I’m a visual person who learns well by shadowing someone. I felt like you were a trainer at a work place. That was incredibly helpful, thank you.

[@vickylin5126]

Wow! Amazing! Finally a video that actually shows us how to do the color coding. It was so abstract to me when I was, watching the other videos when they were just talking about it. But to actually watch you do this is really helpful. Thank you so much.

[@MyAbidingJournal]

I'm so glad you found it helpful! :)

[@kathya8421]

This was SO HELPFUL! Thank you for the free color chart - I printed it out and laminated it. I used it this morning while studying a chapter in Colossians. This is great!

[@dee4174]

Great idea!

[@stacisjournaljourney7]

Thank you so much for this...real time studies are my favorite 💙

[@user-lv1uh8kl8z]

ive seen so many vidoes but FINALLY someone who explains a routine where your BIble still makes sense but still helps!! God bless you!

[@mryhatesithere5356]

I have this exact bible!! Love it sm.

[@paigecaddy6920]

I would love for you to do this again! It was so much fun! I am definitely looking forward to any upcoming videos! :-)

[@lindamastrantonio5854]

This was a great study. I would love a daily study with you like this. Please do more videos like this.

[@mercymahisa3965]

Wooooow 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

[@Curegirl80rs]

This is exactly what I needed. I was so confused and hesitant when it came to following a color coding system for my Bible. Thank you for walking us through how to use it and showing us that it’s perfectly fine to have a variety of color in a small section of scripture. I am now super excited and confident to start studying! Thank you!

[@marissab672]

I have watched several videos on Bible Study and color coding & dissecting a passage and have found yours to be the most helpful. I really appreciate how you went through your whole system and way of thinking. You have really helped me so much and I enjoyed this way of studying. I hope to be able to incorporate this in my study. I would love to see more videos!

[@MyAbidingJournal]

Marissa Banda awe your comment made my day!!! Thank you so much. I’m so happy it helped you 🙂

[@partialartsblackbelt8384]

So helpful. Thank you for going into such a detailed example!

[@MyAbidingJournal]

Thanks so much for watching and commenting. I'm so glad you found it helpful!

[@user-mq3vy6ov8e]

Love your voice when reading

[@riverbeee9643]

I just wanted to pop by and say that I've been using your method so far this year. It's been working out fantastically! I didn't think I needed a new way to read/study the Good Book, but lo & behold! God bless you & your channel. Thank you so much💗

[@tamiewilson5629]

Thank you sooooo very much!!! Please do more 🥰

[@cherylgleason8876]

I love your color coding method and it's so easy to follow. Thank you so much. Do you have any videos that so how to use this in the Old Testament? If find it harder there to place the markings. Thank you.

[@loicekudzi4846]

I can’t thank you enough for such clear instructions on Bible colour coding. I have not been consistent in my Bible reading/devotion but l believe this will be very helpful. Please continue demonstrating with more text. May God bless you and continue to increase you 🙏🙏🙏

[@ThisWomansBrain]

Great, in depth, easy to understand. Thanks.

[@littlebirdie]

This is INCREDIBLY helpful! I watched your color coding video and really appreciate how you keep the colors to simple categories. For this video I printed out the scripture and followed along. Thank you so much for doing these videos and offering the free color code printable.

[@MyAbidingJournal]

You’re so welcome! I’m so glad you found it helpful!

[@ellyag9338]

Wow Just what I needed to help me on my new journey in Bible studying. More like this would be great for those of us just starting out would be a blessing. Thank you so much for your time and sacrifice in creating these videos. Blessings ~E~

[@lindagardellini6321]

This was so helpful! I've never color-coded in my Bible before and have seen so many others talking about it or doing it, but not actually showing you how to! You're a great teacher! :) Love from Australia!

[@evamariereads99]

I'm new to faith and new to studying the bible. I've been looking for a simple, but still effective and deep way to study the bible, and I really love this method! 😍 Thank you so much for charing this! 😍 I would also loved it if you hade made more videos like this one 🥰 and to you, and everyone else reading this commentary; God bless you! ❤️🙏

[@sydninorris4115]

I have been struggling with how/where to get started and how to color code my bible and this was extremely helpful!! Thank you for sharing!!

[@MyAbidingJournal]

I'm so glad to hear that Sydni! Getting started is definitely hard, but showing up to spend time with God however, wherever, and whenever you can is completely worth it :)

[@TheHBMINISTRIES]

Love

[@scmarih]

This was so helpful to me! I have gone back to watch this again to go through Ephesians and do it with you so I can grasp how to do it on my own. I would love to see how you take annotate and further study, that would also be helpful. Thanks again.

[@MyAbidingJournal]

I'm so glad you found it helpful Maricela! I hope to do an annotation video in the future :)

[@graceeckstrom4039]

I love this!! I hope you do more!!

[@MyAbidingJournal]

Ellie Ocho thank you!!!

