CAN YOU FIND 18 BOOKS OF THE BIBLE IN THIS PARAGRAPH????

[Watch Out for a plural]

"Someone showed me this story and remarked that there are eighteen 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 names are not capitalized and often leap the spaces between 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 sometimes takes a minister to find one of them and that is not uncommon for there 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 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 eighteen 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 Battle Hymn of the Republic or hose a dog (a mean one). Get to it!"
