Thou Shalt Not...

deacons how upset he was that his brand new bike had been

stolen.

The last place that he could remember leaving it was outside

the church. So he figured someone at the church had to have

stolen it.

One of his deacons came up with the idea of preaching a

sermon on the 10 Commandments, in hope that the bike would be

returned out of guilt.

Of course,the preacher agreed.

That Sunday morning, he began to get into his sermon and

started the 10 Commandments.

1.Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.

2.Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image....

and so on he went until he came to thou shalt not commit

adultery and the preacher stopped preaching and ended his

sermon.

After church the deacons asked the preacher why he stopped

half way through the sermon and he replied that he remembered

where his bike was.
