A minister told his congregation, “Next week I plan to preach about the sin of lying. 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. Every hand went up.
The minister smiled and said, “Mark has only sixteen chapters. I will now proceed with my sermon on the sin of lying.”
PRAISE THE LORD
Though outwardly this message makes us laugh deep inside it has very big lesson for all of us.
Yes, we all tend to lie in most of the time we have not realizing what we are doing and what can happen because of it.
