Christian One Liners
2. Some people are kind, polite, and sweet-spirited Until you try to sit in their pews.
3. Many folks want to serve God, But only as advisers.
4. It is easier to preach ten sermons Than it is to live one.
5. The good Lord didn't create anything without a purpose, But mosquitoes come close.
6, When you get to your wit's end, You'll find God lives there.
7. People are funny; they want the front of the bus, Middle of the road, And back of the church. (I must add for the benefit of those who call themselves the church of Christ, would call it the 'building.')
8. Opportunity may knock once, But temptation bangs on the front door forever.
9. Quit griping about your church; If it was perfect, you couldn't belong.

11. We're called to be witnesses, not lawyers or judges.
12. God Himself doesn't propose to judge a man until He is dead. So why should you?
13. Some minds are like concrete Thoroughly mixed up and permanently set.

WHY HAS GOD BLINDED?
Why has God blinded so many in the Near East, Middle East and Far East, so that they cannot see the Truth? Seems like when you leave England, (but there are so many non-Christians located there) and go east, seems they become more blind! Iz just know you know the rest of the story?
***********************************************
DISCIPLINE, EDUCATION, AND WOMEN
God created Woman to be natural born teachers of children! Why are we having so many problems with discipline in the home, in the schools, on the street? From birth up to age of accountability, woman is Queen? At that point, the Man of the house (if there is one) is suppose to take charge (this is within the Order of the Creation of God). Which came first, the chicken or the egg? God created Man, then Woman. Through the chain of events (natural order) created by God, Woman is never to be over or in charge of Man! So, the breakdown of discipline in the home, school and street lies in the fault of man/woman not following the principles set forth by God. When a child reaches the age of accountability (about age 12), the sternness of a man (but we have so many mouses/wimps) is suppose to take over. So we can naturally understand that beginning in the sixth grade of school and throughout higher schools of learning, there should be a MAN doing the teaching.

Funny You Should Ask!
A Jewish businessman in Chicago sent his son to Israel for a year to absorb the culture.
When the son returned, he said - "Papa, I had a great time in Israel.
By the way, I converted to Christianity."
"Oy vey," said the father, "what have I done!" He took his problem to his best friend. "Ike," he said, "I sent my son to Israel, and he came home a Christian. What can I do?"
"Funny you should ask," said Ike. "I, too, sent my son to Israel, and he also came home a Christian. Perhaps we should go see the Rabbi."
They explained their problem to the rabbi. "Funny you should ask," said the Rabbi. "I, too, sent my son to Israel, and he also came home a Christian.

IRAQ - VERY INTERESTING - DID YOU KNOW?
2. Mesopotamia, which is now Iraq, was the cradle of civilization!
3. Noah built the ark in Iraq.
4. The Tower of Babel was in Iraq.
5. Abraham was from Ur, which is in Southern Iraq!
6. Isaac's wife Rebekah is from Nahor, which is in Iraq.
7. Jacob met Rachel in Iraq.
8. Jonah preached in Nineveh - which is in Iraq.
9. Assyria, which is in Iraq, conquered the TWELVE tribes of Israel.
10. Amos cried out in Iraq!
11. Babylon, which is in Iraq, destroyed Jerusalem.
12. Daniel was in the lion's den in Iraq!
13. The three Hebrew children were in the fire in Iraq (Jesus had been in
Iraq also as the fourth person in the fiery furnace!)
14. Belshazzar, the King of Babylon saw the "writing on the wall" in Iraq.
15. Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, carried the Jews captive into Iraq.
16. Ezekiel preached in Iraq.
17. The wise men were from Iraq.
18. Peter preached in Iraq.
19. The "Empire of Man" described in Revelation is called Babylon, which was
a city in Iraq!
And you have probably seen this one. Israel is the nation most often
mentioned in the Bible. But do you know which nation is second? It is Iraq! However, that is
not the name that is used in the Bible. The names used in the Bible are Babylon, Land of Shinar,
and Mesopotamia. The word Mesopotamia means between the two rivers, more exactly
between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. The name Iraq, means country with deep roots. Indeed
Iraq is a country with deep roots and is a very significant country in the Bible.
No other nation, except Israel, has more history and prophecy associated it than Iraq.

