05/18/09 Grif.Net – Sermon on Sin

I heard that a minister told his congregation, “Next week I plan to preach
about a special sin. To help you understand my sermon, I want you all to
read Mark 17.”

The following Sunday, as he prepared to deliver his sermon, the minister
asked for a show of hands. He wanted to know how many had read Mark 17 as he
requested. Nearly every hand went up.

The minister smiled and said, “Mark has only 16 chapters. I will now proceed
with my sermon – ‘The Sin of Lying’.”
