An elderly woman had just returned to her home
from an evening church service when she was startled
by an intruder. She caught the burglar red-handed,
and yelled, "Stop! Acts 2:38 (meaning, repent and
be baptized...)!"
The burglar stopped dead in his tracks. The woman
then calmly called the police and explained what she
had done.
As the officer cuffed the burglar, he asked, "Why
did you just stand there? All the old lady did was yell
a scripture to you."
"Scripture?" replied the burglar, "I thought she said
she had an axe and two .38.
