Dart Test


THIS IS A POWERFUL MESSAGE. PLEASE READ ALL OF IT.
I AM PASSING IT ON BECAUSE I AM CERTAINLY
NOT ASHAMED TO DO SO.


In light of the many jokes we send to one another for a laugh,
this is a little different: This is not intended to be a joke,
it's not funny, it's intended to get you thinking..............



A young lady named Sally, relates an experience she had in a
seminary class, given by her teacher, Dr. Smith. She says
that Dr. Smith was known for his elaborate object lessons.

One particular day, Sally walked into the
seminary and knew they were in for a fun day.

On the wall was a big target and on a nearby table were
many darts. Dr. Smith told the students to draw a picture
of someone that they disliked or someone who had made them
angry, and he would allow them to throw darts
at the person's picture.



Sally's friend drew a picture of who had stolen her boyfriend.
Another friend drew a picture of his little brother. Sally drew
a picture of a former friend, putting a great deal of detail
into her drawing, even drawing pimples on the face. Sally was pleased with the overall effect she had achieved.

The class lined up and began throwing darts. Some of
the students threw their darts with such force that
their targets were ripping apart. Sally looked
forward to her turn, and was filled with disappointment when
Dr. Smith, because of time limits, asked the students to
return to their seats. As Sally sat thinking about how angry
she was because she didn't have a chance to throw any
darts at her target. Dr. Smith began removing
the target from the wall.



Underneath the target was a picture of Jesus.
A hush fell over the room as each student viewed the mangled
picture of Jesus; holes and jagged marks covered
His face and His eyes were pierced.

Dr. Smith said only these words... "In as much as ye have
done it unto the least of these my brethren, ye have
done it unto Me." Matthew 25:40.

No other words were necessary; the tears filled eyes
of the students focused only on the picture of Christ.

This is an easy test; you score 100 or zero.
It's your choice.

If you aren't ashamed to do this,
please follow the directions.

Jesus said, "If you are ashamed of me,
I will be ashamed of you, before My Father."

Not ashamed ... pass this on.

Ashamed ... delete it.


Isn't it funny how simple it is for people to trash
God and then wonder why the world's going to hell.

Isn't it funny how we believe what the newspapers say,
but question what the Bible says.

Isn't it funny how everyone wants to go to heaven provided
they do not have to believe, think, say, or do
anything the Bible says. Or is it scary?

Isn't it funny how someone can say "I believe in God" but
still follow Satan (who, by the way, also "believes" in God ).

Isn't it funny how you can send a thousand jokes through
e-mail and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending
messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing.

Isn't it funny how the lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene pass freely
through cyberspace, but the public discussion
of Jesus is suppressed in the school and workplace.

Isn't it funny how someone can be so fired up for Christ
on Sunday, but be an invisible Christian the rest of the week.

Are you laughing?



Isn't it funny how when you go to forward this message,
you will not send it to many on your address list because you're
not sure what they believe, or what they will think
of you for sending it to them.

Isn't it funny how I can be more worried about
what other people think of me than what God thinks of me.

Will YOU pass this on? ... I did
