The following was sent to me by my mom. Dear Mods if there is a copyright here?... I don't know? Feel free to remove if you even think there is.
That aside this has been a fun and frustrating excercise. Tip: I made one copy and saved it in my Bible Study Documents. Then I made another and used that one to find the books of the Bible. When I found a book I would go back and bold the letters of that book making it stand out from the rest of the text. Then if you care to share your discovery you can copy and paste ONLY THAT PART OF THE HIGHLIGHTED TEXT NAMING THAT BOOK. Good luck if you decide to play and I hope this blesses you as it did me. Have fun . ![]() PS - Lets not give up on this utill we reveal all thirty books! There isn't a time limit. I've only found nineteen! ![]() _______________________________________ There are thirty books of the Bible in this paragraph. Can you find them? This is the most remarkable puzzle. it was found by a gentlemen in an airplane seat pocket, on a flight from Los Angeles to Honolulu, keeping him occupied for hours. He enjoyed it so much he passed it on to some friends. One friend from Illinois worked on this while fishing from his john boat. Another friend studied it while playing his banjo. Elaine Taylor, a columnist friend, was so intrigued by it she mentioned it in her weekly newspaper. Another friend judges the job of solving so involving, she brews a cup a tea to help her nerves. There will be some names that are really easy to spot. That's a fact. Some people will soon find themselves in a jam, especially since the book names are not necessarily capitalized. Truthfully, from answers we get, we are forced to admit it usually takes a Minister or scholar to see some of them at the worst. Research has shown that something in our genes is responsible for the difficulty we have in seeing the books in this paragraph. During a recent fund raising event, which features this puzzle, the Alpha Delta Philemonade booth set a new sales record. The local paper, The Chronicle, surveyed over 200 patrons who reported that this puzzle was one of the most difficult they had ever seen. As Daniel Humana humbly puts it " the books are right here in plain view, hidden from sight." Those able to find all of them will hear great lamentations from those who have to be shown. One revelation that may help in that books like Timothy and Samuel may occur without their numbers. Also keep in mind that punctuation and spaces in the middle are normal. A chipper attitude will help you compete really well against those who claim to know the answers. Remember there is no need for a mad exodus. There really are thirty books of the Bible lurking somewhere in these paragraphs waiting to be found. GOOD LUCK.

I took the message you shared here and found only 15 names of books of the Bible on my first quick review.
This is going to be challening and fun. Thanks for posting this. I'll get back to you when I find more. I hope I can find the next 15 without too much of a struggle.

Fantastic...I know many more are working this. Lets hold back the proof of our finds for awhile so as to give some fun to those whome (or who?.. is their an english teacher here?) may find this even more challenging that others.
I thought this game was a "real hoot". ![]()

Oh , they are really there.
This one is good. I need to take a break before I look for the final four. Please do not post the answers until I find them all.

I think you may have copied it wrong. I have seen http://www.christianblog.com/staff/g...ks_answer.html
and some of the words are different. One especially relating to the book of amos

that I didn't realize the puzzle wasn't copied properly but I was getting a feeling that something wasn't correct.
Thanks so much for putting the right puzzle on here. Yeah,,,,,,,, It's all done now. Still enjoyed working on it.

I had received this about 6 months ago from a friend and worked on it for 3 days off and on. I do have all 30, but I won't post them unless you ask. It was very difficult, I have to be honest I had an extra pair of eyes (friend) spot some.

having a friend help spot the last 3 would help -- having a copy with all the sentences helps, too.
It was nice.
