Jesus

A young lady named Sally, relates an experience she had in a seminary class, given by her teacher, Dr. Smith.

She says that Dr. Smith was known for his elaborate object lessons.

One particular day, Sally walked into the seminary and knew they were in for a fun day.

On the wall was a big target and on a nearby table were many darts.

Dr. Smith told the students to draw a picture of someone that they disliked or someone who had made them angry and he would allow them to throw darts at the person's picture

Sally's friend drew a picture of the girl who had "stolen" her boyfriend. Another friend drew a picture of his little brother. Sally drew a picture of a former friend, putting a great deal of detail into her drawing, even drawing pimples on the face. Sally was pleased with the overall effect she had achieved.

The class lined up and began throwing darts.

Some of the students threw their darts with such force that their targets were ripping apart. Sally looked forward to her turn and was most disappointed when Dr. Smith, because of time limits, asked the students to return to their seats. As Sally sat thinking about how angry she was because she didn't have a chance to throw any darts at her target, Dr. Smith removed the target from the wall.

Underneath the target was a large picture of Jesus!

A hush fell over the room as each student viewed the mangled picture of Jesus; holes and jagged marks covered His face and His eyes were pierced.

Dr. Smith said only these words... "In as much as you have done it unto the least of these my brethren, you have done it unto Me"

Matthew 25:40

No other words were necessary; tears filled the eyes of the students focused only on the picture of Christ.

The picture underneath the target could just as easily have been that of Mohammed or Shiva or Buddha or any other great spiritual teacher. The point is exactly the same.

This is an easy test; you score 100 or zero. It's your choice.

If you aren't ashamed to do this, please follow the directions

Not ashamed ... pass this on

Ashamed ... ignore it

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 we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible, the Koran, the Mahabarata, the Talmud, and all and any other spiritual teaching says?

Isn't it funny how everyone wants to go to heaven provided they do not have to believe, think, say, or do anything the Spiritual Teachings say?

Or is it scary?

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 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?

Isn't it funny how the lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene pass freely through cyberspace, but the public discussion of Jesus, Mohammed, Krishna, JAWEH, Zoroaster, et.al. is suppressed in the school and workplace?

Isn't it funny how someone can be so fired up for Allah on Friday, JAWEH on Saturday, Jesus on Sunday, Indra at 4 a.m. each day but be spiritually invisible and ignorant the rest of the week?

Are you laughing?

Isn't it funny how when you go to forward this message, you will not send it to many on your address list because you're not sure what they believe, or what they will think of you for sending it to them?

Isn't it funny how you can be more worried about what other people think of you than what God thinks of you?

Will YOU pass this on? ... I did.
