The Debarked Dog
A man in California had his noisy dog debarked. One of the saddest sights you can see is a dog barking frantically with no noise coming out of its mouth. A man passing by saw this man standing at his gate with his dog, and approached the animal to pat it. Just as the dog opened its mouth to bark at the stranger, the animal's owner said, "No bark!" The dog opened its mouth and no noise came out. The stranger was very impressed with what he saw as incredible obedience. Some preachers are like that dog. They look like preachers and they go through the motions of preaching, but the bark of the Gospel is never heard coming from their mouths. They speak of faith, healing, the anointing, prayer, praise, the promises, prosperity, and power. They speak of everything but sin, righteousness, and judgment to come. Don't be like them. There goes another minute. Gone forever. Go share your faith while you still have time.
