A woman called the Baptist minister and asked him if he would preach a funeral for her dog who had died. "I can't do that, ma'am," he said. "Why don't you try the Methodist preacher?" "All right," she said, "but can you give me some advice. How much should I pay him -- three hundred dollars or four hundred dollars?" "Hold on," he said, "I didn't know your dog was a Baptist."

4. Animals Love For 150-189 5/1992.101 Joke An aunt of mine was teaching Sunday School. She was telling the youngsters about Daniel and the Lion's Den. She had a picture of Daniel standing brave and confident with a group of lions around him. One of the little eight-year-old girls started to cry. The teacher said, "Don't cry. The lions are not going to eat Daniel." The girl said, "That's not what I'm crying about. That little lion over in the corner is not going to get any." - Saunders Guerrant, Roanoke, VA - _The Preacher Joke Book_, edited by Loyal Jones, p. 65. 5. Atheism 1225 5/1992.101 Quote "The body of an atheist is the coffin of a dead soul." - Adapted by Bill Gordon from a quote by Christian Nestell Bovee 6. Atheism Practical 1225 6/1992.101 Quote "For many people today the problem is not false religion, but a total lack of any religious views at all. They may say, "Yes, I believe in God," when a Gallup poll is taken -- but He has no influence on their lives. They are what someone termed "practical atheists" living life just as if God did not exist." - Billy Graham, _Approaching Hoofbeats_, p. 106. 7. Baptism 756-760 5/1992.101 Joke A lad in a Baptist family got the notion that he was going to become a preacher. So he would get up on a stump and preach to the chickens or whatever came by. He decided one day that he ought to practice the art of baptism. He looked around for suitable objects for the ceremony. Their old dog had had pups which had grown to a pretty good size. He rounded them up and took them down to the creek and began dunking them under with the appropriate words. He got down to the last one, which was the least sociable. When he picked it up, it growled and bit him, drawing some blood. "Well," he said, "I'll just sprinkle you and let you go to hell." - _The Preacher Joke Book_, edited by Loyal Jones, p. 18. 8. Baptism 756-760 5/1992.101 Joke There was this sinner who would get religion every time they had a revival meeting, and then he would backslide until the next revival. After about six times at the baptizing hole, the preacher put him under, raised him up, and said, "You've been baptized so much that the fish know you by your first name." - Russell Hensley - _The Preacher Joke Book_, edited by Loyal Jones, p. 31. 9. Baptism 756-760 5/1992.101 Joke We were fixing to have summer camp in out church, and we were encouraging the kids to fill out cards. We had a questionnaire on the card and had them scattered about the building. At the end of the Church service, a lady responded during the invitation, she came and sat down on the front bench. She picked a card, started to filling it out. We have the cards for new members there. I went over to talk to her, asked her how we could help her. She said, "Well, I want to be baptized." I said, "Well, just put that on the card there." She said, "I have, but I don't understand this next question." I looked at the card, and it said, "Can you swim?" - Rev.

Bible Absolutely Trustworthy 430 5/1992.101 Joke A preacher, ending his sermon, announced that he would preach on Noah and his Ark on the following Sunday and gave the scriptural reference for the congregation to read ahead of time. A couple of mean boys noticed something interesting about the placement of the story of the Flood in the Bible. They slipped into the church and glued two pages of the pulpit Bible together. On the next Sunday, the preacher got up to read his text. "Noah took unto himself a wife." he began, "and she was" -- he turned the page to continue -- "three hundred cubits long, fifty wide and thirty high." He paused, scratched his head, turned the page back and read it silently, turned the page. Then he looked up at his congregation and said. "I've been reading this old Bible for nigh on to fifty years, but there are some things in it that are hard to believe." - Loyal Jones - _The Preacher Joke Book_, edited by Loyal Jones, p. 72. 14. Bible Furnishes a Light 419 5/1992.101 Quote "God has given us His Word, the Bible. Do you want to know God more deeply and intimately? Do you want to discover His will for your life? Then read and study the Scriptures daily." - Billy Graham, _Approaching Hoofbeats_, p. 42. 15. Bible Ignorance of, Perilous 432 5/1992.101 Joke One time in Sunday School I was giving a little quiz, and I said to a fellow, "Can you give me the geographical location of Dan and Beersheba?" He said, "You mean they are cities?" I said, "They certainly are." He replies, "Well, I thought they were husband and wife like Sodom and Gomorrah." - Rev. George Goldtrap, Madison, TN - _The Preacher Joke Book_, edited by Loyal Jones, pp. 54-5. 16. Bible Misuse Of 428 5/1992.101 Joke In North Carolina about seventy-five years ago, the women had a habit of wearing their hair in topknots. This preacher deplored the habit. As a consequence, he preached a rip-snorting sermon one Sunday on the text "TopKnot Come Down." At the conclusion of his sermon an irate woman, wearing a very pronounced topknot, told the preacher that no such text could be found in the Bible. The preacher thereupon opened the Scriptures to the seventeenth verse of the twenty-fourth chapter of Matthew and pointed to the words "Let him which is on the houseTOP NOT COME DOWN to take anything out of the house." - Sen. Sam. J. Ervin, Jr.; Morganton, NC - _The Preacher Joke Book_, edited by Loyal Jones, p. 36. 17.

