Interesting message from my Uncle
Today's Bible Lesson
In today’s world with President Trump getting hit daily, a little Bible Lesson might be appropriate.
Remember what Jesus said: 'Goats on the left, sheep on the right' (Matthew 25:33).

Jesus also told Peter that if he wanted to catch fish do it from the right side of the boat. He did, and filled the boat with fish.

John 21:6 (NIV) ... He said, "Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some." When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish."

Origin of Left & Right..I have often wondered why it is that Conservatives are called the "right" and Liberals are called the "left".
By chance I stumbled upon this verse in the Bible: Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV) - "The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left."Thus sayeth the Lord. Amen!
It surely can't get any simpler than that.

Spelling Lesson: The last four letters in American......... I Can
The last four letters in Republican........ I Can
The last four letters in Democrats....... Rats
End of lesson! ..Test to follow on November 6, 2018. Remember, November 2018 is to be set aside as rodent removal month.

Please share this Bible Lesson with all your friends and email buddies to help achieve that goal. Never grow a wishbone where a backbone ought to be.

This was sent to me by my Uncle who is a very good man and a good Christian. Because he tithes every Sunday he had been audited by the IRS because they don't believe anyone actually gives 10% of their income to the church. He has always won the audits.

I also tithe 10% to the church, and have documentation to prove it. However, I've never been audited (knock wood). I think it's because I always wait to file my return until 15 Oct and the audit schedule was filled by those who filed earlier.

The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People again must learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. ~ Cicero 55 BC

Did your message come in the form of a chain email?

The message was forwarded to me by my Uncle and it was no doubt sent to him by his buds. They are all a bunch of retired pipeliners who have built pipelines all over this nation and the world. A bunch of real stand-up guys.

When I was in college and working my way through, I worked with them and my Father. Usually on the 36" gas lines and we worked 7 days per week, 10 hours a day. That will put hair on you chest.

Sorry. I did mean 15 October, not August. (Original post corrected)
