Sermon Illustrations

A minister decided that a visual demonstration would add emphasis to his Sunday sermon. Four worms were placed into four separate jars:

The first worm was put into a container of alcohol.

The second worm was put into a container of cigarette smoke. The third worm was put into a container of chocolate syrup.

The fourth worm was ! put into a container of good clean soil.

At the conclusion of the sermon, the Minister reported the following

results:

The first worm in alcohol - Dead.

The second worm in cigarette smoke - Dead.

Third worm in chocolate syrup - Dead.

Fourth worm in good clean soil - Alive.

So the Minister asked the congregation - What can you learn from this

demonstration?

A little old woman in the back quickly raised her hand and said,

"As long as you drink, smoke or eat chocolate, you won't have worms!" [upjoke.com]
