True Lies (9 of 9)
Series: Braveheart
Pastor Jeff Schreve
John 8:41-44
A man was driving down the road. He saw a sign out, in front of someone's house, and it said, "Talking dog for sale." Guy thought, Wow, that, that's kind of cool talking dog for sale. So it just caught his attention and his curiosity. He pulled into that person's driveway. He got out of the car. He got to the front door. He knocked on the door. And he, a man answered the door, and he said, "You've got a talking dog for sale?" He said, "Sure do. He's out back."
And so, the gentleman walked out back. He saw a dog there. He said, "So you talk, huh?" Dog said, "Yep." He said, "So what's your story?" He said, "Well, I discovered this gift when I was very young." He said, "I immediately went to the CIA and said, 'Hey, I can talk and I can hear and I can understand.' And they put me to work instantly. They had me jet-setting all over the country and all over the world, and they would put me into meeting rooms where I could overhear world leaders and things like that, and, and gather reconnaissance and, and important information." Said, "I was one of their leading spies for eight years, but I got tired of all the jet-setting. So I asked them to give me an assignment where I could just be in one spot. And so, I did airport security, and I did that for years, and I foiled so many terrorist plots." He said, "I won all kinds of medals." But he said, "I got tired and I wanted to settle down, and I wanted to have a family. So I, I got married and had a slew of pups. And I've just retired and I've been here."
The man is just amazed. He goes back to the front of the house. He asks the owner of the house, he said, "How much for the talking dog?" He said, "Ten dollars." He said, "Ten dollars! Why on earth would you sell a dog like that for ten dollars?" He said, "He's such a liar" (laughter).
