KNOWING SCRIPTURE MAY SAVE YOUR LIFE

An elderly woman had just returned to her home from an
evening of church services when she was startled by an intruder. She caught the man in the act of robbing her home of its valuables and yelled, "STOP! Acts 2:38!"
(Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.)

The burglar stopped dead short in his tracks. The woman then calmly called the police and explained what she had done.
As the officer cuffed the man to take him in, he asked
the burglar, "Why did you just stand there? All the old lady did was yell a scripture to you."

"Scripture?!!" replied the burglar. "I thought she said she had an axe and two .38's!"




There is always one more imbecile than you counted on.
Hypocrisy is the homage paid by vice to virtue.
Don't assume malice for what stupidity can explain.
