FENCE-SITTERS!



There was a large group of people gathered.

On one side of the group stood Lord Jesus. On the other side stood Satan. Seperating them was a fence running through the group.

The scene set, both Lord Jesus & Satan began calling to people in the group. One by one, each having made up his or her own mind, went to either Lord Jesus or Satan.

This kept going for a time. Soon enough, Lord Jesus had gathered around Him a group of people from the larger crowd, as did Satan.

One man joined neither group. He climbed the fence that was there & sat on it. Lord Jesus & His people left and so too did Satan & his people.

The man on the fence sat alone.

As this man sat, Satan came back, looking for something which he appeared to have lost. The man said, "Have you lost something?"

Satan looked straight at him & replied, "No, there you are. Come with me."

The man said, "But I sat on the fence. I chose neither you nor Him."

Satan said, "That's okay; I own the fence."

"Whoever is not with me is against me." – Lord Jesus Christ (Mat 12:30 KJV)
