WELCOME

The best advice I can give is from a talk by Elder Oaks: ”Last year a church member sent me a suggestion that someone prepare a book containing all General Authority interpretations of all verses in the scriptures. I replied that I thought this was not a good idea…. What we are seeking to accomplish… is not to magnify the standing of the prophets but to elevate the spirituality of our rank and file members. Like Moses, we declare, ‘would God that all the Lord’s people were prophets, and that the Lord would put his spirit upon them!’ (Numbers 11:29). We encourage everyone to study the scriptures prayerfully and seek personal revelation to know the meaning for themselves.” (Elder Dallin H. Oaks, “Scripture Reading and Revelation”, BYU Studies Academy Meeting, January 29, 1993)

Marking Pens

This has been one of the biggest challenges I have faced in marking my scriptures.
Trying to find the right pen or marker that will not bleed through and yet will maintain it's brightness.

i first started out years ago with wax scripture markers or sometimes called Dry Highlighters.
These are basically like crayons and work well enough at the start. I have found years later that they have faded and in some spots melted to the adjoining page when I left the scriptures in my car too long in the summer.



I then tried  set recommended off the internet of Foray advanced ink Needle tip point
These worked well except they tend to bleed through to the other side.
They also seem to spread on the page





















Lately I have started to use plain fine point  Ball Point pens. These seem to work well and bleeding through is not as bad as others.  Time will tell I guess.
