THE SIN OF LYING

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 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.

LESSONS TO BE LEARNED FROM

NOAHS ARK
One: Dont miss the boat. Two: Remember that we are all in
the same boat. Three: Plan ahead. It wasnt raining when
Noah built the Ark.
3

JUST FOR LAUGHS

Four: Stay fit. When youre 600 years old someone may ask
you to do something really big. Five: Dont listen to critics,
just get on with the job that needs to be done. Six: Build your
future on high ground. Seven: For safetys sake travel in
pairs. Eight: Speed isnt everything. The snails were on

Titanic by professionals. Eleven: No matter the storm, when
you are with God theres always a rainbow waiting.

FINDING JESUS
A drunk stumbles along a baptismal service on Sunday
afternoon down by the river. He proceeds to walk down into
the water and stand next to the preacher. The minister turns
and notices the old drunk and says, Mister, are you ready to
find Jesus?

JUST FOR LAUGHS

The drunk looks back and says, Yes, Preacher, I sure am.
The minister then dunks the fellow under the water and pulls
him right back up. Have you found Jesus? the preacher
asked.
Nooo, I didnt! said the drunk.
The preachers then dunks him under for quite a bit longer,
brings him up and says, Now, brother, have you found
Jesus?
Nooo, I have not, Reverend.
The preacher in disgust holds the man for at least 30 seconds
this time, brings him out of the water and says in a harsh
tone, My God, man, have you found Jesus yet?
The old drunk wipes his eyes and says to the preacher, Are
you sure this is where he fell in?

JUST FOR LAUGHS

THE NEW HOSPITAL WING

When a panel of doctors was asked to vote on adding a new
wing to their hospital.
The Allergists voted to scratch it and the Dermatologists
advised against rash moves.
The Gastroenterologists had a gut feeling about it, but the
Neurologists thought the administration had a lot of nerve,
and the Obstetricians stated they were all laboring under a
misconception.
The Ophthalmologists considered the idea short-sighted, the
Pathologists yelled, Over my dead body, while the
Pediatricians said, Grow up!
The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, the
surgeons decided to wash their hands off the whole thing and
the Radiologists could see right through it!

JUST FOR LAUGHS

The Physicians thought it was a bitter pill to swallow, and

the Plastic Surgeons said, This puts a whole new face on
the matter.
The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the
Urologists felt the scheme wouldnt hold water. The
Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas and the
Cardiologists didnt have the heart to say no.
In the end, the Proctologists left the decision up to the
Administration.

THE ANGRY ANTHEIST

The story is told of the Atheist who accosted a preacher. Do
you believe in eternal life? the preachers has no time to
reply. Well its a load of rubbish! shouted the Atheist. I
believe in science, evolution, survival of the fittest, and when
we die, thats it! No eternal life, no great judgment, and no

JUST FOR LAUGHS

God! the Atheist continues his assault against the preacher

repetitiously and tirelessly. Eternal life! Eternal life! Ha!
Its all pie in the sky when you die. When I die thats it,
the end, eternal life, no nothing. He continues, until he
reaches his climax, I will be buried six feet under when I
die and thats it! Nothing Caput! When I die I am utterly
convinced that that will be the end of me!
Well thank God for that replies the preacher.

THE COUPLE
A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not
saying a word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument
and neither of them wanted to concede their position. As
they passed a barnyard of mules, goats and pigs, the wife
asked sarcastically, Relatives of yours?

JUST FOR LAUGHS

Yep, the husband repliedMy in-laws.

THE POOR WOMAN

A very poor woman called a Christian radio station asking
for help. A bad, evil man who was listening to this radio
program decided to make something out of it. He got her
address, called his secretaries and ordered them to buy food
and take to the woman with the following instruction: When
the woman asks who sent the food, tell her that its from the
devil.
When they arrived, the woman was so happy and she started
putting the food inside. The devils secretaries ask her,
Dont you want to know who sent you the food? The

when God orders, even the devil obeys.

A NICKEL OR A DIME
Theres a little fellow named Junior who hangs out at the
local grocery store. The manager doesnt know what
Juniors problem is, but the boys like to tease him. The boys
say he is two bricks short of a load, or couple fries short of a
happy meal. To prove it, sometimes the boys offer Junior his
choice between a nickel and a dime. He always takes the
nickel. They say because its bigger.
One day after Junior grabbed the nickel, the store manager
got him off to one side and said, Junior, those boys are

10

JUST FOR LAUGHS

making fun of you. They think you dont know the dime is
worth more than the nickel. Are you grabbing the nickel
because its bigger, or what? Junior said, No sir, you see
if I took the dime, theyd quit doing it!