Children Adoption of 1654 5/1992.101 2Th 1:10 When Jesus comes again those who have placed their faith in him will be manifested as the sons of God, heirs of God's kingdom, and rulers with Christ Jesus. When Octavian was sixteen years of age he was designated by Julius Caesar as his successor. At nineteen he was in command of an army and was away from Rome. At the hands of Brutus, Cassius, and other friends, Julius Caesar was assassinated. Octavian had not received the public adoption by Julius as his son and heir. Therefore, he had to fight his way to sovereignty of the empire. The old Roman practice of public adoption of one to become a successor and heir illustrates what will some day take place for the sons of God. They will be publicly declared God's heirs. - Harold J. Ockenga, _The Church in God_ (Westwood, NJ: Revell, 1956), pp. 256-57. 25. Christ Lordship of 715 5/1992.101 It was not easy for the Romans to hold their empire together because of the many different races, religions, and cultures that it included. The Roman emperors eventually developed a simple loyalty test for their subjects. "On certain feasts and holidays row upon row of subjects lined up to walk past the area's Roman magistrate, toss a pinch of incense into a fire in the golden bowl at his feet and mutter, 'Caesar is Lord.'" Most citizens of the Roman empire had no problems with this test of loyalty. The early Christians, however, felt that Jesus deserved all of their loyalty. They also believed that Jesus and not Caesar was their Lord! So they refused to give to Caesar a title that they believed belonged only to Christ! As a result many Christians were persecuted and killed in the early Church. - Billy Graham, _Approaching Hoofbeats_, pp. 32-33. 26. Christ Virgin Birth Of 720 5/1992.101 Quote To a twentieth-century mind the notion of a virgin birth is intrinsically and preposterously inconceivable. If a woman claims -- such claims are made from time to time -- to have become pregnant without sexual intercourse, no one believes her. for centuries millions of people never doubted that Mary had begotten Jesus without the participation of a husband or lover. Nor was such belief limited to the simple and unlettered; the most profound and most erudite minds, the greatest artists and craftsmen, found no difficulty in accepting the Virgin Birth as an incontestable fact... Are we, then, to suppose that our forebears who believed implicitly in the Virgin Birth were gullible fools, whereas we, who would no more believe in such notions than we would that the world is flat, have put aside childish things and become mature? ... It would be difficult to support such a proposition in the light of the almost inconceivable credulity of today's brain- washed public, who so readily believe absurdities in advertisements and in statistical and sociological prognostications before which an African witch-doctor would recoil in derision. - Malcolm Muggeridge, _Jesus: The Man Who Lives_, cited in Michael Hostetler, _Illustrating The Sermon_, pp. 65-66. 27. Christian Life Hypocritical 3503-3511 6/1992.101 Quote "The greatest need today is not more Christians but more true Christians." - Billy Graham, _The Secret Of Happiness_, p. 17. 28. Christianity Characteristics of 4139 5/1992.101 Patrick Henry wrote in his will: "I have now disposed of all my property to my family; there is one thing more I wish I could give them, and that is the Christian religion. If they have that, and I had not given them one shilling they would be rich; and if they had not this, and I had given them all this world, they would be poor." - Cited in Knights Illustrations, p. 211. 29. Church Denominations 734 5/1992.101 Joke A bunch of loafers were sitting around a country store discussing the selection of a new pope, which was then in process. One old fellow listened for a while and then said, "Well, I think the Catholics have had it long enough. I hope a Baptist gets it this time." - Wilma Dykeman, Newport, TN - _The Preacher Joke Book_, edited by Loyal Jones, p. 32. 30. Church Family of God 739-741 5/1992.101 Love - the visitors in church may not be able to explain it or define it, but they know when it is there and when it is not. A man will get up, dress, pass fifty other churches, and drive all the way across town if he knows that a warm experience awaits him with love and true fellowship in the house of God. For many, the love they receive in church is the only love they will experience all week long. - John Bisagno 31. Church Strife in 734 5/1992.101 Most of the problems and troubles that occur in churches do not arise over doctrinal disputes but from little insignificant things. Someone doesn't like someone else's way of dress, or the way they comb their hair, or the way they talk, or their educational level. What a tragic manifestation of our sinfulness. Don't major on the minors, major on the majors! - Unknown 32. Church Finances 2625-2636 5/1992.101 Joke (This one gives new meaning to the term tight fisted.) The strong man at the circus was demonstrating his strength by taking a green stick and squeezing the sap out of it. When he had squeezed out several drops, he asked if anyone from the audience would like to try, and a frail-looking little lady came forward, took the stick in both hands, and squeezed. To the amazement of the strong man, a stream of sap ran down over her knuckles. "Who are you, anyhow, lady? he asked? "Oh, I'm just the treasurer at the Baptist church, she replied. - Bob Sears, Somerset Kentucky - _The Preacher Joke Book_, edited by Loyal Jones, p. 39. 33.

