It Doesn’t Get Much Clearer Than This
June 26th, 2010
Like most of you, I get my fair share of emails jokes and links that circulate around the net. Got one today that I actually hadn’t seen before and enjoyed it to the point that I was going to forward it, then I decided to share it with even more folks this way. Though it’s in the humor category, it also shares a reminder that sometimes we Christians over complicate things and make things way more difficult than they need to be. It can’t get much clearer than this
Enjoy!
P.S. I have no clue if the statement about this being on a wall in a church is true but I left the email intact for now with respect to the originator just in case.
The Ten Commandments
Some people have trouble with all those ’shall’s’ and ’shall not’s’ in the Ten Commandments. Folks just aren’t used to talking in those terms. So, in middle Tennessee they translated the ‘King James’ into ‘ Jackson County ‘ language. No joke…….this is posted on the wall at Cross Trails Church in Gainesboro , TN.
