Sermons For Sundays After Pentecost
One day a young skeptic knocked on the door of a rectory. A priest opened the door. The visitor said, "Come out. I want to talk to you about a problem." "No," the priest replied, "You come in. I want to talk to you about your sins."
After Adam and Eve sinned by eating the forbidden fruit, God came one evening and called to them, "Where are you?" Because they were afraid of what God might do to them for disobeying him, they hid themselves. At the end of the day God knocks on the garden door and says, "I have come to talk to you about your sins."
