HILARIOUS JOKES AND HUMOR ARCHIVES
A boy was sitting on a park bench with one hand resting on
an open Bible. He was loudly exclaiming his praise to God.
"Hallelujah! Hallelujah! God is great!" he yelled without
worrying whether anyone heard him or not.
Shortly after, a man came along who had recently completed
some studies at a local university. Feeling himself very
enlightened in the ways of truth and very eager to show this
enlightenment, he asked the boy about the source of his joy.
"Hey" asked the boy in return with a bright laugh, "Don't
you have any idea what God is able to do? I just read that
God opened up the waves of the Red Sea and led the whole
nation of Israel right through the middle."
The enlightened man laughed lightly, sat down next to the
boy and began to try to open his eyes to the "realities" of
the miracles of the Bible.
"That can all be very easily explained. Modern scholarship
has shown that the Red Sea in that area was only deep at
that time. It was no problem for the Israelites to wade
across."
The boy was stumped. His eyes wandered from the man back to
the Bible laying open in his lap.
The man, content that he had enlightened a poor, naive young
person to the finer points of scientific insight, turned to
go. Scarcely had he taken two steps when the boy began to
rejoice and praise God louder than ever before.
The man returned to ask the reason for this resumed
jubilation.
"Wow!" exclaimed the boy happily, "God is greater than I
thought! Not only did He lead the whole nation of Israel
through the Red Sea, He topped it off by drowning the whole
Egyptian army in 10-inches of water!"
Sing unto the LORD, all the earth; shew forth from day to
day his salvation. Declare his glory among the heathen; his
marvellous works among all nations.
For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also is
to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the people
are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.
Glory and honour are in his presence; strength and gladness
are in his place. Give unto the LORD, ye kindreds of the
people, give unto the LORD glory and strength. Give unto the
LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and
come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be
stable, that it be not moved. Let the heavens be glad, and
let the earth rejoice: and let men say among the nations,
The LORD reigneth.
Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof: let the fields
rejoice, and all that is therein. Then shall the trees of
the wood sing out at the presence of the LORD, because he
cometh to judge the earth.
O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy
endureth for ever. -1 Chronicles 16:23
