[Jesus Christ’s] victory, of course, does not mean that we rush off to kill all our enemies. It means instead that we are to love them. Our love for them must be strong enough, however, to tell them with both passion and compassion, that their hopes are in vain, that their gods are mute and dumb, and that there is only one name under heaven by which a man must be saved. Our love for them does not present the Christian Gospel as an option. It does not lead us to argue that it’s a good option that has worked well for us. Our love instead commands all men everywhere to repent and believe the Gospel, lest they perish. Our love calls on all our enemies to kiss the Son, lest He be angry and they perish along the way (Ps. 2:12).

Three Men In A Restaurant Was Sent To Me By a Subscriber To Clean-Hewmor Thanks To "Steve Wegman"

An Irishman in a wheel chair entered a restaurant one afternoon and asked
the waitress for a cup of coffee. The Irishman looked across the restaurant
and asked, "Is that Jesus sitting over there?" The waitress nodded "yes," so
the Irishman told her to give Jesus a cup of coffee on him.

The next patron to come in was an Englishman with a hunched back. He
shuffled over to a booth, painfully sat down, and asked the waitress for a
cup of hot tea. He also glanced across the restaurant and asked, "Is that
Jesus over there?" The waitress nodded again, so the Englishman said to give
Jesus a cup of hot tea, too.

The third patron to come into the restaurant was a Redneck on crutches. He
hobbled over to a booth, sat down and hollered, "Hey there sweet thang,
how's about gettin' me a cold glass of Coke!" He too, looked across the
restaurant and asked, "Is that God's boy over there?" The waitress nodded
again, so the Redneck said to give Jesus a cold glass of Coke, too.

As Jesus got up to leave, he passed by the Irishman, touched him and said,
"For your kindness, you are healed." The Irishman felt the strength come
back into his legs, got up and danced a jig out the door.

Jesus also passed by the Englishman, touched him and said, "For your
kindness, you are healed." The Englishman felt his back straightening up,
and he raised up his hands, praised the Lord and did a series of back flips
out the door.

Then Jesus walked towards the Redneck. The Redneck jumped up and yelled,
"Hey, man, don't touch me...I'm drawin' disability!"

Sunday Morning Preacher

One Sunday morning a preacher was the visiting speaker at a church in a neighboring county. Recognizing that some congregations have certain expectations about sermon length, and not being familiar with traditions of the church he was visiting, he turned to the pastor just before the service was about to begin and whispered, "How long can I preach?"

The pastor replied, "Preach as long a you want."

Just as the visiting preacher started to smile with the satisfaction that he could preach his fill, the pastor leaned over and added, "But, you should know that our congregation always gets through listening promptly at 12 noon."

Have a Blessed Day
