Linda Wright sent this:-

A Pastor was telling a group of children that they must be good if the want to go to heaven.

Questioning them later he asked them "Where do YOU want to go?"

"To Heaven" said Suzie.

And what do you have to get there?" he asked.

"Dead" piped up little Jimmy.

 

 

 
A novice monk arrived at a monastery. He was soon assigned to help the other monks with copying the old texts by hand. He noticed, however, that they were copying from copies and not from the original manuscripts. So the novice went to the Abbot to ask him about this. He pointed out that if there were an error in the first copy, that error would be continued in all of the other copies.

The Abbot replied, "We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point my son". So he went down into the cellar taking one of the copies to check against the original. Many hours later, nobody had seen him return. So one of the monks went downstairs to look for him. He heard sobbing coming from the back of the cellar and eventually found the Abbot leaning over e of the original books crying. He asked quietly "What's wrong?"

"The word is celebrate", replied the Abbot.

Grandma Bought a Bumper Sticker for Her Old Thunderbird and was so excited she wrote the following letter to all
her family:

Dear Family:

The other day I went to the local Christian Book Store where I saw a 'Honk If You Love Jesus' sticker. I bought it and put it on the back bumper of my car, and I'm really glad that I did! What an uplifting experience followed!

I was stopped at the light of a busy intersection just
lost in thought about the Lord, and I didn't notice
the light had changed. That bumper sticker really worked! I found lots of folks who love Jesus.

Why, the guy behind me started honking like crazy! He must really love the Lord because pretty soon he leaned out the window and yelled Jesus Christ! as loud as he could! It was like a football game, with him shouting Go, Jesus Christ,Go!

Everyone else was soon honking as well, so I leaned out my window and waved and smiled to all those loving people!
There was some guy from Florida because I could hear him yelling about a sunny beach and I saw him wave at me in a peculiar way-sticking his middle finger up in the air. Luckily, I had just asked my two Grandsons what such a gesture meant and they had looked at each other and giggled, and told me it was Hawaiian good luck sign, so I leaned out the window and returned his gesture.

A couple of people were so caught up in the joy of the
moment they actually got out of their cars and began to walk toward me! I assumed they wanted to pray, but just then I noticed the light had changed green, so I stepped on the gas. It's a good thing I did, because I was the only one to make it through the intersection before it turned back to red. Not wanting the experience to end, I looked back, and seeing all those good folks standing around, I leaned out the window and with a wide smile, held up the Hawaiian Good Luck Sign as I sped away.


Praise the Lord for such wonderful people.


Love you all,

Grandma

 
 
 

And my favorite:-

A mother superior was the passenger with young novice driving down a country road, when a demon jumped onto their bonnet (hood). The novice screeched to a halt. "Show your cross" says the mother superior. The young nun winds down the window, leans out and shouts "Get off my fucking car".

An atheist was walking through the woods.

 
"What majestic trees"!
"What powerful rivers"!
"What beautiful animals"!
He said to himself.
 
As he was walking alongside the river, he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him.    He turned to look. He saw a 7-foot grizzly bear charge towards him.

  black bear

He ran as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder & saw that the bear was closing in on him.

 
He looked over his shoulder again, & the bear was even closer. He tripped & fell on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up but saw that the bear was right on top of him, reaching for him with his left paw & raising his right paw to strike him.
 
At that instant the Atheist cried out, "Oh my God!"
 
Time Stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.
 
As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came out of the sky.
 
"You deny my existence for all these years, teach others I don’t exist and even credit creation to cosmic accident.  Do you expect me to help you out of this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer"?
 
The atheist looked directly into the light, "It would be hypocritical of me to suddenly ask you to treat me as a Christian now, but perhaps you could make the BEAR a Christian"?
 
"Very Well," said the voice.
 
The light went out. The sounds of the forest resumed. And the bear dropped his right paw, brought both paws together, bowed his head & spoke:
 
"Lord, bless this food, which I am about to receive from thy bounty through Christ our Lord, Amen."
