Title: 16 more books
Post by: Taffy on February 11, 2011, 06:33:43 PM
Kudos to WW for finding Mathew being the LAST book - 16 more , One being an abbreviation :icon_flower:

Can you find the names of 16 books from the Bible in the paragraph below without the aid of your bible? (One minister found 15 of the books in 20 minutes, but it took him weeks to find the last one.)

I once made the remark about the hidden books of the Bible. It was a lulu; kept people looking so hard for facts... and for others it was a revelation. Some were in a jam, especially since the names of the books were not capitalized. But the truth finally struck home to numbers of our readers. To others it was a real job. We want it to be a most fascinating few moments for you. Yes, there will be some really easy ones to spot. Others may require judges to help them. I will quickly admit it usually takes a minister to find one of them, and there will be loud lamentations when it is found. A little lady says she brews a cup of tea so she can concentrate better. See how well you can compete. Relax now, for there really are sixteen names of books of the Bible in this paragraph.

Adam had his wife running around naked. I think that was pretty smart. But he didn't write many books  :winkgrin:

Then my next guess is good ol' Sammy  :icon_jokercolor:

Pesky whitewings, stole my glory. Although in earnest I should be saying that to urpilgrim, but whitewings "dived" in and showcased, pilgrims long, raiders of the lost bible adventure of finding 29 lost books of the bible.

But here is the people's cup  :first:  to the true winner aka urpilgrim, after the "powers that be" rewarded kudos  :icon_flower: to whitewings (boo)
