SATAN'S BEATITUDES

IF THE DEVIL WERE TO WRITE HIS BEATITUDES, THEY WOULD PROBABLY GO SOMETHING LIKE THIS:

1.  Blessed are those who are too tired, too busy, too distracted to spend an hour once a week with their fellow Christians -- they are my best workers.

2.  Blessed are those Christians who wait to be asked and expect to be thanked -- I can use them.

3.  Blessed are the touchy who stop going to church -- they are my missionaries.

4.  Blessed are the trouble makers -- they shall be called my children.

5.  Blessed are the complainers -- I'm all ears to them.

6.  Blessed are those who are bored with the minister's mannerisms and mistakes -- for they get nothing out of his sermons

7.  Blessed is the church member who expects to be invited to his own church -- for he is a part of the problem instead of the solution.

8.  Blessed are those who gossip -- for they shall cause strife and divisions that please me.

9.  Blessed are those who are easily offended -- for they will soon get angry and quit.

10.  Blessed are those who do not give their offering to carry on God's work -- for they are my helpers.

11.  Blessed is he who professes to love God but hates his brother and sister --for he shall be with me forever.

12.  Blessed are you who, when you read this think it is about other people and not yourself -- I've got you too!
