You
Can't Keep A Good Man Down!
A Sunday School teacher read a passage
from the Old Testament book of Jonah to her class:
"And
the Lord appointed a great fish to swallow up Jonah; and Jonah
was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights. Then
Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the belly of the fish,
saying 'I called to the Lord our of my distress and He
answered me.' ...and the Lord spoke to the fish, and it
vomited out Jonah upon the dry land." (Jonah 1:17)
When
she had finished reading, the teacher said, "Now, chil- dren,
you have heard the Bible story of Jonah and the whale. What
does this story teach us?"
Ten-year-old Mark shouted
out: "You can't keep a good man
down!"
