The Bear

Post by Emery »

An atheist was taking a walk through the woods. What majestic trees!
What powerful rivers! What beautiful animals!" he said to himself. As he
was walking alongside the river he heard a rustling in the bushes behind
him. He turned to look. He saw a 7 foot grizzly charge towards him. He ran as
fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder and saw that the
bear was closing in on him. He looked over his shoulder again, and the
bear was even closer. He tripped and fell on the ground. He rolled over to
pick himself up but saw the bear right on top of him, reaching for him
with his left paw and raising his right paw to strike him. At that instant the
Atheist cried out: "Oh my God!..." Time stopped. The bear froze. The forest
was silent. As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came out of the sky:
"You deny my existence for all of these years, teach others I don'texist, and
even credit creation to a cosmic accident. Do you expect me to help you out
of this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer?" The atheist looked
directly into the light, "It would be hypocritical of me to suddenly ask You
to treat me as a Christian now, but perhaps could you make the BEAR a
Christian?" "Very well," said the voice. The light went out. The sounds
of the forest resumed. And then the bear dropped his right paw, brought
both paws together and bowed his head and spoke: "Lord, bless this food,
which I am about to receive from thy bounty through Christ our Lord."
Be ye kind one unto another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:32
