Jesus Is Watching You

A burglar broke into a house one night. He shone his flashlight around, looking for valuables and when he picked up a CD player to place it is his sack, a strange, disembodied voice, echoed from the dark saying, "Jesus is watching you."

He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his flashlight off and froze. When he heard nothing more after a while, he shook his head, then clicked the light back on and began searching for more valuables. Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, clear as a bell, he heard, "Jesus is watching you."

Freaked out, he shone his light around frantically, looking for the source of the voice. Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam came to rest on a parrot.

"Yep," the parrot confessed and then squawked, "I'm just trying to warn you."

The burglar relaxed. "Warn me, huh? Who in the world are you?"

"Moses," replied the bird.

"Moses?" the burglar laughed. "What kind of people would name a bird 'Moses'?"

"The kind of people that would name a rottweiller 'Jesus'."

Holmes & Watson

Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson go on a camping trip, set up their tent and fall asleep. Some hours later, Holmes wakes his faithful friend.

"Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."

Watson replies, "I see millions of stars."

"What does that tell you?" asked Sherlock.

Watson ponders for a minute.

"Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets...

Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo...

Timewise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three...

Theologically, it's evidence that the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant...

Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day today...

What does it tell you?"

Holmes is silent for a moment, then speaks. "Watson, you idiot, someone has stolen our tent!"

The Lost Chapter of Genesis

Adam was hanging around the garden of Eden feeling very lonely. so, God asked him, "What's wrong with you?"

Adam said he didn't have anyone to talk to. God said that He was going to make Adam a companion and that it would be a woman.

He said, "This pretty lady will gather food for you, she will cook for you and when you discover clothing, she will wash it for you. She will always agree with every decision you make and she will not nag you and will always be the first to admit she was wrong when you've had a disagreement. She will praise you! She will bare your children and never ask you to get up in the middle of the night to take care of them. She will NEVER have a headache and will freely give you love and passion whenever you need it."

Adam asked God, "What will a woman like this cost?"

God replied "An arm and a leg."

Then Adam asked, "What can I get for a rib?"

The rest is history or should I say "her-story"!

New Pastor

A new pastor was visiting in the homes of his congregation. At one house it seemed obvious that someone was at home but no answer came to his repeated knocks at the door. Therefore, he took out a card and wrote 'Revelation 3:20' on the back of it and stuck it in the door.

When the offering was processed the following Sunday, he found that his card had been returned. Added to it was this cryptic message, 'Genesis 3:10'. Reaching for his Bible to check out the citation, he broke up in gales of laughter...

Revelation 3:20 begins "Behold, I stand at the door and knock." Genesis 3:10 reads, "I heard your voice in the garden and I was afraid, for I was naked"!

Simply Divine

T.D. Jakes (a well-known preacher) was returning to Texas after a
speaking engagement. When his plane arrived, there was a limousine there
to transport him to his home in Dallas. As he prepared to get into the
limo, he stopped and spoke to the driver. ’You know’ he said, ’I am
almost 50 years old and I have never driven a limousine. Would you mind
if I drove it for a while?

The driver said, ’No problem, have a go at it.’ T.D. gets into the driver’s seat and they head off down the highway.

A short distance away sat a rookie State Trooper operating his first
speed trap. The long black limo went by him doing 70 in a 55 mph
zone. The trooper pulled out and easily caught the limo and got out of his patrol car to begin the procedure. The young trooper walked up to the
driver’s door and when the glass was rolled down he was surprised to see
who was driving.

He immediately excused himself and went back to his car and called his
supervisor. He told the supervisor, ’I know we are supposed to enforce the law but I also know that important people are sometimes given certain courtesies.

I need to know what I should do because I have stopped a very important
person.’ ’The supervisor asked, ’Is it the governor?’ The young trooper said, ’No, he’s more important than that.’

The supervisor said, ’Oh, so it’s the president.’ The young trooper said, ’No, he’s even more important than that.’

The supervisor finally asked, ’Well then, who is it?’

The young trooper said, I think it’s Jesus because he’s got T. D. Jakes
for a chauffeur!!!!!

Candy From a Baby

Anyone who says "Easy as taking candy from a baby", has never tried it.

Punctuality

The trouble with being punctual, is that nobody's ever there to appreciate it.

Athiest In the Woods

An atheist was walking through the woods.
"What majestic trees"!
"What powerful rivers"!
"What beautiful animals"! He said to himself.

As he was walking alongside the river, he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him.

He turned to look. He saw a 7-foot grizzly bear charging towards him.

He ran as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder & saw that the bear was closing in on him.

He looked over his shoulder again, & the bear was even closer. He tripped & fell on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up but saw that the bear was right on top of him, reaching for him with his left paw & raising his right paw to strike him.

At that instant the Atheist cried out, "Heaven help me!"

Time Stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.

As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came out of the sky. "You deny my existence for all these years, teach others I don’t exist and even credit creation to 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 behave like a Christian"?

"Very Well," said the voice.

The light went out. The sounds of the forest resumed. And the bear dropped his right paw, brought both paws together, bowed his head & spoke:

"Lord bless this food, which I am about to receive, Amen."

Battleship Story

In the darkest part of the night, a ships captain cautiously piloted his warship through the fog-shrouded waters. With straining eyes he scanned the hazy darkness, searching for dangers lurking just out of sight. Then His worst fears were realised when he saw a bright light straight ahead. It appeared to be a vessel on a collision course with his ship. To avert disaster he quickly radioed the oncoming vessel. "This is Captain Jeremiah Smith," his voice crackled over the radio. "Please alter your course 10 degrees south! Over." To the captains amazement, the foggy image did not move. Instead, he heard back on the radio, "Captain Smith. This is Private Thomas Johnson. please alter your course 10 degrees north! Over." Appalled at the audacity of the message, the captain shouted back over the radio, "Private Johnson, this is Captain Smith, and I order you to immediately alter your course 10 degree south! Over." A second time the oncoming light did not budge. "With all due respect Captain Smith," came the privates voice again, "I order you to alter your course immediately 10 degrees north! Over." Angered and frustrated that this impudent sailor would endanger the lives of his men and crew, the captain growled back over the radio, "Private Johnson. I can have you court-marshalled for this! For the last time, I command you on the authority of the United States government to alter your course 10 degrees to the South! I am a battleship!" The privates final transmission was chilling: "Captain Smith, sir. Once again with all due respect, I command you to alter your course 10 degrees to the North! I am a lighthouse!"
