This brought to recollection a good story. True, too. There was a youth pastor in Florida a few years ago who was doing a skit with his youth group on a Sunday morning. In this skit, a person comitted suicide. They were to use a pistol held to the temple and shoot blanks. When the time came, for some reason, the young man who was to play the suicide dude couldn't make it, so the youth pastor stood in. When he shot the gun, the concussion from the blank blew out his temple, and he died on the spot! At first everyone just thought it was a good piece of acting, but when he didn't get up, they all knew something was wrong. They said it really hit home, and certainly got the point across. Think this youth pastor was in the "perfect will of God"? ----- Original Message ----- From: Doc EagleDad Sent: Friday, March 22, 2002 11:00 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: *All.. [RR] WHEW!!
*Sorry to blow up at the $20 bill "trick"..
Here's another one that I saw..
Childrens preacher, brings in a warm fuzzy puppy.
Later..suddenly.. a "Bad man" come to take the dog away.
Childrens pastor calls on the kids to pray.
Pray Hard!
Then the puppy returns!
*Nuff said..
Just to let you know, I'm also "on it" over
Guns being used as props in any form and leading
devotions into extreamist views of social order.
