if I can keep on top of it now, adding about 3 per week, and reviewing about 40 per day....

I´ve sometimes wondered how many verses on average you have to study per day in order to clear your review list. But Peter, you have for the most part learned one verse a day and averaged about 40 in review, so that gives some indication. Either I´ll have to cut down how much I learn or increase my reviewing substantially... or I can just live happily with a long review list :-)

Wow, well done PeterP! I can´t imagine clearing my review list, although every once in a while I see signs of being able to at least reduce it slightly :-) Must be a good feeling to see "No verses due for review"!

Yay! I have cleared my review list this morning, for the first time in many months!

Hi Tracey 😊 No I haven’t done Song of Solomon. I remember you learning it some years back. It seems a tough one to me. But I’m glad it was a help to you. It’s one of Jim’s favourites.

JDJDJD have you done Song of Solomon? I can definitely recommend it :-) Saved my faith some years back. X

I also would like to echo what GSHd said about Daniel 7, 8, 10, 12. I haven't added them yet, but I've read them recently, listened to sermons about them, etc. It's a real faith-strengthener to compare the words of Daniel to those of John in Revelation. These two men who lived hundreds of years apart served the very same Almighty God.

Thanks for the suggestion. revelation sounds tempting. I’ve learnt the first 3 chapters so “only” 19 to go. I think I’ll do the next 2 for starters. 😊

I agree with GSHd regarding the entire book of Revelation; it is doable -- many of the chapters are quite short. It will speak to you of the majesty and the justice and the judgment of God -- it will inspire you to both fear and love Him who lives forever and ever.

I humbly suggest studying chapters from those prophets from OT that prophesy of Christ's Second Coming like Daniel chp. 7,8, 10, 12, Zechariah, Ezekiel, Amos, etc, and then - for those who have not done it yet - the entire book of Revelation (I challenge you! ☺!!!)

I’m looking for inspiration too. I want chapters that will give me a greater appreciation of the Lord. Suggestions very welcome.

I find Daniel 1 - 4 to be a great blessing. Eventually I hope to add more of Daniel.

So with a new year starting - what are you thinking of studying in 2018? I got halfway through Acts and then needed a break, so finishing Acts is one possibility for me (I´m also halfway through Matthew and Hebrews), but I think I would like to learn more from the OT, although I´m not sure what to pick. Suggestions from any of you? So far have done Joel 2, Gen 1, Ex 20, a few chapters from Isaiah plus various psalms.

A belated Merry Christmas to all .... and thank you for your prayer Robinshe.

Thanks Robinshe. And to you too :)

Amen. Merry Christmas to you, too, Robinshe!

Merry Christmas my friends. May the Lord bless each one of you and your families, and may you see his hand in your life in the coming year as we together continue to learn to know him and trust him.

A surprisingly Christian perspective from Canada´s National Post. http://nationalpost.com/opinion/np-view-what-jesus-descendant-of-david-promises-mankind

I too noticed those changes. As others have said, they are reasonable :)

So the moral is... make sure you don’t score less than 80% ha ha!
Actually, I just use ‘next’ even if I score very low, because I figure (or hope) that I’ll do better next time it comes round :-)

I noticed that Luke did that the other day. It's fun to follow along with what he's doing behind the scenes. Also, I thought I saw the other day that he reduced the amounts of hints you get for short verses. Again, makes sense.

LearnScripture just got harder! It used to be that if you scored under 80% on a verse and had to repeat it, you got points for your second attempt - not anymore! And repeated verses don´t count in your statistics anymore for how many verses you studied in a day. Stricter, but more logical and fair :-)

I took a look at your link. It would have been a good deal, but unfortunately the 9 point font is too small for me ...

Not trying to market anything here, but in case anyone is interested, there are some beautifully illustrated ESV Bibles at half price for Black Friday with room for taking notes: https://biblegateway.christianbook.com/esv-illuminated-journaling-edition-green-hardcover/9781433557958/pd/557958?event=CFCER1

I echo what others have just said, Luke. Having such a website by which to on a daily basis meditate on God's Word has made a huge change in my life. Please know that you are performing a service dear to God's Heart because of how you are blessing His children in this way.

Thank you Luke for your dedicated work on this site and being such a blessing for all of us. May the Lord bless you so much more!
