Tips: Online Scriptures
Often we are asked if Scriptorian, since it includes the entire LDS
scripture library, has a feature to search for scriptures based on
keywords. Although, you can easily retrieve any verse of scripture
you want from Scriptorian's scripture library, it doesn't include the
ability to search for a verse based on the words it contains- you need
to know the reference of the verse you are looking for. Because other
software products and resources exist that allow you to do this, we
have intentionally not included such a feature.
However, if you are looking for a good way to look up scriptures by
keyword, or even topic, you should check out The Official Scriptures
of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on-line. From this web site you can quickly
search the scriptures based on a word or phrase. You can also access
the Topical Guide to easily peruse scriptures by topic. These on-line
scriptures are fully cross indexed with hyper links so you can easily
follow a chain of related scriptures to find what you may be looking
for. And best of all since this is a free resource, as long as you
have Internet access, you don't need to purchase another software
program to be able to search for scripture verses. (And after you
find that special verse you were looking for, don't forget to add it
to your Scriptorian study list so you won't need to go looking for it
again!)
How do you use Scriptorian? Have you come up with some ideas that may
be useful for others? Please feel free to share them with us.
