Contributed by Shawn Rose on Dec 27, 2008 (message contributor)
1 Corinthians 15:51, 52 “Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”
A farmer takes his family to the big city for the first time, drops his wife off at a department store, and takes his son to a bank, the tallest building in the city. There, he sees a set of doors open, watches a large elderly woman get in, and notices that when the numbers over the door count from one to 20 and back to one, a beautiful young woman gets out. The farmer looks at his son and exclaims, “Son wait here, I’m going to go get your mother.”
