Toxic Look-Alikes
October 25, 2010

Our yard makes poison ivy happy. I learned this the hard way. Even though I was being careful, I came in contact with the plant and ended up with a nasty, itchy rash.

Poison ivy looks like many harmless plants, and it keeps company with some beautiful ones. One gardener couldn’t figure out why she got poison ivy whenever she pruned her roses. She later discovered that a poison ivy vine was taking advantage of the tender loving care she gave to her rosebush.

Some people are like toxic plants. They look harmless, and they blend in with people who, like roses, are fragrant and beautiful.

Simon the sorcerer fit this description. He followed Philip and was baptized, but then he asked to buy the ability to lay hands on people so they could receive the Holy Spirit. Peter was appalled at his request and urged him to repent (Acts 8:22).

Sometimes people use the favorable environment of a healthy church as a network for selfish purposes. Like poison ivy among roses, they cause much misery. Like Simon, anyone who does this needs to repent, and everyone else needs to avoid contact with such a person. Spiritual look-alikes appear good but their “fruit” is toxic.

A Prayer:
Help me, Lord, to be discerning and not let others
lead me astray with their falsehood. May the fruit
of my life be an example of a follower of Christ. Amen.

A false life belies a true faith.

Read: Acts 8:9-23

Your heart is not right in the sight of God. Repent therefore of this your wickedness. —Acts 8:21-22
Bible in a year:
Jeremiah 6-8; 1 Timothy 5

In. Now for a LOL

Recently a large law firm hired several cannibals to increase their diversity.

“You are part of our team now,” said the human resources rep during the welcoming briefing. “You get all the usual benefits and you can go to the cafeteria to eat, but please do NOT eat any Employees.”

The cannibals promised they would not.

Four weeks later their boss said, “You’re all working very hard and I’m satisfied with your work. We have noticed a marked increase in the whole company’s performance. However, one of our paralegals has disappeared.

Do any of you know what happened to her?”

The cannibals all shook their heads, “No.”

After the boss had left, the leader of the cannibals said to the others, “Which one of you idiots ate the paralegal?” A hand rose Hesitantly.

“You fool” the leader continued. “For four weeks we’ve been eating attorneys and no one noticed anything. But NOOOOOO, you Had to go and eat someone who actually does something!”

But, you stay right where you are. Cause...............I'll be bock!

The Canteen is ALWAYS

Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM

Something to think about: "Al Shabab ... fighting to establish a strict Muslim state in Somalia" - could this happen in the USofA?
