    Thanks for posting them. They made me smile. They are hilarious. However, beware. A post will come along wondering if these one liners came along with regeneration planned before the foundation of the world, or it the authors of these quips thought them up of there own free will.

    That crossed my mind ....

    ... so I crossed my fingers, and hoped some moderator will not come along and more this because it doesn't merit being on General Baptist Discussions! I think any time you can pull another into a post that brings a smile to their face and lifts their heart a bit among the hectic pace this life brings, then it is a form of spiritual discussion, lifting the soul. :smilewinkgrin:

    There have been many, MANY times I've just blurted out, "God, thank you for humor!"
    My family swears that I will die from an artery bursting in my head from laughing so hard, and my kids used to make fun of the way my head turned red from some comment from the pulpit.
    I have to believe that God really has a tremendous sense of humor.:thumbs:
