No Jokes Please
For there are many preachers
That show a comedy,
They also use theatrics
But it pulls no weight with me.
God's Scripture they mix with humour
And delight the simple folk,
Who when they leave the meeting say;
"What a funny bloke."
But wisdom gives discretion
With understanding she doth speak
To keep man's mouth from rashness
If wisdom he will seek.
For I received wisdom's counsel
To me these words she spoke,
"Be instant with the Word and
forget about the joke."
Ecclesiastes 5:1,2
