Why Scripture memorization is so essential to the Christian life: 1. Conformity to Christ (1 Sam. 3:2). 2. Daily triumph over sin (Psm. 119:9,11). 3. Daily triumph over Satan (Mt. 4:1-11). 4. Comfort and counsel for people you love (Pr. 25:11). 5. Communicating the Gospel to unbelievers. 6. Communion with God in the enjoyment of His person and ways.