NOAH IN THE YEAR 2011
It is the year 2011 and Noah lives in the United States.
In a flash of lightning, God delivered the specifications for an Ark. Fearful and trembling, Noah took the plans and agreed to build the Ark. "Remember," said the God, "You must complete the Ark and bring everything aboard in one year."
Exactly one year later, a fierce storm cloud covered the earth and all the seas of the earth went into a tumult.
"Lord please forgive me!" cried Noah. "I did my best but there were big problems. First, I had to get a permit for construction and your plans did not comply with the codes. I had to hire an Architectural and Engineering firm and redraw the plans. Then I got into a fight with OSHA over whether or not the Ark needed a fire sprinkler system and floatation devices. Then my neighbor objected, claiming I was violating zoning ordinances by building the Ark in my front yard, so I had to get a variance from the city planning commission. I had problems getting enough wood for the Ark, because there was a ban on cutting trees to protect the Spotted Owl. I finally convinced the US Forest Service that I needed the wood to save the owls. However, the Fish and Wildlife Service won't let me catch any owls. So, no owls. The carpenters formed a union and went out on strike. I had to negotiate a settlement with the National Labor Union. Now I have 16 carpenters on the Ark, but still no owls. When I started rounding up the other animals, I got sued by an animal rights group. They objected to me only taking two of each kind aboard. Just when I got the suit dismissed, the EPA notified me that I could not complete the Ark without filing an environmental impact statement on your proposed flood. They didn't take very kindly to the idea that they had no jurisdiction over the conduct of the Creator of the universe. Then the Army Corps of Engineers demanded a map of the proposed new flood plain. I sent them a globe. Right now, I am trying to resolve a complaint filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission that I am practicing discrimination by not taking godless, unbelieving people aboard! The IRS has seized all my assets, claiming that I'm building
the Ark in preparation to flee the country to avoid paying taxes. I just got a notice from the State that I owe some kind of user tax and failed to register the Ark as a "recreational water craft." Finally the ACLU got the courts to issue an injunction against further construction of the Ark, saying that since God is flooding the earth, it is a religious event and therefore unconstitutional. I really don't think I can finish the Ark for another 5 or 6 years!" Noah wailed.
The sky began to clear, the sun began to shine and the seas began to calm. A rainbow arched across the sky.
Noah looked up hopefully. "You mean you are not going to destroy the earth, Lord?"
"No," said the Lord sadly. "The government already has."
**********************************************
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
In the Beginning, God Planned for the TWO NATURES of mankind; the God-like (positive) and the Old Sin Nature (negative)! Ironically, He, God planned both at the same time, just that He reveals the steps in two for the benefit of mankind's understanding. Therefore, we will say He created the 'negative' (Angels, out of which came Lucifer) then the 'positive' (mankind).
He, God, created MAN and placed him in The Garden; then He created WOMAN, out of MAN, and gave her to MAN as a helpmate (Eve, the Helpmate, decided she wanted to be a Woman, as a result, she became an Underminder). Next, God implemented the negative nature of mankind, by telling MAN and WOMAN not to eat of the "fruit." As you know, when you tell a child not to do something, the OSN of the child is going to try it! So, God knowing the two natures of mankind, told them not to eat of the fruit! Now, the story really gets a boost, when God told Moses to write The Ten Commandments onto stone tablets; knowing full-well that mankind was going to try each of the them!
Which of the two natures in you are you feeding the most? If you are a Believer in that Jesus Christ is your Personal Saviour, then the two natures of you are at war; each trying to control you!
OK, we do not want to leave you dangling with this one, so, let me assure you that God has provided a way out of this situation; He created a Way through His Son, Jesus Christ, to cover your sins! Just how much are you going to sin? God knows, but, you don't!
IMPORTANT NOTE: I could say, if only God had provided that once I believed in His Son, Jesus Christ, that the OSN would have been removed from my physical being, therefore, I would not sin any more! However, if God had made that provision, then the believer (male) would not be able to pass the OSN on to his children! There is a lot of Doctrine in these two sentences.

