FUNNY ISN'T IT?
Funny how a $100 "looks" so big when you take it to church,
but so small when you take it to the mall.
Funny how long it takes to serve God for an hour,
but how quickly a team plays 60 minutes of basketball.
Funny how long a couple of hours spent at church are,
but how short they are when watching a movie.
Funny how we can't think of anything to say when we pray,
but don't have difficulty thinking of things to talk about to a friend.
Funny how we get thrilled when a baseball game goes into extra innings,
but we complain when a sermon is longer than the regular time.
Funny how hard it is to read a chapter in the Bible,
but how easy it is to read 100 pages of a best selling novel.
Funny how people want to get a front seat at any game or concert,
but scramble to get a back seat at church services.
Funny how we need 2 or 3 weeks advance notice to fit a church event into our
schedule,
but can adjust our schedule for other events at the last moment.
Funny how hard it is for people to learn a simple gospel well enough to tell
others,
but how simple it is for the same people to understand and repeat gossip.
Funny how we believe what the newspaper says,
but question what the Bible says.
Funny how everyone wants to go to heaven provided they do not have
to believe, or think, or say, or do anything.
Funny how you can send a thousand 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like
wildfire,
but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about
sharing.
FUNNY, ISN'T IT ?
Are you laughing?
Are you thinking?
Spread the Word and give thanks to the Lord for He is good!
One day Satan and Jesus were having a Conversation. Satan had just come from the Garden of Eden, and he was gloating and boasting.
"Yes, sir, I just caught the world full of people down there. Set me a trap, used bait I knew they couldn't resist. Got 'em all!"
"What are you going to do with them?" Jesus asked.
Satan replied, "Oh, I'm gonna have fun! I'm gonna teach them how to marry and divorce each other, how to hate and abuse each other, how to drink and smoke and curse. I'm gonna teach them how to invent guns and bombs and kill each other. I'm really gonna have fun!"
"And what will you do when you get done with them?" Jesus asked.
"Oh, I'll kill them," Satan glared proudly.
"How much do you want for them?" Jesus asked.
"Oh, you don't want those people. They ain't no good. Why, you'll take them and they'll just hate you. They'll spit on you, curse you and kill you!! You don't want those people!!"
"How much?" He asked again.
Satan looked at Jesus and sneered, "All your TEARS, and all your BLOOD."
Jesus said, "DONE!"
Then He paid the price.
(Another version)
Isn't it funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell.
Isn't it funny how someone can say "I believe in God" but still follow Satan (who, by the way, also "believes" in God).
Isn't it funny how the lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene pass freely through cyberspace, but the public discussion of Jesus is suppressed in the school and workplace.
Isn't it funny how someone can be so fired up for Christ on Sunday, but be an invisible Christian the rest of the week.
Are you laughing YET?
Isn't it funny how I can be more worried about what other people think of me than what God thinks of me. Who will pass this on?
