Almost Christian

Almost Christian The old famer came out of Church one Sunday As he had done many, many times before. This Sunday was not much different After the service, he walked up to the minister and said, I know Jesus has done for me more than I could do for myself and others. But I also know most days I don’t really Love Him. Maybe on some really good days I do. So, I am at best Almost Christian. The preacher thought a moment and said, When you make up to your wife are you then only almost married. The Old framers known not to smile. Smiled Turned and walked away much happier than ever before.
