This One Cracked Me Up!

A new pastor moved into town and went out one Saturday to visit his community.  All went well until he came to one house.

It was obvious that someone was home, but no one came to the door even after he knocked several times.

Finally, he took out his card, wrote on the back "Revelation 3:20" and stuck it in the door.

The next day, as he was counting the offering he found his card in the collection plate.

Below his message was a notation "Genesis 3:10."  Upon opening his Bible to the passage he let out a roar of laughter.

Revelation 3:20 reads: (Pastors note) "Behold, I stand at the door and knock.  If any man hears my voice, and opens the door, I will come into him, and will dine with him, and he with me."  Genesis 3:10 reads: "And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked."

Beautiful . . . that's an example of eschatological humor intrusion for sure!!! <grin!>

I think it's an example of how dispensationalists do theology.

No wonder they've been exposed!

(Here a verse, there a verse ... everywhere a verse, verse! - As in: "And let's see if we can squeeze this prophecy into a 1000 year retrogressive rule of Christ on earth!")

Sounds like a pastor from a "Health, Wealth and Prosperity" church - he preaches and counts the offering!

Could I get that address?

Too funny. What Pastor counts the offering? Pastor Kim, did you ever as a Pastor count the offering? Must be one of those Charismatic churches. I hear they collect the offering more than once if they do not receive the amount they want.

I'm surprised the pastor didn't immediately make a return visit, and place another card in the door marked with Rev. 22:12 ("Behold! I am coming quickly!").

And you know speaking of weird, what do we make out of Tammy Bakker standing by Jim saying he was innocent repeatedly, but when he was convicted, she then divorced him.

And not only that she married Jim's business partner and good friend? Makes one wonder how good of friends they really were you know?

Poor Tammy, she looked just awful and still wanted to go on TV to the very end. Why would she desire that?

Lastly, did anyone notice what she said she was hoping in when dying?

Sadly, another matter for probably helpful discussion in today's church.
