You Took My Place
One day a man went to visit a church. He arrived early, parked his car, and
got out. Another car pulled up near him, and the driver told him, "I always
park there. You took my place!"

The visitor went inside for Sunday School, found an empty seat, and sat down.
A young lady from the church approached him and stated, "You took my place."

The visitor was somewhat distressed by this rude welcome, but said nothing.

After Sunday school, the visitor went into the church sanctuary and sat down.
Another member walked up to him and said, "That's where I always sit. You
took my place!"

The visitor was even more troubled by this treatment, but still said nothing.

Later, as the congregation was praying for Christ to dwell among them, the
visitor stood, and his appearance began to change.

Horrible scars became visible on his hands and on his sandal-clad feet.

Someone from the congregation noticed him and called out, "What happened to
you?"

The visitor replied, "I took your place."

Thank you Jesus!

That is so like it might be if Christ himsself in the flesh were to visit some of our churches. No doubt his " angles, unaware" have done so with simular reception.
