I use a highlighter but have to take care not to have it bleed through the page. I find that if I use a Sharpie Neon Yellow and don't press hard, that it will not bleed through. Also, I never throw out a Bible, I merely re-purpose as a paper wight. And sometimes I like to pick it up and smell the leather binding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I don't believe any of that anymore, but I still can't bring myself to take notes IN the Bible. I take copious Bible notes during private study or church services in notebooks and have many of those notes now stored on my computer. Do any of you take notes IN your Bibles? If so, what kind of writing utensil do you use? Pen - pencil? Highlighter? Do you just underline things or do you write out notes? I get tired of carrying notebooks back and forth to church and am thinking about taking Bible notes in the Bible at church and still using my notebooks at home. I'm a conceptual thinker, once I get the concept, I can research from there. My wife takes notes, I do not. Bible comes from the word biblia, meaning books or small books. If you like you can look up the history of biblia on your own.......paganry, filled with it. It's just a book, nothing more, nothing 'holy' about the book. My phone and desktop are my bibles.........all the information I can take in at my finger tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny thing is ,after all these years,,,,I hardly remember WHY I highlighted certain passages,,,,,it's all worth highlighting ,every single verse,,,,,,notebooks are much better to look back on,at least I write down WHY the passage spoke out to me or what was going on at the time...... Oh & yes,like enoob,one Bible ,a NKJV has tiny little notes written in it,,,,,,so tiny it is hard to tell if it was printed or hand written,,,,,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually have two Bibles that I regularly use. One is for my inductive Bible study and the other is large print for reading. I use the inductive Bible studies from Precept Ministries which teach how to mark the Bible with symbols and notations. Doing this helps me to visually make connections between verses and subjects. I bought a journal Bible for my daughter who is an artist. Her Bible is filled with beautiful pictures she has drawn that represent the verses she finds meaningful.
