The last edition of the top ten dealt with the Top Ten Reason to Attend Church even though it is Summer. Now it's time to have a look at the other side of the coin. So without further adieu, may I present the August Edition of the Heavenly Top Ten which is:
“Top Ten Reasons Not to
Come to Church in the Summer”
- The last time you wore sunglasses in church the preacher got paranoid.
- You're part of the church baseball league and last week you made a sacrificial bunt. That should count for something!
- Your kids are already getting all the moral values they need from cable TV!
- Hey, inner peace, fulfillment and salvation are probably over rated anyway!
- The last time you attended the worship service, the deacons frowned on you using the collection plate to practice your putt!
- Because you figure if God wanted us to go to church in the Summer, He would have commanded us to install BBQ pits!
- Hey, the disciples went home and fished for awhile, so why can't you?
- Even Larzarus slept in once in a while, right?
- You mean they HAVE church in the summer?
- And the number one reason not to
come to church this Summer is: - Sadly, you don't understand how important your efforts and support are for the Body of Christ in your area!
The Heavenly Top Ten is intended to be a fun look at
issues of faith and fellowship. It should not be considered a serious treatment
of
any of the topics presented.
