Matthew 25 – Parable Of The Virgins

By jeff on September 8, 2016 in Comics

You can read about the Parable of the Virgins in Matthew 25. It says that we must be prepared at all times for Christ’s return because none of us knows when it will be.

↓ Transcript

Abby: Well, it took every penny I had, but now I'm prepared!

Abby: I didn't want to be without lamp oil like the virgins in Matthew 25, so I bought 40 cases of the stuff!

Con: Abby, surely you know that the Parable of Ten Virgins is a metaphor for the fact that we all need to be SPIRITUALLY prepared for Christ's return. Not that we need to buy lamp oil!

Abby: So I spent all this money on oil when I could have spent it on new shoes?!

Con: The father said to his servants, "Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him! Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet."

Con: "Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let's have a feast and celebrate for this son of mine was dead and is alive again. He was lost and is found."

Con: And they all celebrated!

Nim: Well, except for the cow.

Getting Serious About A Diet

By jeff on July 25, 2016 in Comics

Be sure you don’t judge others. All judgment is reserved for God. You can find the Parable of the Weeds in your Bible. Just go to Matthew 13.

↓ Transcript

Nim: I've been kidding myself, but now I'm serious about my diet.

Nim: I don't want others judging me and thinking I'm just a fatso.

Con: And they shouldn't. Jesus teaches us in the Parable of the Weeds that we shouldn't judge the "Good Seed" from the "Weeds." All judgment should be left to God.

Nim: That might be helpful if I was eating seeds. But what I need is a diet food that doesn't taste like feet!
