A pastor wanted to see if a farmer in his congregation
was willing to support the Lord's work. So one day he
challenged him with some direct questions. "If you had
two farms," he asked, "would you be willing to give
one to God?" "Why, certainly!" replied the man. "I only
wish I were in a position to do so."
The minister then asked, "If you had $10,000, would you
give $5,000 to the Lord?" Without hesitation the man
responded, "How I'd love to have that kind of money! I'd
enjoy giving generously like that."
Then the preacher asked this pointed question: "If you
had two pigs, would you give one to the church?"
The farmer hesitated for a moment and then blurted out,
"That's not fair. You know I've got two pigs!"
