“A Saint of a Brother”
Welcome back to Jokie Dokie!
This episode is called, A Saint of a Brother.
There were two evil brothers.
They were rich, and used their money
to keep their evil ways away from the public eye.
They even attended the same
church, and looked to be perfect Christians.
Then their pastor retired and a new one was hired.
Not only could
he see right through the brothers’ deception, but he also spoke well
and true which impressed the congregation, so the church started to swell in numbers.
A fund-raising
campaign was started to build a new assembly.
All of a sudden, one of the evil brothers died.
The remaining brother
sought out the new pastor the day before the funeral and handed him
a check for the amount needed to finish paying for the new building.
“I have only one condition” he said.
“At his funeral, you must say
my brother was a saint.”
The pastor gave his word, and deposited
the check.
The next day at the funeral the pastor did not hold back.
“He was
an evil man” he said.
“He cheated on his wife and abused his family.”
After speaking in this fashion for a small time, he concluded with,
“But compared to his brother, he was a saint.”
