"FUNNY YOU SHOULD ASK"
A Jewish businessman in Chicago sent his son to Israel for a year to absorb the culture.
When the son returned, he said, "Papa, I had a great time in Israel . By the way, I converted to Christianity."
"Oy vey," said the father. "What have I done?" He took his problem to his best friend, Ike.
"Ike," he said, "I sent my son to Israel , and he came home a Christian. What can I do?"
"Funny you should ask," said Ike. "I too, sent my son to Israel , and he also came home a Christian. Perhaps we should go see the rabbi."
So they did, and they explained their problem to the rabbi .
"Funny you should ask," said the rabbi. "I, too, sent my son to Israel , and he also came home a Christi an. What is happening to our young people?"
And so they all prayed, telling the Lord about their sons.
As they finished their prayer, a voice came from the Heavens:
"Funny you should ask," said the Voice.
"I, too, sent my Son to Israel and He became the founder of Christianity. His Name is Jesus Christ!" |