****O DEATH, WHERE IS THY STING?****
**********************************************
P.U.S.H.
A man was sleeping one night in his cabin when suddenly his room filled
with light, and God appeared. The Lord told the man he had work for him
to do, and showed him a large rock in front of his cabin. The Lord
explained that the man was to push against the rock with all his might.
So, this the man did, day after day. For many years he toiled from sunup
to sundown, his shoulders set squarely against the cold, massive
surface of the unmoving rock, pushing with all of his might. Each night the man returned to his cabin sore and worn out, feeling that his whole day had been spent in vain.
Since the man was showing discouragement, the Adversary (Satan) decided to enter the picture by placing thoughts into the weary mind: "You have been pushing against that rock for a long time and it hasn't moved " Thus, he gave the man the impression that the task was impossible and that he was a failure. These thoughts discouraged and disheartened the man. Satan said, "Why kill yourself over this? Just put in your time, giving just the minimum effort; and that will be good enough."
That's what the weary man planned to do, but decided to make it a matter
of prayer and to take his troubled thoughts to the Lord. "Lord," he
said, "I have labored long and hard in your service, putting all my strength to do that which you have asked. Yet, after all this time, I have not even budged that rock by half a millimeter. What is wrong? Why am I failing?"
The Lord responded compassionately, "My friend, when I asked you to
serve Me and you accepted, I told you that your task was to push against the rock with all of your strength, which you have done. Never once did I
mention to you that I expected you to move it. Your task was to push.
And now you come to Me with your strength spent, thinking that you have failed. But, is that really so? Look at yourself.
Your arms are strong and muscled, your back smooth and brown; your hands are callused from constant pressure, your legs have become massive and hard. Through opposition you have grown much, and your abilities now surpass that which you used to have. True, you haven't moved the rock. But your calling was to be obedient and to push and to exercise your faith and trust in My wisdom. That you have done. Now, I, my friend, will move the rock."
At times, when we hear a word from God, we tend to use our own
intellect to decipher what He wants, when actually what God wants is just simple obedience and faith in Him. By all means, exercise the faith that moves mountains, but know that it is still God who moves the mountains.
When everything seems to go wrong, just P.U.S.H.!
When the job gets you down, just P.U.S.H.!
When people don't do as you think they should, just P.U.S.H.!
When you can't find the right work, just P.U.S.H.!
When your money is "gone" and the bills are due, just P.U.S.H!
When people just don't understand you, just P.U.S.H.!

SISTER OF SATAN
People were in their pews talking at church.
Suddenly, Satan appeared at the front of the
church. Everyone started screaming and running
for the front entrance, trampling each other in
a frantic effort to get away from evil incarnate.
Soon everyone had exited the church except for one
elderly gentleman who sat calmly in his pew
without moving, seeming oblivious to the fact
that God's ultimate enemy was in his presence.
So Satan walked up to the old man and said, "Don't
you know who I am?
The man replied, "Yep, sure do."
"Aren't you afraid of me?" Satan asked.
"Nope, sure ain't." said the man.
"Don't you realize I can kill with a word?" asked Satan.
"Don't doubt it for a minute," returned the old
man, in an even tone.
Did you know that I could cause you profound
horrifying, agony for all eternity?" persisted Satan.
"Yep," was the calm reply.
"And you're still not afraid?" asked Satan.
"Nope," said the old man.
More than a little perturbed, Satan asked, "Well,
why aren't you afraid of me?"
The man calmly replied, "Been married to your sister for 44 years."

ROSE BUDS AND HANGING BASKETS
A teenage granddaughter comes downstairs for her date with this see-through blouse on and no bra. Her grandmother just pitched a fit, telling her not to dare go out like that! The teenager tells her "Loosen up Grams. These are modern times. You gotta let your Rose Buds show!" and out she goes. The next day the teenager comes down stairs, and the grandmother is sitting there with no top on. The teenager wants to die. She explains to her grandmother that she has friends coming over and that it is just not appropriate... The grandmother says, "Loosen up, Sweetie. If you can show off your rose buds, then I can display my Hanging Baskets."

THE BRICK
A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar.
He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something.
As his car passed, no children appeared. Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag's side door!
He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to the spot where the brick had been thrown.
The angry driver then jumped out of the car, grabbed the nearest kid and pushed him up against a parked car shouting,
"What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing?
That's a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?"
The young boy was apologetic. "Please, mister..please, I'm sorry but I didn't know what else to do," He pleaded.
"I threw the brick because no one else would stop..." With tears dripping down his face he pointed to a spot just around a parked car.
"It's my brother," he said. "He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up."
Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive, "Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me."
Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat.
He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair, then took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the fresh scrapes and cuts.
A quick look told him everything was going to be okay.. "Thank you and may God bless you," the grateful child told the stranger.
Too shook up for words, the man simply watched the boy push his wheelchair-bound brother down the sidewalk toward their home.
It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair the dented side door.
He did not repair the dent to remind him of this message "Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention!"
God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts. Sometimes when we don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at us. It's our choice to listen or not.

