Jesus and Satan were having an ongoing argument about who was better on the computer. They had been going at it for days, and frankly, God was tired of all the bickering.
Finally fed up, God said, “THAT’S IT! I’ve had enough. I’m going to give you a test that will run for two hours, and from the results, I’ll judge who does the better job.”
So Satan and Jesus sat down at their keyboards and got to work. They typed, clicked, emailed (with attachments), downloaded files, created spreadsheets, wrote reports, designed charts and graphs – even ran genealogy reports. They did just about every task imaginable.
Jesus worked with calm, heavenly efficiency while Satan was fast as hell.
Then, ten minutes before time was up, lightning flashed, thunder roared, rain poured and suddenly, the power went out.
Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word in the underworld. Jesus simply sighed.
When the electricity came back, both restarted their computers.
Satan frantically searched his files, shouting, “It’s gone! It’s all GONE! I lost everything when the power went out!”
Meanwhile, Jesus quietly began printing out all his work from the past two hours.
Satan was furious. “Wait! That’s not fair! He cheated! How does he still have everything?!”
God just shrugged and said,
“Jesus saves.”
