Memory Verse2 Tim 2:4,“No soldier in active service entangles himself in the affairs of everyday life, so that he may please the one who enlisted him as a soldier.”
1 Tim 1:5, “But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.”
The right lobe of your soul is called the heart or KARDIA, Eph 5:18-19; Rom 10:1, where you do your thinking, analyzing, applying of knowledge, and is the seat of common sense.
The heart is designed to dominate the soul. Therefore, it must be the target for doctrinal teaching, 1 Kings 3:9, 12; Psa 19:14; 119:11.
The Biblical Heart has Six CompartmentsThe Frame of Reference The Memory Center Vocabulary Storage Categorical Storage Conscience Launching Pad
The Memory Center Using the analogy of a filing cabinet for the heart, the M.C. is the actual files within the drawer(s) (i.e., Frame of Reference), of a filing cabinet. It is the actual storage of Biblical information within your soul for future recall / application.
Heb 12:3-4, “Think of Him who has endured such hostility by sinners against Himself, so that you will not grow weary in your heart and give up. 4You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding blood in your striving against sin.”
We are commanded to recall Bible Doctrine for future personal application.
If we are unable to recall, we will not have the designed power to stand firm when we face the adversities of life.
Recall is necessary for the application of the Word to experience for worship, training the Christian reflexes, the function of the Problem Solving Devices, etc.
The Memory Center circulates Bible doctrine into the various parts of the right lobe producing recall.
You associate things in your Frame of Reference and then remember them from the function of the Memory Center.
Recall is synonymous with the application of Bible doctrine and is a part of wisdom.
It may take only one verse to apply recall, but more complex recall and application occurs after we learn much Bible Doctrine.
Recall is the basis for the function of all three stages of the Faith-Rest Drill (FRD).
Faith-Rest DrillStage 1, Claim a promise(s) of God and establish a RMA.
Faith-Rest DrillStage 1, Claim a promise(s) of God and establish a RMA. Stage 2, Concentrate on pertinent doctrine in a logical order (doctrinal rationale).
Faith-Rest DrillStage 1, Claim a promise(s) of God and establish a RMA. Stage 2, Concentrate on pertinent doctrine in a logical order (doctrinal rationale). Stage 3, Reach doctrinal conclusions and apply them in faith.
You can not apply faith without information to believe in. Without information you have no basis for applying faith.
Recall is the application of doctrinal rationales in faith to the circumstances of life.
With doctrine stored in your soul, you can recall it and come to a conclusion where you apply it logically and rationally to the situations of life.
Therefore, stage three is Doctrinal Conclusion, which is the recall and application, in faith, of the Word of God to your life.
It is making application of the doctrines you have recalled and rationalized by putting them into action either mentally, verbally or overtly.
Recall is not dependent on having a good human memory. It is dependent on the consistent intake of the Word and the building up of your Spiritual I.Q. by God the Holy Spirit.
You can not look up the pertinent principles and doctrines in your notebook when you are being tested. It must already be in your Memory Center. Lam 3:20‑25
Psa 119:16,“I delight in your statutes (doctrine); I shall not forget Your word.”
Psa 119:109, “My life is continually in my hand (in constant danger), yet I do not forget Your law (doctrines).”
The Frame of Reference plus the Memory Center equals the recall of Bible doctrine.2 Cor 10:4‑6
