Would you miss it?

If Leviticus, II Chronicles or Jude suddenly disappeared from your Bible, how long before you would miss it? That thought was in an article I read today. It made all the more convicting because I just told a dear friend this week that in her reading through the Bible God didn't care if she skipped Leviticus!
A recent survey of American teens revealed that 28% didn't know who Moses was and 10% thought he was one of Jesus' disciples!
Muslims put Christians to shame in that they treat their scriptures as divine, a recitation of God's words, unfiltered speech. Christians not only have dusty Bibles, they, for the most part, are not clear what is even in them!
What Christ is for Christians, the Qur'an is to Muslims, the living Word of God made present in this world. Pity we don't know more about it and Him.