Conscience 824-826 4/1992.101 Quote "So far, about morals, I know only that what is moral is what you feel good after and what is immoral is what you feel bad after." - Ernest Hemingway - _Instant Quotation Dictionary_, p. 210. 35. Creator 884-886 6/1992.101 Quote "The world is not here by chance, nor is human life a biological accident. God brought it all into existence." - Billy Graham, _Approaching Hoofbeats_, p. 135. 36. Cross of Christ 891-892 6/1992.101 Rubel Shelly tells this story; Jason Tuskes was a 17-year-old high school honor student. He was close to his mother, his wheelchair-bound father, and his younger brother. Jason was an expert swimmer who loved to scuba dive. "He left home on a Tuesday morning to explore a spring and underwater cave near his home in west-central Florida. His plan was to be home in time to celebrate his mother's birthday by going out to dinner with his family that nigh. Jason became lost in the cave. Then in his panic, he apparently got wedged into a narrow passageway. When he realized he was trapped, he shed his yellow metal air tank and unsheathed his diver's knife. With the tank as a tablet and the knife as pen, he wrote one last message to his family: I LOVE YOU MOM, DAD, AND CHRISTIAN. Then he ran out of air and drowned. A dying message - something communicated in the last few seconds of life - is something we can't be indifferent toward. God's final words to us are etched on a Roman cross. They are blood red. They scream to be hear. They, too, say, "I love you. 37. Cross of Christ 891-892 6/1992.101 Quote "On almost every church in the Western world there is a cross. Why? Why has the cross become the symbol of Christianity? It is because on the cross Christ shed his blood, which has become the cure for sinners who will recognize their spiritual poverty and receive Him as their savior, Master, and Lord." - Billy Graham, _The Secret Of Happiness_, p. 30. 38. Death Foretold 947 5/1992.101 Joke One Sunday morning, I got up and was looking through the paper, reading the death notices and lo and behold was my name. I thought, "I wonder if the deacons have seen it?" I got on the phone and called one of them and said, "Have you read the morning paper yet?" He said, "Yes, sir." I said, "Did you see my name in the death notices?" He said, "Yes, I did. (Silence) Preacher, where are you calling from?" - Rev. George Goldtrap, Madison, TN - _The Preacher Joke Book_, edited by Loyal Jones, p. 54. 39. Death Of the Righteous 2160 6/1992.101 When Dr. Donald Grey Barnhouse's first wife died from cancer she was in her thirties. At the time of her death the oldest of her three children was only twelve. Dr. Barnhouse had such victory about his wife's death that he decided to preach the funeral. On the way to the service a large truck passed by their car and cast it's large shadow over them. He asked his children, "Would you rather be run over by that truck or its shadow?" His twelve year old daughter replied, "By the shadow, of course! A shadow can't hurt you." Dr. Barnhouse then turned to his children and said, "Your mother has been overrun not by death, but by the shadow of death." At her funeral service he preached on Psalm 23: "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me." - Billy Graham, _Approaching Hoofbeats_, p. 204. 40. Death Of the Wicked 2161 6/1992.101 Quote "You can commit suicide physically, but you can't "self- destruct" your soul. You are going to live forever whether you like it or not." - Billy Graham, _Approaching Hoofbeats_, p. 188. 41. Death Universal 2158 5/1992.101 Quote "Death and taxes are inevitable." - Thomas C.

