10-The Canadian Champion. Fnday, January 12, 2001 A COSMIC SHOWDOWN -JESUS SAVES! A friend of mine, Victoria Staight, shared the suddenly tlashed across the sky, thunder rolted, the reality, but the punch lines expresses a powertul following story wîith me: rain poured and of course the electricity went off. tîberating truth -Jesus s ives! Jesus and Satan were having an ongoing argument about who was better on the computer. They had been going at it for days. God was tired of hearing ail of the bickering. Finally God said, "Cool lIL t ain going to set up a test that will mun two hours and I will judge who does the better job." So down Satan and Jesus sat at the keyboards and typed away. They moused. They did spreadsheets. They wrote reports. They set faxes. They sent e- mails. They sent out e-mail attachmenîs. They downloaded files, They prepared economic forecasts. They did some genealogy reports. They created personalized business cards. They did every job imaginable. Satan stared at hîs blank screen and screamed every curse word known in the underworld - Jesus just sighed and waited patiently. The electricity finally flickered back on, and ea.ch of them restarted up their computers. Satan started searching frantically, screaming "It's gone! lt's ail gone! I lost everything when the power went out!" Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out ail of bis files from the past two hours. Satan observed this and became irate. "Wait! He cheated, how did he do it?" God shrugged and said, "Jesus saves." But ten minutes before their time was up lighting This humorous anecdote bears no semblance of Jesus can save your tife! He can save your marriage! Hie can save you in spite of dire circum- stance. He can give you reasons to keep going when you feel like hope bas been exhausted! He can give you a new lease on life! He can liberate you from the bondage of addiction! There lis nobody like Jesus! To learn more about the wonderful Saviour and how He can impact your life, consider visiting a local church this week!