[@lonelywolf1961]

This was truly the best color code system I have seen here on youtube. Studying this passage was so... I don't know how to say how I feel. I got so much out of it. Thank you so much. I am going to sign up on your patreon within the next few days. God Bless You.

[@MyAbidingJournal]

Wow! Thank you so very much Dyanna! I’m so glad you found it helpful and greatly appreciate your kind words and support ☺️

[@sandywilkie1671]

I got so much out of this video I can't thank you enough. You asked if we would like to see a video on your note taking I for one would. Take care, stay safe and God Bless you and your family

I love this. I've been using your system for some time. I have hard time distinguishing context in passages.

[@patleonard2884]

God led me to your channel this morning. Your highlighting method (colors, topics) make so much sense to me! Thank you for sharing. Do you have more printables for other studies/Books of the Bible?

[@vanessalacerte686]

Great video, would you share how you choose what to write in your Bible? I would love more detail about that and how you study the words that you square in your bible. Thank you so much and God bless you :)

[@RaquelNavas]

I use the colors of the 🌈 for my color code.

[@bujeebible]

I just started using your code and I love it but I do key first then color :)

[@gloriag1381]

I just watched your video. It was very helpful as I am new to bible studying 📚. I thank you for taking your time to explaining and also the step by step in how to use your system. Amazing!!! Do have a video on note 📝 taking? I have a difficult time taking notes when reading and when I’m in church during sermon. Please let me know. Thank you again and God Bless you 🙏🏽 ❤️

[@MyAbidingJournal]

I have one video in this series on note taking. It was one of my more recent videos or you can find it on the Bible study for beginners playlist. But i plan to make more note taking videos in the new year!

[@lorettahollenbeck4794]

Enjoyed the study. Yes, I would like to see how you put notes in your margins. Do you have such a video now?

[@MyAbidingJournal]

Yes I do ☺️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWS0ZXWjobRmkLc

[@ManonVelasco]

Thank you for sharing this, it's really helpfull and I get excited to study my Bible this way! 😊🙌

[@larrygaleon36]

Thanks for sharing this , its really help us

[@pennilane6019]

This is awesome. I want to let ppl know though that if this seems a little intimidating u can buy Bibles that r already color coded. I have the NIV rainbow study Bible. Every single verse in this Bible is color coded. There r 12 different colors and there's a guide at the front of the Bible to let u know what each color represents. 12 colors seems like a lot but after u read a book or two u will have the colors meanings memorized. Usually its like a paragraph that is one color but there r times when one verse will b one color and the rest of the paragraph another. The colors r muted and it's not like there r so many colors on one page that u get a headache or get confused. Example: in the book of John, 1:1-1:5 is light purple for God, 1:6-1:8 is light pink for witnessing, 1:9 light purple, 1:10, 11 is dark gray for sin...and so on.

[@purple_leaf5770]

Very insightful. Is there a way to study the verses with less highlighting? I use color coding but differently and not so much. Your way seems to be more studying than I tend to do. God bless

[@tanyachapin5069]

Will you be sharing how you Annotate in the Bible??

I'm so Glad you did this video too! its being helpful; Hey I was wondering what kind of bible are you using like NIV Or King james? which bible is that?

I use ESV. I have the exact Bible linked in my video on my favorite Bible study supplies

Cool can u do a video with the NIV bible? Like same thing u did here?

I've been going through Galatians and I was reading about faith, what color code would you use?

I use this color code for every book of the bible :)

[@katiedemers9911]

The first commandment with a promise is bringing us back to the 10 commandments... commandment 5 is the first one with a promise - that things will go well with you... Exo 20:12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

[@MyAbidingJournal]

Yes I misspoke and corrected myself in the caption :) Thanks!!

[@spiritedartwork]

I have a question. I'm using the system you use and wondering what to highlight Genesis... mainly chapters 1 and 2... is it pink for truth (like when God is creating the earth because it's fact) or is it blue for history/context (because it's giving background about the creation of the world in historical terms)- what would you do? Thanks again :)

[@MyAbidingJournal]

It’s totally up to you! That’s the beauty of the system. It’s about what God is revealing to you. For me I’d probably use yellow to represent what that is telling me about the character of God or blue for history like you said ☺️

[@spiritedartwork]

@@MyAbidingJournal thanks! That makes sense! It's all so new to me, now that I am unpacking each part in depth... so I just want to be as accurate as possible that when I look back, all the historical parts make sense and link up more I guess. 😊

[@stephaniecrissup9112]

Since this is not a red letter Bible. How do you highlight/mark the words of Jesus?

[@MyAbidingJournal]

I underline them with a red pen ☺️

[@richardgirard2852]

where did you buy bible highlighters

[@JesusLightsYourPath]

It's too much highlighting for me, I wouldn't be able to absorb that much important information. I would need to just know the basic important parts.
