A brain teaser from The Christian Voice, Derry NH Feb/March ‘96 issue. Can you find 20 books of the Bible in this paragraph?
Someone showed this story and remarked that there are twenty books of the bible hidden here. He challenged me to find them. Sure enough they're all here. Still, this thing's a lulu, kept me looking so hard for the longest time. Some of you will get bogged down with facts. Others are hit by them like they were some kind of revelation or something. You may get in a jam, especially since the words are all capitalized and the names often leap the spaces between the words. This makes it a real job to find them but it'll provide a most fascinating few minutes for you. Yes, there are some really easy ones to spot, but don't get the big head cause truthfully you'll soon figure that it would take most federal judges and preachers numbers of hours to find them all. I will admit that it usually takes a minister to find one of them and that is not uncommon for there are to be loud lamentations when it is pointed out. one lady says that when she is confronted with puzzles like this she brews a cup of herbal tea to help her concentrate better. But then this gal's a real pro. Verbs, nouns and all that stuff are her thing. See how well you can compete. Relax, there really are twenty names of Bible books in this story, if you fail to find them there's a penalty. You'll have to go fly a kite, sit on a banana, hum the Battle Hymn of the Republic, or hose a dog (a mean one). Get to it!

I have a video game called the bible game. It is tough. But a lot of fun when you know your scriptures and the answers to the questions
