Muslims do not recognize Jews as God&#8217;s Chosen People. <\/p>\n<p>\t2. Jews do not recognize Jesus as the Messiah. <\/p>\n<p>\t3. Protestants do not recognize the Pope as the leader of the Christian world. <\/p>\n<p>\t4. Baptists do not recognize each other at the liquor store.<\/p>\n<p>\tGOOD SAMARITAN  <\/p>\n<p>\tA Sunday school teacher was telling her class the story of the Good Samaritan.<br \/>\n\tShe asked the class, &quot;If you saw a person lying on the roadside, all wounded and bleeding, what would you do?&quot; <\/p>\n<p>\tA thoughtful little girl broke the hushed silence, &quot;I think I&#8217;d throw up.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\tDID NOAH FISH?  <\/p>\n<p>\tA Sunday school teacher asked, &quot;Johnny, do you think Noah did a lot of fishing when he was on the Ark ?&quot; <\/p>\n<p>\t&quot;No,&quot; replied Johnny. &quot;How could he, with just two worms.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\tTHE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD<\/p>\n<p>\tA Sunday School teacher decided to have her young class memorize one of the most quoted passages in the Bible &#8211; Psalm 23.<br \/>\n\tShe gave the youngsters a month to learn the chapter.<br \/>\n\tLittle Rick was excited about the task &#8211; but he just couldn&#8217;t remember the Psalm. After much practice, he could barely get past the first line. <\/p>\n<p>\tOn the day that the kids were scheduled to recite Psalm 23 in front of the congregation, Ricky was so nervous.<br \/>\n\tWhen it was his turn, he stepped up to the microphone and said proudly, &quot;The Lord is my Shepherd, and that&#8217;s all I need to know.&quot; <\/p>\n<p>\n\tUNANSWERED PRAYER  <\/p>\n<p>\tThe preacher&#8217;s 5 year-old daughter noticed that her father always paused and bowed his head for a moment before starting his sermon. One day, she asked him why.<\/p>\n<p>\t&quot;Well, Honey,&quot; he began, proud that his daughter was so observant of his messages. &quot;I&#8217;m asking the Lord to help me preach a good sermon.&quot; <\/p>\n<p>\t&quot;How come He doesn&#8217;t answer it?&quot; she asked. <\/p>\n<p>\n\tBEING THANKFUL<\/p>\n<p>\tA Rabbi said to a precocious six-year-old boy, &quot;So your mother says your prayers for you each night? That&#8217;s very commendable. What does she say?&quot; <\/p>\n<p>\tThe little boy replied, &quot;Thank God he&#8217;s in bed!&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\tALL MEN \/ ALL GIRLS<\/p>\n<p>\tWhen my daughter, Kelli, said her bedtime prayers, she would bless every family member, every friend, and every animal (current and past).<br \/>\n\tFor several weeks, after we had finished the nightly prayer, Kelli would say, &quot;And all girls.&quot; <\/p>\n<p>\tThis soon became part of her nightly routine, to include this closing. My curiosity got the best of me and I asked her, &quot;Kelli, why do you always add the part about all girls?&quot;<br \/>\n\tHer response, &quot;Because everybody always finishes their prayers by saying &#8216;All Men&#8217;!&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\n\tSAY A PRAYER  <\/p>\n<p>\tLittle Johnny and his family were having Sunday dinner at his Grandmother&#8217;s house. Everyone was seated around the table as the food was being served.<br \/>\n\tWhen Little Johnny received his plate, he started eating right away. &quot;Johnny! Please wait until we say our prayer.&quot; said his mother. <\/p>\n<p>\t&quot;I don&#8217;t need to,&quot; the boy replied.<br \/>\n\t&quot;Of course, you do&quot; his mother insisted. &quot;We always say a prayer before eating at our house.&quot; <\/p>\n<p>\t&quot;That&#8217;s at our house.&quot; Johnny explained. &quot;But this is Grandma&#8217;s house and she knows how to cook.&quot;<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>Replies:<\/h3>\n<p>No replies were posted for this topic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During these serious and troubled times, people of all faiths should remember these four great religious truths: 1.
