THANKSGIVING:
A Wonderful Day to Tell Injuns About Jesus!
Most of Landover's church records
dating back to the early 1600's are too gruesome to share
with the general public. Church historian, Dora
Jean Hazlett, is reserved to spending countless days
sifting tirelessly through boxes of shrunken heads,
tomahawks, and tiny little baby Injun bones in the storage
basement of the Landover Baptist American Christian History
Museum. She finds old newspapers and family letters that
recount the terrible atrocities suffered upon the early
members of our congregation by the red-skinned race.
"What becomes perfectly clear," says Dora Jean,
"is that the secular media's idea of a Thanksgiving,
with Injuns and Pilgrims sitting around a table smiling, is
just a made up lie by politically correct liberals." Mrs.
Hazlett relates that the actual "Thanksgiving"
was more like a quick prayer to Jesus for a painless death
by a few Pilgrims before their heads were hacked off by
savages and boiled in a pot for cannibal stew. "Our
records indicate that the savagery didn't quell until Pastor
Deacon Fred's great-great-great-great-great-great Pilgrim
grandfather showed the Injuns that there were other things
to eat besides human flesh, like corn. In these modern times, Americans are
left to celebrate a cheap mockery of the true Thanksgiving.
Landover Pastor, Deacon Fred, is quick to remind his
parishioners how important it is to keep Injuns sedated and
caged up on reservations. "Today's Injun makes his home
not in a tee-pee, but a trailer!" says Pastor. "He
drinks booze, lives off our tax money, and dreams of owning
a casino. And although it might sound controversial, I
believe it's best just to keep it that way. Because we
all know what happens when you take the bone out of a
dog's mouth! They start to growl, and cause trouble,"
he said. "The only way to get them flesh eaters to turn
their lives around for good is to give them a taste of the
crisp, salty, Sunday morning fresh body of Christ! But,
speaking from personal experience, it's so dangerous sharing
Jesus with a devil loving Injun, I believe it is better left
to the experts. There are only a few circumstances that I
can think of where it would be advisable for a True
Christian® layperson who is not a trained Injun missionary
to attempt at sharing Jesus with such a depraved race."
Pastor Deacon Fred went on to relate what he called,
"Three Witnessing Tips for Lay People Who Manage to Get
Close Enough to an Injun Without Being Vomited On." He
asked that we place those tips online for the edification
and education of our internet readers. Witness by Example Jesus taught us to live by example,
and it works. When folks see something you've got, that they
haven't, they want to know how to get it. The best method
for hands off witnessing is to show people that your life is
better than theirs. When Injuns see that they
are not invited to attend our Thanksgiving festivities,
and they see all of the wonderful cars, expensive clothes,
extravagant dining, and the splendid edifice of Landover
Baptist Church, towering in the background, you can rest
assured that the only reason they are protesting is because
they are jealous! Jealous of the Lord Jesus shining through
our lives as a testimony to the great rewards that await the
righteous! We've had a number of testimonies from Landover
Baptist Prison guards who have led many a jailed Injun to
Christ in the midnight hour for a cold piece of bread and a
glass of water. Target the Children Persuading little Injun children to
accept Jesus is an easy chore, if you can get separate them
from their parents long enough to sit through this year's
Thanksgiving play. I guarantee that after seeing this
production, the little cannibals will either run away from
home, or be so terrified of their red-skinned relatives,
they'll beg on their hands and knees to be admitted to the
Landover Baptist Orphanage for the Unsaved. This year, our
Junior High School youth group is going to depict the
Freehold Iowa Injun scalping massacre and cannibal dinner
using actual human body parts donated from the Landover
Morgue. Don't let your Christian children miss this
wonderful play, and bring along an Injun child, even if you
have to pick one out of a shopping cart at your local
Wal-Mart! Use the Booze A drunk Injun is a common enough
thing, but did you know that while an Injun is intoxicated
it might well be the safest time to approach one? An Injun
is happiest and most content while they are in a drunken
stupor. They are approachable, and yes, even friendly! Why
not take this time to share the good news of Jesus Christ?
You'd be a fool not to take advantage of the situation! And
if you don't, when Jesus rolls back the film of your life on
Judgment Day, you can bet that He'll be asking you,
"What about this time here, when you had an opportunity
to tell this poor drunk savage about Me?" Don't pass on
an opportunity like that if it comes your way, or Jesus
might very well pass you up when He starts picking people He
wants to live with Him in Heaven.
