How Many Promises in the Bible?


Some people say there are 1,260 promises in the Bible
Some people have tried and come up with about 3,000.
Others have counted 7,000.
Herbert Lockyer wrote All the promises of the Bible and lists 8,000.
There are 31,102 VERSES. (This could total 31,102 PROMISES)

The difficulty of numbering the promises is due to questions like: 

“Is a promise with several parts counted as one or is each part counted as a promise?”
“What is considered a promise?” If every verse of God’s Word is considered a ‘promise’, that would be 31,102 promises! Or, if each verse portion was considered a ‘promise’ that total 31,102-PLUS promises!
