Christian One liners. I thought some of them were pretty cute.
Don't let your worries get the best of you; Remember, Moses started out as a basket case.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Some people are kind, polite, and sweet-spirited Until you try to sit in their pews.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Many folks want to serve God, But only as advisers.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* It is easier to preach ten sermons Than it is to live one.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* The good Lord didn't create anything without a purpose, But mosquitoes come close.
*+*+*+*+*++*+*+*+* When you get to your wit's end, You'll find God lives there.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* People are funny; they want the front of the bus, Middle of the road, And back of the church.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Opportunity may knock once, But temptation bangs on the front door forever.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Quit griping about your church; If it was perfect, you couldn't belong.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* If a church wants a better pastor, It only needs to pray for the one it has.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* We're called to be witnesses, not lawyers or Judges.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* God Himself doesn't propose to judge a man until he is dead. So why should you?
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Some minds are like concrete Thoroughly mixed up and permanently set.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Peace starts with a smile.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* I don't know why some people change churches; What difference does it make which one you stay home from?
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Be ye fishers of men. You catch 'em - He'll clean 'em.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Stop, Drop, and Roll won't work in heck.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*
Coincidence is when God chooses to remain anonymous.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Don't put a question mark where God put a period.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Don't wait for 6 strong men to take you to church.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Forbidden fruits create many jams.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* God grades on the cross, not the curve.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* God loves everyone, But probably prefers 'fruits of the spirit' over 'religious nuts!'
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage..
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* He who angers you, controls you!
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* If God is your Co-pilot, swap seats!
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* Prayer: Don't give God instructions, just report for duty!
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* The task ahead of us is never as great as the Power behind us.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* The Will of God never takes you to where the Grace of God will not protect you.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* We don't change the message, The message changes us.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* You can tell how big a person is By what it takes to discourage him/her.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* The best mathematical equation I have ever seen: 1 cross + 3 nails = 4 given.
*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* If this blessed you in a profound way today, Share it with a few friends to bless them! I bet someone else will LOVE it too. There is no greater treasure than a good friend!
Have a wonderful day!!!!!.

There's an intriguing thread on this forum titled "Dating of a Bluthner Grand". Has anyone in this thread tried that? What would you use for an opening line? How would you dress? What movie would you take a Bluthner Grand too? I confess, I'm at a loss. Funny you should say that David, I HONESTLY read that title and thought the "same" thing!!! No lie. It made me laugh when I read it. Anyways, we are just having to RAM thru winter. And I think "more" cars need "fur"!

My Dear Mr. Jenson,
In cases where one is unsure of proper dress for an occasion, it is always best to surpass expectations for a "Grand" event. Formality is indicated, and a gentleman will arrive dressed in white tie and tails. Fräulein Bluthner has clearly stated her expectations for the grand occasion and a dinner jacket with black tie would be improper.
Also, your carriage horses must be trained to vigorously whinny whenever the lady's name is spoken. Your footman, Igor, will attend to that detail.
Remember, it is proper to always put your candle back.

The heck with that Marty. Pull up your farmer blue jeans, snap on the thingy dingy's that flip over your shoulders, snap them up, put on your farmer "Mr. Green Jeans hat" then put on the boots that you just wore cleaning up poo poo and take THAT to the dealership with smelly cash in your pocket. You'll be looked at like a drifter but, little do they know you have cash to pay for it. hehehe

My Dear Herr Groot,
I always wear barn boots when negotiating with Fräulein Bluthner. Cash transactions are always appropriate in certain circumstances.

It made me laugh when I read it. I avoided posting anything in the Bluthner thread which I think shows sterling character. I've sidetracked enough serious threads as it is. In this, I finally showed some class. That thread just begged to be busted, but I resisted. I'm so proud of myself!!! Like you, I laughed, and expected the thread to take an undignified turn. I appreciate all the dating advice I've received subsequently, but some of it has me scratching my head a bit. Apparently it's a delicate, confusing subject.

That's even more weird than dating a Bluthner. But, I would have liked to have been invited to that party!

And HOW!!! After 18 months on FaceBook I got off and stayed off. The whole thing made me very uneasy. There are enough other information sources without hanging it all out there on FB for the whole prying world. The clip is an ad for internet banking, as in: don't put all your secrets on the internet, give them to US instead!

Remember, it is proper to always put your candle back. I'm not sure what you're referring to here, Marty, but I do know one thing: it is even more proper to never to split your infinitive.

Ah yes, Mark -
Obviously, you have never seen "Young Frankenstein." Without so doing, you would miss the humor of the posting and the use of a split infinitive.
It is so much easier to split an infinitive that to split one's sides.