ISAIAH GOES FOR A WALK

Isaiah decided to go into the city on his own, to give himself
a break from the farm. But the hot spell proved too much for
him and he collapsed on the street.

suggestions. Give the poor man a cold drink of Belgian
chocolate, a little old lady said. Give him some air, a man
cried out. No pour cold water on him another lady shouted.
You really should give him some cold delicious chocolate
drink, the lady cried again. Several other suggestions were

you just shut up and listen to the little old lady?

SUNDAY FUNNIES
A little girl, dressed in her Sunday best, was running as fast
as she could, trying not to be late for Bible class. As she ran
she prayed. Dear Lord, please dont let me be late! As she

getting her clothes dirty and tearing her dress. She got up,
brushed herself off, and started running again. As she ran she
once again began to pray, Dear Lord, please dont let me be
late But pleased dont shove me either!

him. His boat is way off and he starts swimming like crazy.
Hes scared to death, and as he turns to see the jaws of the
great white beast open revealing its teeth in a horrific
splendor, the atheist screams, Oh God! Save me!
In an instant, time is frozen and a bright light shines down
from above. The man is motionless in the water when he
hears the voice of God say, You are an atheist. Why do you
call upon me when you do not believe in me?
Aghast with confusion and knowing he cant lie, the man
replies, Well, thats true I dont believe in you, but how
about the shark? Can you make the shark believe in you?
The Lord replies, As you wish, and the light retracted back
into the heavens and the man could feel the water begin to
move once again.

14

JUST FOR LAUGHS

As the atheist looks back he can see the jaws of the shark
start to close down on him, when all of a sudden the shark
stops and pulls back.
Shocked, the man looks at the shark as the huge beast closes
its eyes and bows its head and says, Thank you Lord for the
food for which I am about to receive

stands up, too. When the man sits down, the missionary sits.

the missionary stands up, too.
Suddenly a hush falls over the entire congregation. A few
people gasp. The missionary looks around and sees that no
one else is standing. So he sits down.

preacher. I take it you dont speak Spanish, the preacher
says.
The missionary replies, No, I dont. Is that obvious?

we can clone people and do many miraculous things, so why

JUST FOR LAUGHS

TEN THOUGHTS
1. Prayer is not a spare wheel that you pull out when in
trouble. It is a steering wheel that directs us in the right path
throughout life.
2. Do you know why a cars windshield is so large and the
rear view mirror is so small? Because our past is not as
important as our future. So, look ahead and move on.
3. Friendship is like a book. It takes few seconds to burn, but
it takes years to write.
4. All things in life are temporary. If going well, enjoy it; it
may not last forever. If going wrong, dont worry; it may not
last long either.
5. Old friends are like gold! New friends are diamonds! If
you get a diamond, dont forget the gold! Because to hold a
diamond, you always need a base of gold!

43

JUST FOR LAUGHS

6. Often when we lose hope and think this is the end, God
smiles and says, Relax, its just a bend, not the end!
7. When God solves your problems, you have faith in His
abilities; when God doesnt solve your problems, He has
faith in your abilities.
8. A blind man asked St. Anthony: Can there be anything
worse than losing eye sight?
He replied: Yes, losing your vision.
9. When you pray for others, God listens to you and blesses
them; and sometimes, when you are safe and happy,
remember that someone has prayed for you.
10. Worrying does not take away tomorrows troubles. It
takes away todays peace.

44

JUST FOR LAUGHS

EXPLAIN THAT!
A woman went to the beach with her children. Her four-year
old son ran up to her, grabbed her hand, and led her to the
shore where a dead seagull lay in the sand.
Mommy, what happened to him? the little boy asked.
He died and went to heaven, she replied.
The child thought for a moment and said, And God threw
him back down?

way, (being the donkey of a preacher). The only to make the

donkey go, was to say, Hallelujah! The only way to make
the donkey stop, was to say Amen!
The man was pleased with his purchase and immediately got
on the animal to try out the preachers instructions.
Hallelujah! shouted the man. The donkey began to trot.
Amen!

shouted

the

man.

The

donkey

stopped

immediately. This is great! said the man. With a

Hallelujah, he rode off very proud of his new purchase.
The man traveled for a long time through some mountains.
Soon he was heading towards a cliff. He could not remember
the word to make the donkey stop. Stop, said the man.
Halt! he cried. The donkey just kept going. Oh, no
Bible!... Church!.. Please Stop!! shouted the man. The
donkey just began to trot faster.
He was getting closer and closer to the cliff edge. Finally in
desperation, the man said a prayer. Please, dear Lord.

46

JUST FOR LAUGHS

Please make this donkey stop before I go off the end of this
mountain, In Jesus name, AMEN.
