A man went from the United States with his mother-in-law to the Land in Israel with a group of pilgrims. While they were there, the mother-in-law had a heart attack and died. So he went to the undertaker to make funeral arrangements.
The funeral director said, "You have two options. We can bury her body here for $500, or ship it to the United States at the cost of $5,000.
The man replied, "I prefer that you ship her body to the U.S."
The funeral director asked again, "Why spend so much money when we can bury her for one tenth of the cost?"
The man said, "You see, two thousand years ago they buried a guy here and after three days he rose to life! l don't want to take chances."
Thought for reflection
It’s true, that any animal and primarily Human Being learn out of experience.
Some experience we get only once for life. On the other hand, some other experiences we come across time-and-again.
What so ever, same experiences need not be the identical for all and every time.
"Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live"
John 11:25
"Prevalence matters with the person, place, time and occasion."
