Don't wait for the hearse to take you to church.
It's hard to stumble
when you're
down on your knees.
What part of "Thou Shalt Not"
don't you understand?
A clear conscience makes a soft
pillow.
The wages of sin is death.
Repent before
payday.
Never give the devil a ride.
He will always want to
drive.
Forbidden fruit creates many jams.
Christians, keep the
faith...but not from others!
Satan subtracts and divides.
God adds
and multiplies.
To belittle is to be little.
Don't let the
littleness in others
bring out the littleness in you.
God answers
knee-mail.
Try Jesus. If you don't like Him,
the devil will always
take you back.
Jokes - For the Weekend
1) NUDITY
I was driving with my three young children one warm summer evening when a woman in the convertible ahead of us stood up and waved. She was stark naked! As I was reeling from the shock, I heard my 5-year-old shout from the back seat, 'Mom, that lady isn't wearing a seat belt!'

Lenten Penance on Sundays too?
Is it true that during lent, on sundays, you may do/eat the thing that you gave up?
For example, if I gave up chocolate for lent, could I eat it on Sundays during lent? I have heard from more than one person that the things that you give up you can do on Sundays in lent?
Yes, you can eat the chocolate on Sundays...that's why Lent starts on a Wednesday -- so we can deduct Sundays because Sundays are never Lent. Jesus rose from the dead on the first day of the week...from there all Sundays are thus blessed and are called the Lord's Day...they are mini-Easters. On the other hand, because Jesus died on a Friday, this is why we fast on a Friday -- and by the way, the Catholic teaching is that we should make some act of penance every Friday year round -- not just during Lent. It's not really enforced any more -- but it hasn't been dropped, either. In fact we are supposed to also fast on Wednesdays (the day Judas went to the chief priests and offered to betray Jesus to them). In Jesus' day, the Jews fasted on Mondays and Thursdays...the two days outside of Shabbat that the Torah was read from. This is why Jesus had said, "When you fast..." (see MT 6:16) -- not "If you'd like to fast..." It was a given that fasting was done from ancient days.
Check out the fasting requirements on fasting in the Orthodox Church...they are far more strict that the Catholic Church: note that they still fast every Wednesday and Friday year round. http://home.wavecable.com/~photios/fasti…

While we Catholics fast for < 10 days/year, the Coptic Orthodox church fasts for more than 200 days per year!!!!!

Cartoons
Tiago Hoisel is a mad scientist reanimating cartoon characters into living beings, or perhaps he is capturing the souls of living beings and injecting them into cartoon molds? Either way he is certainly mad! Tiago was born in 1984 and is based in Sao Paulo, Brazil.His works are known throughout the country.
