Subject : The only Bible some people live.
emailed from: Nelda
His name is Bill. He has wild hair, wears a T-shirt
with holes in it, jeans, and no shoes. This was literally
his wardrobe for his entire four years of college. He
is brilliant, kind of esoteric and very, very bright.
He became a Christian while attending college. Across
the street from the campus is a well-dressed, very conservative
church. They want to develop a ministry to the students,
but are not sure how to go about it. One day Bill decides
to go there. He walks in with no shoes, wearing jeans,
his T-shirt, and wild hair. The service has already
started so Bill starts down the aisle looking for a
seat. The church is completely packed and he can't find
a seat. By now, people are really looking a bit uncomfortable,
but no one says anything. Bill gets closer and closer
and closer to the pulpit, and when he realizes there
are no seats, he just squats down right on the carpet.
Although perfectly acceptable behavior at a college
fellowship, trust me, this had never happened in this
church before! By now the people are really uptight,
and the tension in the air is thick. About this time,
the minister realizes that from way at the back of the
church, a deacon is slowly making his way toward Bill.
Now the deacon is in his eighties, has silver-gray hair,
and a three-piece suit. A godly man, very elegant, very
dignified, very courtly. He walks with a cane and, as
he starts walking toward this boy,everyone is saying
to themselves that you can't blame him for what he's
going to do. How can you expect a man of his age and
of his background to understand some college kid on
the floor? It takes a long time for the man to reach
the boy. The church is utterly silent except for the
clicking of the man's cane. All eyes are focused on
him. You can't even hear anyone breathing. The minister
can't even preach the sermon until the deacon does what
he has to do. And now they see this elderly man drop
his cane on the floor. With great difficulty, he lowers
himself and sits down next to Bill and worships with
him so he won't be alone. Everyone chokes up with emotion.
When the minister gains control, he says, What I'm about
to preach, you will never remember. What you have just
seen, you will never forget." "Be careful
how you live. You may be the only Bible some people
will ever read". |
