It was Halloween and there was a nightclub that had a costume contest and party. Next to the building stood a church. The service at the church was animated with a Pentecostal flavor. A drunk man dressed in a devil's suit, staggered out of the nightclub and into the church. Everybody, including the preacher, ran out in stark fear except for one dear lady who was too paralyzed to move.

Staggering, the drunk walked over to the lady and just stood there, looking at her. Shaking with fear, she said-"Please, Mr. Devil, don't hurt me. I have been faithful to you for 30 years!"

One day, there was a preacher,who had a big church. This preacher winded up sick in bed and summoned for a tax collector and a lawyer. As they approached the preacher's house, they looked at each other and wondered why they were summoned. In 20 years, the preacher, hardly spoke to them.

The preacher motioned, from his sick bed, for the two to enter his room. "You are, probably, wondering, why I summoned you to my bedside;" replied the preacher. The preacher, then directed the tax collector to stand at his right side and the lawyer to his left. Then, the preacher concluded with this statement- "My Lord Jesus, when he died at the cross, died with two thieves at his side. I want to do the same when I die!"

His wife, had already, left for work. Dismayed, he was shocked that his wife did not wake him up. He looked at his alarm clock, with a note written-"It's 5 am-Wake up!"
