God’s PIN Number
Columbia, SC
Two men were engaged in a conversation about church and religion on the late afternoon of Oct. 6 when one of them asserted that the church was all about the “Benjamins†(money) and that he was hurt by the church because of this greedy little fact. He then asked the other man to prove that he was not about money and give him his ATM card and PIN. The victim complied (perhaps believing this to be a test of God). The man told the victim that he would not use the card, but return the next day (Sunday) and attend church with him. Psyche! The victim reported that $400 was withdrawn from his account at a Bi-Lo at 3900 North Main St. (right next door) at about 6 p.m. Lesson learned: God will never test you by asking you for your ATM card.

Ah the poor sinner tested himself and was found wanting yet again… He really TRIED not to use that card and PIN, but the devil’s temptation got the best of him. But boy, I’ll bet that $400 worth of free crack was worth it! NOT!

That’s two of the 10 commandments broken. I hope the thief went to church on Sunday. He could use the repentence!
Victum was pretty stupid though. If you must to go along with something like that you could at least lie about the PIN number. Who’s to know anyway? If the guy is honest, he won’t use the card and will be none the wiser. If he is dishonest, than his plan is foiled.

A disciple he was not! A potential evangelist he may soon be!
