Strange But True

There are more than one million animal species on Earth!

*The Elephant is one
of few mamals that can't jump!

*Bulls are colorblind;
therefore they will usually
charge at a matador's waving
cape no matter what color it
is...be it red or neon yellow!

*A giraffe can clean it's ears
with it's 21-inch tongue!

*The placement of a
donkey's eyes in it
head enables it to
see all four feet at all times!

*Camels have three eyelids
to protect themselves from
blowing sand!

*A hippo can open it's
mouth wide enough to fit
a 4 foot tall child inside!


Isn't it strange

...How everyone wants
front-row-tickets to
concerts or games,
but they do whatever
possible to sit in the
last row of the church?

...How we need to know about an event
for church 2-3 weeks before the day so
we include it in our agenda,
but we can adjust our schedule at the
last minute for other events?

...How we believe everything that
magazines and newspapers say,
but we question most of the words
of the Bible?

...How difficult it is to learn
a fact about God to share it
with others,
but how easy it is to learn,
extend and repeat gossip?

...How everyone wants a place in
heaven,
but they don't want to believe,
do, or say anything to get there?

It's strange, isn't it?

    IN THE HEAT Of A CANdLe

    Once upon a time, a A bee saw it in the process
    butterfly saw candlelight and told it: "Watch out
    and it was dazzled by its pretty butterfly, don't come
    glow, so it came nearby near the flame, I almost got
    to examine it close up, burned by it last night."
    and then flew around it The butterfly replied, "Don't
    admiring its appearence. worry. I'm careful and alert
    I'm just circling to discover
    what it is!"
    And it kept spinning around
    the candle until one of its
    was burnt inadvertently. The
    butterfly lost its balance, and
    fell on the burning candle,
    losing its life while saying,
    "Whoever tempts danger
    must fall in it one time."
  • That is so true "Whoever temps danger must fall in it one time". Keep going Coptic Servant, these are great!

    WHO AM I ?

    I'm the son of Pethuel,
    from the tribe of Reuben. I
    prophesied in the days of
    Abya the son of Jeroboam
    the son of Solomon the king.

    I rebuked the people and
    taught them and propheised
    concerning the dwelling of
    God in Zion, his passion,
    and the coming of the Holy
    Spirit, the comforter, upon
    the holy apostles on the day
    of pentecost. I prophesised that God said, "I will pour
    out my spirit on all flesh; your
    sons and daughters shall
    prophesy, your old men
    shall dream dreams, your
    young men shall see visions."
    (? 2:28)

    I prophesied also concern-
    ing the going forth of the law
    of the gospel from Zion when
    I said,
    "The grain offering and
    the drink offering have been
    cut off from the house of the
    Lord; the priests mourn, who
    minister to the Lord."
    (? 1:9)

    And I revealed that wars
    will break out on the earth
    after the advent of our
    Lord Jesus Christ. I spoke
    concerning the day of
    Ressurection saying,
    "The sun and the moon
    will grow dark and the
    stars will diminish their
    brightness...the heavens
    and earth will shake;
    but the Lord will be
    a shelter for his people."
    (? 3:15-16)


    what I want you to do is Guess who this prophet is and guess the books!
