The Strangest Man
A Strange Man
I met the strangest man on the
way to church.
He said he believed the Bible,
but he never reads it.
He said he thought well of the
church of which he is a member, but he
never attends.
He said a man should be honest
with God in money matters, but he never tithes.
He said the younger generation
needs the Lord, but he isn’t leading
them in that direction.
He said the church needs
dedicated Christian members, but he
isn’t one.
He said the church should do
more in ministering to people, but he
doesn’t help.
He is critical of some of the
workers, but he never works.
He is critical of the way the
church is “run” but he never
participates.
He says the Lord is surely
coming, but he lives as though the Lord will never return.
He says prayer will change
things, but he never prays.
HE WAS A STRANGE MAN, INDEED.
