You Shall Know Them By Their _____?

A young lady was soaking up the sun's rays on a Florida beach when a little boy in his swimming trunks, carrying a towel, came up to her and asked her, "Do you believe in God?" She was surprised by the question but replied, "Why yes I do." Then he asked her: "Do you go to church every Sunday?" Again her answer was "Yes!" Then he asked: "Do you read your Bible and pray every day?" Again she said, "Yes!" But by now her curiosity was very much aroused. At last the lad sighed and said, with obvious relief, "Will you hold my quarter while I go swimming?"

It sure makes a person comfortable to know whom he or she is dealing with, but remember a lot of dishonest people professing to be Christians would give the same answers as the young lady in the above story! It's by their fruits that we know them, not by their words!
