Acts 2:38

Padre

Milforum Chaplain
An elderly religious woman had just returned to her home from an evening of Bible study when she was startled by an intruder.

She caught the burglar robbing her home of its valuables and she yelled: "STOP! Acts 2:38! ("Repent and be baptized, in the name of Jesus Christ so that your sins may be forgiven").

The burglar stopped in his tracks. The woman calmly called the police and explained what she had done.

As the officer cuffed the man to take him in, he asked the
burglar, "Why did you just stand there? All the old lady did was yell a passage of the Bible at you."


"The Bible?" replied the burglar surprised. "I thought she said she had an axe and two 38's!"
