I know we have all seen this happen in the church

1) You lie on an application to get a job and then
get up and testify that"God made a way out of no way!"

2) You get mad at a visitor and call them out for
sitting in YOUR seat.

3) You tell the preacher to baptize you from the neck
down because you just got your hair done!

4) You take 2 hours to get ready for church, get
there late, and leave early!

5) You open your Bible and you cough from the dust
that flies out.

6) Your wedding song is 'Secret Lovers'.

7) You do not lift your hand during worship because
your acrylic nail is broken.

8) The only time you like to sing in the choir is
when they let you sing "your" song.

9) You do not tithe because you say, "the preacher might be crooked and
stealing the Lord's money, so I don't want to give it to him."

10) After you've done wrong and someone has rebuked
you, you don't repent but say, "Well the Lord knows my heart."

11) If you have ever said, "show me in the Bible
where it says, thou shall not smoke."

12) Your favorite part of the service is the
benediction.

13) You buy "hot" merchandise and testify the Lord
blessed me with a TV, jewlery, clothes etc.

14) You overheard someone say, "We got fed today at
service" and you asked if they served chicken.

15) You just got finished smoking on the outside of the church and then
try to lead a song, get choked up, holding your throat and say to the
congregation, "The devil don't want me to sing this song."

Actually, beneath the humor of it, I thought is was quite thought-provoking; and I appreciated it. There's guidance in it for all, regardless of religious affiliation.

Thanx.

trying not to laughbut being that I grew up in a southernbaptist church I got a few chuckles.

Lighten up a little bit, black people have always had a sense of humour about things it helped us to get through some hard times, no need to get all theoretical.

There is a time and place for everything and its not everytime we have to get on the defensive and act like we dont realise a joke when its a joke. Yes, its a stereotype but I think we need to ask ourselves sometimes, is it THAT serious?

Black people, we have to laugh at ourselves sometimes and its not every issue that we must make into a political cause. Lets choose our battles wisely....

Its funny, sort of true in a way. I know I have said about the show me where in the Bible it says.... But not on smoking. Its just fun really.


Authenticity means a lot to me
