{I sooo use my TOC}

#521. Judging people that use the table of contents in their Bible.


Stop, just stop, it's too late.

I saw you.

We were just told to turn to Nahum 2:4 by our pastor and out of the corner of my eye I saw you flip to the table of contents in your Bible.Don't, don't try to explain yourself. I thought you loved God. I thought that when we weren't at church together you were off somewhere reading your Bible, but clearly that was a mistake on my part. How long has this been going on, this, ugh, I don't even like how the words feel in my mouth, this "using the table of contents to find books of the Bible?"I felt like we had made so much progress. When we first met you had a Bible with those indents, those "dumb thumbs." As in, “I'm dumb, I can't find Titus, here is where I place my thumb.” But we got through that, we pushed through that and got you a grown up Bible without indents marking the different books.And then today, today I catch you using the table of contents?

Who are you?

I don’t even know you any more.Sure, you can find Psalms.
Congratulations, you know where Psalms is. Everyone can find that book. It's 60 pages long and in the middle. Yeah, that's right, in addition to the location of the books of the Bible I know the length of each book.Do you know what I did with my table of contents? I ripped it out and rolled it into a homemade shofar horn that I blow when it’s time for my family to come down and read our nightly Bible studies.Go on, look up Nahum. It's too late to save face now. You'll find it on page 1466 and it's only seven pages long.

But what am I telling you for? You've probably confused Nahum with the Marvel comics anti-hero, Namor the Sub-Mariner, prince of Atlantis, grandson of the Atlantean Emperor Thakorr.I'm so embarrassed for you.
