I have GOT to study this. I STILL don't have a clue which book follows the other OR how many chapters are in each book.
Ok, i know there are 66 books in the Bible, and i know that there's Proverbs, Psalms, and Isaiah (i better check, wait a minute hahaa).
It's NOT, ugh! See what i mean? Ok, 2 books i am not familiar with, come before Isaiah (Ecclesiastes and Song of Songs).
Oh, and i know that the 1st book of the Bible is Genesis!!!! Yay!!!! And then there's let's see....Exodus, and then after that i get lost in the sauce
But have no fear, i have FOUND something that i already just LOVE. It's this very clear and uncluttered and beautiful in its simplicity, a chart of sorts that comes right out and shows me....now if i could just FOCUS and STUDY it. i'm praying as i type that God helps me, cuz i wanna do this for HIM. i SHOULD want to know HIM and His WORD, right?
I mean, after all, there's treasures upon treasures in there, right?
