THE ARGUMENT

Jesus and Satan were having an ongoing argument about

who managed to  get the  most out of his computer.

This had been going on for days and God was tired of

hearing all of the bickering.  God said, "Cool it.  I am

going to set up a test that will run two hours and I will

judge who does the better job."

So down they sat at the keyboards and typed away.

They did spreadsheets.

They wrote reports.

They sent faxes.

They sent out e-mail.

They sent out e-mail with attachments.

They downloaded.

They did some genealogy reports.

They made cards.

They did every known job.

But just a few minutes before the two hours were up a

lightening flashed across the sky.  The thunder rolled

and the rains came down hard.  And of course the

electricity went off.  Satan was upset.  He fumed and

fussed and he ranted and raved.  All to no avail.  The

electricity stayed off.  But after a bit the rains stopped

and the electricity came back on.  Satan screamed,

"I lost it all when the power went off.  What  am I

going to do?  What happened to Jesus' work?"

Jesus just sat and smiled.

Again Satan asked about the work that Jesus had done.

As Jesus turned  his computer back on the screen glowed

and when he pushed "print ," it was all there.

"How did he do it?" Satan asked.

God smiled and said, "Jesus Saves."