Carroll, founder of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary prayed the following prayer shortly after he was converted. Write thy name on my head that I may think for thee; Write thy name on my lips that I may speak for thee; Write thy name on my feet that I may walk with and for thee; Write thy name on my ears that I may listen for thee; Write thy name on my heart that I may love thee; Write thy name on my shoulders that I may bear loads for thee; Write thy name on my eyes that I may see for thee; Write thy name all over me that I may be wholly thine -- always and everywhere. - Robert G.

Divorce Among Christians 1666 5/1992.101 Quote "Look at the condition of marriage within the context of today's Christian homes and churches. The staggeringly high divorce rate is almost the same among believers as among unbelievers." - Billy Graham, _Approaching Hoofbeats_, pp. 56-57. 45.

End of the World 1126 6/1992.101 Quote "We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon on the Mount. . . . The world has achieved brilliance without conscience. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants." - General Omar Bradley in an Armistice Day speech in 1948, quoted by Billy Graham in _Approaching Hoofbeats_, p. 128. 48. End of the World 1126 6/1992.101 Quote "The late Albert Einstein predicted that in a full-scale nuclear exchange at least a third of the population of the world would die. This is the same proportion the Bible indicates: 'A third of your people will die of the plague or perish by famine inside you; a third will fall by the sword outside your walls.' (Ezekiel 5:12)" - Billy Graham, _Approaching Hoofbeats_, p. 129. 49.

False Christs 724 5/1992.101 Billy Graham tells the following story of his encounters with false Christ: One afternoon in Paris, Ruth answered a knock on our hotel room door. Two men stood there. One explained in broken English that the other was "The messiah" who had come to see me on a "divine errand." After that pathetic encounter with another of the deranged people who have come my way, claiming to be "the messiah," Ruth remarked, "He claimed to be the Christ, but he couldn't even speak to us in our own language." There is a vast menagerie of masquerading messiahs in the world today--both men and women claiming to be THE CHRIST. Some of them are mental or emotional cripples. Others scheme and dream with ever more menacing sophistication and power. But all are counterfeit. - Billy Graham, _Approaching Hoofbeats_, p. 83. 53.

On the way home one of them, the 7 year old girl asked, "Grandmother, will you tell Mother how we acted?" The self-righteous grandmother answered, "No, but if she should ask, I can't lie." To which her little grandson said, "What do you mean you can't lie? I'm only 5 years old, and I can lie great!" - Michael Hostetler, _Illustrating The Sermon_, p. 80. 55.

Faultfinding 662 5/1992.101 When he was told in kindergarten that he had his shoes on the wrong feet, Johnny tearfully answered, "But teacher, I haven't got any other feet." That just goes to demonstrate that it is not enough to just tell people they have a problem. You need to explain its solution also. - Unknown 64. Fear Of God 3034-3036 5/1992.101 Many people say they do not believe that fear is a legitimate motive for coming to God. I disagree. I teach my children to beware of rattlesnakes, lest they be bitten and die. This is legitimate fear. In the city, children are taught to watch out on the busy streets for cars lest they run out and get killed by a passing car. This is legitimate fear. - Billy Graham, Cited by Polin in _Why Billy Graham_, p. 112. 65. Fear Of God 3034-3036 5/1992.101 Although Robert Koch proved to the world that diseases are transmitted by Microbes or germs invisible to the human eye, it was the French Chemist Louis Pasteur who discovered how to use weakened microbes to inoculate against all kinds of infectious diseases. His first successes were with anthrax and chicken cholera. Next he searched for a serum of weakened hydrophobia microbes. To do this he had to experiment with dogs driven mad by rabies. In his lab Pasteur would stick his beard within inches of the dogs fangs so he could collect froth into glass tubes. He obtained this material at great risk to his life. Finally he succeeded but he needed someone to try the serum on. It was first tested on a nine-year old boy by the name of Joseph Meister. His mother dragged little Joseph to Pasteur's laboratory. There she begged him to save her whimpering little boy who was trying to recover from the fourteen gashes inflected by a mad dog. Pasteur gave the serum to Joseph on the night of July 6, 1885. After fourteen treatments he was sent home where he lived a normal life free from rabies. One might wonder why Pasteur chose to work on finding a cure for Rabies at such a great risk to his life when there were several other diseases that he could have chosen instead. Some believe that the answer may be discovered from an event in Pasteur's childhood. He once said, " I have been haunted by the cries of the victims of a mad wolf that came down the street of our town when I was a little boy." While fear paralyzes some into inaction it motivated Pasteur to seek salvation for those attacked by rabid animals. Oh that sinners would allow their fear of death to motivate them to seek God's salvation! - Adapted from Hasting's Illustrations, pp. 15-16. 66.
