Satan was constantly badgering Jesus about who was
better on his computer. He had been going at it for days, and God
was tired of hearing all of the bickering. Finally God said,
"Cool it.
I am going to set up a test that will run two hours and I will judge
who does the better job."
So down Satan and Jesus sat at the keyboards and typed away.
They moused. They did spreadsheets. They wrote reports. They
sent
faxes. They sent e-mail. They sent out e-mail with attachments.
They downloaded. They did some genealogy reports. They made cards.
They did every known job.
But ten minutes before their time was up, lightening suddenly
flashed
across the sky, thunder rolled, the rain poured and, of course, the
electricity
went off. Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every
curse
word known in the underworld. Jesus just sighed. The electricity
finally
flickered back on, and each of them restarted their computers.
Satan started searching frantically, screaming "It's gone! It's
all
gone!
I lost everything when the power went out!"
Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all of his files
from
the
past two hours. Satan observed this and became irate. "Wait!
He cheated, how did he do it?"
God shrugged and said, "Jesus saves."
