This is so great!!! Now I can spend more time studying rather than trying to create key word symbols.
Need help printing on one page. It is cutting off at the bottom and I can’t figure out how to do it. I did change my bottom margin. by the way these are great!!
Thank you so much for posting this. This helped me immensely!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Thank you for making this available. It was taking us too much time to come up with symbols–this is a blessing.
Hi Kari: Thank you so much for doing this it will make my life so much easier. I also need help with printing…cutting off at the top & bottom
This obviously took a lot of time and thought. Thanks for sharing!!
For those with printing challenges, the originals appear to be on legal size paper so you can try changing your print settings and use that size paper.
An option for regular 8X11 paper, go to “print preview” on the file menu. Click on “shrink to fit”. From that drop down menu, I chose “custom” which gave me another box where I could fill in a percentage. I used “47″ and “48″. Press enter. You can drag to adjust the margins from here if you wish. Click on the printer icon to print the page you see in the preview window. The font was still large enough to be easily legible. Hope this helps.
I struggle with filling in the Inductive Bible Study At a Glance Charts. Can anyone who has experience with filling in the Segment Divisions assist me. I have bought nearly all of Kay Arthur’s Inductive Study Series( only have Ezekiel and Romans still to purchase) yet cannot find any lessons in any of her books written on how to approach and complete segment divisions. How does she fill in the segment divisions on the chart? I am currently busy with the book of 1 john.

If printing is a problem, try going to print preview, changing the size from (scale to fit) to (custom) and make it either 40 or 45%. Worked for me. These look very helpful!
I do get stuck, thank you very much for the effort and blessing!
Mike, I’m sorry for not responding sooner to your question about segment divisions. For some reason, I have not been getting notice about comments to this page so I just saw all of these! Segment divisions baffle a lot of people so don’t feel like it’s just you. It took me years to really understand segment divisions. Most of my students wrestle with doing them. First, let me recommend “How to Study Your Bible” by Kay Arthur (can be found in Precept Camden’s store by clicking on PRECEPT CAMDEN STORE in the right sidebar). There should be a section on segment divisions in that book. Second, you have inspired me to write a post on this process of coming up with segment divisions – so be looking for that in the near future!
Thank you very much! I am slightly visually impaired, so in addition to a print out, I wanted to get the pages into PDF format. I used a freeware converter (BullZip) that allows me to “print” to PDF file format from my MS Word. When I’m working in Logos instead of on paper, I can open the PDF file and increase the size so they mark-ups are easier for me to see.
Your work is greatly appreciated! See you in “Behold, Jesus is Coming” in a week or so, Lord willing!
Hi, I’m still having issues with printing. When I choose ‘custom’ it defaults to 100%. I’ve changed it to 48, but of course that makes it smaller. Is it possible to get a copy of the actual document?
Thanks,
Jennifer
Jennifer, I’m not sure why you are having problems. It must be a setting on your computer or printer. Could you try asking a friend to print them out for you? If that doesn’t work, then email me at preceptcamden@gmail.com and send me your snail mail address and I will mail hard copies to you.
This is great. Thank you so much for posting this. I am just getting started with the inductive method and having the symbols makes it much easier. I appreciate you helping others in their study of God’s Word.
Wow! I am so thankful to have run across this site! I begin teaching my first inductive study tonight. I was looking for examples of symbols to give my students, and WAHLAH! Thank you so much. I will be back over & over again.
i knew there was something out there that had more keywords i can use and understand thanks again
I can’t tell you how much this means to me to have consistency with my markings. Just finished my first Precept (now starting second)…I have been overwhelmed but immensly blessed. I love having this to get me past my own limitations. Bless you for sharing!!!!
Right in the middle of my first precept, and I decided to google “precept key word symbols” because I got to “decree” – you were first on the list! These are awesome! Just wish I would’ve thought to search BEFORE I started…because now I want to go back and change some but it’s too late:( Thanks for doing this!
Does anyone have a symbol for Father, as in God the Father?
When referring to God, I mark all synonyms, including Father, the same: with a purple triangle colored in yellow.
I am fairly new to Precepts. Thank you for posting the symbols!
I had no problem printing most of the pages, but the pages for C-D, E-G, H-K came out
very blurry and totally illegible. I tried copying the images both to Publisher and to Word but neither worked. All the other pages printed out very clearly and are very helpful.
Is there anything you can suggest?
Thank you!

Hey Precept Camden – where have you been all my life? LOL! This is totally great. I even suggested to Precept that they need to do something like this!
I am doing a Bible study workshop and would like to provide my participants copies of these. Of course I will show them your website and give credit. I am not charging for this workshop.
Thanks,

Shelly, So glad you found helpful resources at preceptcamden.com! Feel free to share the Key Word Symbol pages with your class. And thank you for giving credit. That’s all I ask in return for the use of them. God bless!
A question for other posters on this site…has anyone given much thought to doing an A-Z pocket guide book on Inductive Bible Study Symbols like what is on this site( it could be like an A-Z book of Inductive Bible Study Symbols published and distributed through Precept International to students worldwide, with links to websites that provide ideas and handdrawn symbols as well as software that is provided for designing one’s own symbols…it could also include a section on interpreting difficult segment divisions with sample pages from actual classes)
Mike Dellar
No, and that is way beyond my expertise but I would applaud and USE such an animal if it existed. Thanks for the thought, I hope someone takes it and runs with it. Marie
Does anyone have anything like this for key words in the Leviticus study?
Refering to my earlier post on Segment Divisions in the Inductive Study Process….This is not a critisism, just an observation… I have Kay’s Books on How to Study the Bible as well as her workbook… Now for my questions:
1. Why is only one sample given (i.e The Book of John)?
2. Where can I find a useful on- line line link to help me with transcribing Segment Divisions to my Inductive Study Bible
3. When is Kay Arthur going to publish a workbook on Interpreting and Filling in Segment Divisions( please do not include her current The New How to Study Your Bible Workbook- I already have it and whilst it is helpful, not enough sample examples are given on Segment Division, other than the book of John if I am correct)
4.Why are there rectangular blocks next to the chapter themes( what is entered here?) and then further down longer rectangular blocks below?( what is entered here?)
Can someone who has experience or even Kay Arthur please post some filled in and fully completed AT A GLANCE Segment Division Charts to Sample here on this site… I am sure all would benefit and a follow up workbook published on this difficult to do section of The At A GLANCE Worksheet would greatly help
Mike Dellar
The answer to my prayers(read my post above):
Just found a very useful book on doing Inductive Bible Study Segment Divisions, whilst searching the web.It is entitled : Anaylitical Bible Study Charts by Jentzen L. Irving. It can be bought from Amazon.com at $34.95. I would also look out for Independant Bible Study by the same author. Both books come highly recommended.

P.S. Keep up the good work Precept Camden. You are blessing others with this site
