The devil's beatitudes Whew...talk about the hot seat!!!!
This one will make you stop and shudder! If the devil were to write his beatitudes,they would probably go something like this:
Blessed are those who are too tired, too busy, too distracted to spend an hour once a week with their fellow Christians -- they are my best work.
Blessed are those Christians who wait to be asked and expect to be thanked -- I can use them.
Blessed are the touchy who stop going to church -- they are my missionaries. Blessed are the trouble makers -- they shall be called my children.
Blessed are the complainers -- I'm all ears to them.
Blessed are those who are bored with the minister's mannerisms and mistakes -- for they get nothing out of his sermons.
Blessed is the church member who expects to be invited to his own church -- for he is a part of the problem instead of the solution.
Blessed are those who gossip -- for they shall cause strife and divisions that please me.
Blessed are those who are easily offended -- for they will soon get angry and quit.
Blessed are those who do not give their offering to carry on GOD'S work --for they are my helpers.
Blessed is he who professes to love GOD but hates his brother and sister --for he shall be with me forever.
Blessed are you who, when you read this, think it is about other people and not yourself -- I've got you too!
PASS THIS ON, WE ALL NEED TO BE REMINDED THAT THIS CAN HAPPEN TO ANY GOD BELIEVING PERSON, INCLUDING YOU AND ME.
HAVE A GREAT DAY WITH THE LORD BY YOUR SIDE!

Oooh, I never heard of the devil's beatitudes. That's something worth hearing though. It would make a great forward (if u still read them. lol.)
