On a highway, just outside a city, two clergymen of different denominational persuasions were returning from their monthly ecumenical meeting of pastors. During the course of their ride, they engaged in a doctrinal discussion which quickly turned into a heated argument. The car they were driving began to swerve from left to right as it continued to pick up speed. Neither of the two passengers were aware of the careless manner in which the car was being handled nor were they aware that behind them another car was following. In this car sat a lone driver surrounded by an assortment of empty beer bottles. His car was also swaying as he watched the action in the car up ahead. As the two pastors continued arguing, their arms raising up and down, their fingers pointing at one another, they failed to negotiate a sharp turn. Spinning out of control, they hit the shoulder of the road and rolled down a steep embankment coming to rest upside down on the roof. The drunk following saw the whole thing and being concerned about the occupants of the overturned vehichle, brought his car to a sloppy stop. He was angled into the breakdown lane, his front wheels coming to rest on the grass at the top of the embankment. Carefully, he opened his car door, using it to support his weight and holding onto the car to keep from falling, he made his way to the left front fender, far enough to see down to the car below. As he was looking, he saw the two clergymen crawling out of the car windows to safety. Though drunk, he, in a slurred speech, cried out, “Hey, guys! Are you alright?” There was a moment of silence as the pastors caught their breath and then one of them replied, “We’re OK, we’ve got Jesus.” The drunk responded with concern in his voice, “Well, you better let him ride with me, you guys are gonna kill ‘im.” Of course, this is a joke, but what’s happening today is not a joke. There are too many arguments between Christians, too many scenes like this are being played out before the unsaved and we’re killing the Lord right before those whom he came to save. We’re killing any desire that the unsaved may have to be part of the family of God.
