A little brain teaser
Can you find sixteen (16) books of the Bible in this paragraph?
I once made a remark about the hidden books of the Bible (merely by a fluke). It kept people looking so hard for the facts and for others it was a revelation. Some were in a jam, especially since the name of the books were not capitalized, but the truth finally struck home to numbers of 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. There really are sixteen names of books in this story.

To Bishop Clark, From His Humble Servants:
"Prince of degredations, bought and sold,
These verses, written in your crumbling sty,
Proclaim the faith that I have held and hold,
And publish that in which I mean to die."

I found the 5 "easy" ones fairly quickly, and 7 more when I figured something out, so that gets me to 12. I haven't pulled my Bible out yet, but probably will at some point.
I don't want to spoil it for others, so I'll just email what I have so far to CF.
Great post!
Up to 13. Does it matter which translation you use?
I looked for a Catholic Bible version of it and couldn't find it, so I use a non-Catholic version.
I hope this helps and you are doing just fine!
I'm stopping at 15, since apparently the last one is a toughie.

Gottem! Thirty years as an evangelical paid off! I'll e-mail my answers so as not to spoil it for others. This was fun! Thanks.
Carol, congrats!
Choir Loft and/or Carol, is minister essential to one of them?
THERE ARE NOT 16!! There are only 13.
That's a funny icon Sr. Emily! Hilarious.
They answers should be up around 3 p.m.
There are indeed 16 and I just found the last one, annoyed that I didn't see it earlier.