KEEP YOUR FORK - the best is yet to come!
There was a young woman who had been diagnosed with a terminal illness
and had been given three months to live. So, as she was getting her
things "in order," she contacted her Minister and had him come to her
house to discuss certain aspects of her final wishes. She told him
which songs she wanted sung at the service, what scriptures she would
like read, and what outfit she wanted to be buried in.
Everything was in order, and the Minister was preparing to leave, when
the young woman suddenly remembered something very important to her.
"There's one more thing," she said excitedly. "What's that?" came the
Minister's reply. "This is very important," the young woman continued.
"I want to be buried with a fork in my right hand."
The Minister stood looking at the young woman, not knowing quite what to
say.
"That surprises you, doesn't it?" the young woman asked.
"Well, to be honest, I'm puzzled by the request," said the Minister.
The young woman explained. "My grandmother once told me this story, and
from there on out, I have always done so. I have also always tried to
pass along its message to those I love and those who are in need of
encouragement. In all my years of attending church socials and potluck
dinners, I always remember that when the dishes of the main course were
being cleared, someone would inevitably lean over and say, 'Keep your
fork.' It was my favorite part because I knew that something better was
coming...like velvety chocolate cake or deep-dish apple pie; something
wonderful, and with substance!"
"So, I just want people to see me there in that casket with a fork in my
hand, and I want them to wonder 'What's with the fork?' Then, I want you
to tell them: 'Keep your fork - the best is yet to come.'"
The Minister's eyes welled up with tears of joy as he hugged the young
woman goodbye. He knew this would be one of the last times he would see
her before her death. But he also knew that the young woman had a better
grasp of heaven than he did. She had a better grasp of what heaven would
be like than many people twice her age, with twice as much experience
and knowledge. She KNEW that something better was coming.
At the funeral, people were walking by the young woman's casket and they
saw the pretty dress she was wearing and the fork placed in her right
hand. Over and over, the Minister heard the question "What's with the
fork?"
And over and over he smiled.
During his message, the Minister told the people of the conversation he
had with the young woman shortly before she died. He also told them
about the fork and about what it symbolized to her.
The Minister told the people how he could not stop thinking about the
fork and told them that they probably would not be able to stop thinking
about it either.
He was right.
So, the next time you reach down for your fork; let it remind you ever
so gently, that the best is yet to come. Friends are a very rare jewel,
indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an
ear, they share a word of praise, and they always want to open their
hearts to us.
Cherish the time you have, and the memories you share... being friends
with someone is not an opportunity but a sweet responsibility.
Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND,

CHILD ABUSE!
Do you know Sarah?
My name is Sarah
I am but three,
My eyes are swollen
I cannot see,
I must be stupid
I must be bad,
What else could have made
My daddy so mad?
I wish I were better
I wish I weren't ugly,
Then maybe my mommy
would still want to hug me.
I can't speak at all
I can't do a wrong
Or else I'm locked up
All the day long.
When I awake I'm all alone
The house is dark
My folks aren't home.
When my mommy does come
I'll try and be nice,
So maybe I'll get just
One whipping tonight.
Don't make a sound!
I just heard a car
My daddy is back
From Buster's Bar.
I hear him curse
My name he calls
I press myself
against the wall.
I try and hide
From his evil eyes
I'm so afraid now
I'm starting to cry.
He finds me weeping
He shouts ugly words,
He says its my ! fault
That he suffers at work.
He slaps me and hits me
And yells at me more,
I finally get free
And I run for the door.
He's already locked it
And I start to bawl,
He takes me and throws me
Against the hard wall.
I fall to the floor
With my bones nearly broken,
And my daddy continues
With more bad words spoken.
"I'm sorry!", I scream
But its now much too late
His face has been twisted
Into unimaginable hate.
The hurt and the pain
Again and again
Oh please God, have mercy!
Oh please let it end!
And he finally stops
And heads for the door,
While I lay there motionless
sprawled on the floor.
My name is Sarah
and I am but three,
tonight my daddy
murdered me.~Anonymous~

THE ATHEIST
An atheist was taking a walk through the woods.
He said to himself:
What majestic trees!
What powerful rivers!
What beautiful animals!"
As he was walking along side 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. He ran as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder and saw that the bear was closing in on him.
He looked over his shoulder again, and the bear was even closer. He tripped and fell on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up but saw the bear right on top of him, reaching for him
with his left paw and raising his right paw to strike him.
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 booming voice came out of the sky:
"You deny my existence for all of these years, teach others I don't exist, and even credit creation to a 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.
The bear dropped his right paw, brought both paws together and bowed his head and spoke:
"Lord, bless this food, which I am about to receive from thy bounty through Christ our Lord,
Amen."

