The Minister and His Children's Sermon






























The Lesson of the Four Worms

A minister decided that a visual demonstration would add emphasis to his Children's Sermon.

Four worms were placed in four separate jars.

The first worm was placed into a jar of alcohol.
The second worm was placed into a jar with cigarette smoke.
The third worm was placed into a jar with chocolate syrup.
The fourth worm was placed into a jar with good soil.

At the conclusion of his Children's Sermon, the minister pronounced the following results:


The worm in the alcohol was
DEAD.


The worm in the cigarette smoke was
DEAD.



The worm in the chocolate syrup was
DEAD.



The worm in the good soil was
ALIVE.


The minister asked the children and the congregation,
"What can we learn from this lesson?

Maxine was sitting in the back.  She quickly raised her hand and said,  "As long as you drink, smoke and eat chocolate, you won't have worms!"

That pretty much ended the service.
