The apple is green

There was once a teacher, who argued with her student about the vadiality of the Holy Bible. The teacher would go on and on about human error, and make claim that the Holy Bible was at best a set of stories retold, most likely added to and not much truth existed in them.
The Christian student would argue back about how God's message will get through no matter what.

Well one day the teacher thought she would teach the student a lesson. She lined all 45 of her students up in a line, and put the Christian student at the end. She then went to the other side of the room and stated a loud that she was going to tell something the the first student and they were instructed to pass the message along to the end.

So she then leaned over and whispered into the first students ear "The apple is green." After that the first student leaned intot he ear of her fellow class mate and stated: "The apple is green, and has spots." That student then told the next, "The apple has no stem, does have spots, and is green." Well needless to say this went on and on until it reached the last Christian Student. The next to last student leaned over into his ear and said: "The piece of fruit that the teacher has, is an apple. It has some spots on it, and someone has taken a bite out of it. If you look close you can see if has no stem, and that it is also green."

With a smirk on Her face, the teacher said out loud to the Christian student to state what was just told to him, to state the message. He looked her dead in the eyes, and plainy said

"The Apple is green."

The teacher, stuned to a step back and her face dropped. He then went on to state that God's word will get through no matter what, for God is in control of all things.

So in this story we learn, from the message that God's word will always come through. We also see that even though the teacher did not realize it, she was being taught something. Not the student. This time, the student taught the teacher.

God is great, all the time!