When you study Bible Doctrine (I must say that it is hard to find where it is taught), you can learn about God, Jesus Christ, and yourself. Study your zodiac sign and learn about yourself and who your compatible partner shoud be. MOST IMPORTANT, share these with your parents, siblings, and children; not to mention others!

astrology and the Bible (Bible Doctrine), as required subjects in school
and college? The reason: mine and your protection! A very limited number of teachers know much about the Bible, much less knowing anything about Bible Doctrine! I sure wish I had known more than 50 years
ago what I know and understand, today about these two
very important items that relate to our everyday life. NOTE: I am a firm believer that a child should be taught by a MAN when he/she reaches the age of accountability (Bible based age of 12)!

YOUR LIFE THOUGHTS, TODAY
1. Marriage changes passion.
**********************************************
TO BE SIX AGAIN
A man asked his wife what she'd like for her birthday.
"I'd love to be six again," she replied.
On the morning of her birthday, he arose early, got up made her a nice
bigbowl of Lucky Charms and then took her off to the local theme park.
What a day! He put her on every ride in the park: the Death Slide, the Wall
of Fear, the Screaming Monster Roller Coaster, every thing there was.
Five hours later she staggered out of the theme park. Her head was reeling
and her stomach felt upside down.
Right away, they journeyed to a McDonald's where her loving husband
ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a refreshing chocolate shake.
Then it was off to a movie, the latest Star Wars epic, a hot dog,
popcorn, a soda pop, and her favorite candy, M&M's.
What a fabulous adventure! Finally she wobbled home with her husband
and collapsed into bed exhausted. He leaned over his precious wife with a
bigsmile and lovingly asked, "Well, Dear, what was it like being six
again?"
Her eyes slowly opened and her expression suddenly changed. "You idiot,
I meant my dress size!"
The moral of the story: Even when a man is listening, he is gonna get it
wrong.
**********************************************
GOD'S HUMOR
Jesus and Satan were having an ongoing argument about who was better at using the computer. They had been going at it for days, and God was tired of hearing all the bickering.
Finally, God said, "Cool it. I am going to set up a test which will take
two hours and it will judge who does the better job."
So Satan and Jesus sat down at the keyboards and typed away.
They moused.
They did spreadsheets.
They wrote reports.
They sent faxes.
They sent e-mails.
They sent out e-mails with attachments.
They downloaded.
They did some genealogy reports.
They made cards.
They did every known job.
But, ten minutes before the time was up, lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, thunder rolled, the rain poured, and of course, the electricity went off.
Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word known.
Jesus just sighed. The electricity finally flickered back on, and each of them restarted their computers.
Satan started searching frantically screaming, "It's gone! It's all gone! I lost everything when the power went out!"
Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all his files from the past two hours.
Satan observed this and became even more irate.
"Wait! He cheated! How did he do it??!!"
(You'll love the punch line....)
God shrugged and said,
~*JESUS SAVES*~

QUESTION: Which Heart?
Just scroll down and choose!
There is a curve called Failure,
a loop called Confusion,
speed bumps called Friends,
red lights called Enemies,

You will have flats called Jobs.
But, if you have a spare called Determination,
an engine called Perseverance,
insurance called Faith,
a driver called Jesus,
you will make it to a place called Success.
Pass this on to your family and friends!
A (act of) R (random) K (kindness)
Did you catch the movie "Evan Almighty" depicting the story of the Ark, and how things are with the United States Congress, and, of course, the current state of disbelief?
Pray Until Something Happens
(You must change, GOD does not react to what you ask! HE tied HIS OWN HANDS! Umm, lotsa Doctrine in this!)
(BUT , remember, watch what you Pray for, the Golden Rule might not be for me or others!)
When YOU go into the prayer mode, you trigger the chemicals in your body, and mind which causes the change!
What is happening to our young people?"
Then they prayed, telling God about their sons, and asked Him what they should do.
As they finished their prayers, a voice came booming from the heavens: "Funny you should ask," said the voice. "I, too, sent my son to Israel ......!

3. Greece,
4. Rome (Phase 1), (so, this thinking leads me to believe that the United States must bow down to the European Union, in the near future, so that Phase 2 can come into play), and
5. Rome Phase 2. (following the Rapture of the Church)
God speaks to Noah and says: "In one year I am going to make it rain and cover the whole earth with water until all is destroyed. But I want you to save the righteous people and two of every kind of living thing on the earth. Therefore, I am commanding you to build an Ark."
God saw Noah sitting in his front yard weeping. "Noah," He shouted, "Where is the Ark?"
1 Corinthians 15:55
Even in Death, God has the Believer covered!
Just that most Believers do not understand!
We call it "scales over the eyes", therefore cannot see the truth!
Or, we have just never been taught the reality of!
