Dennis, from Katy, Texas, needed some same-day dry cleaning before he left on a trip. He remembered a store with a huge sign, \u201cOne-Hour Dry Cleaners,\u201d on the other side of town, so he drove there to drop off a suit. After filling out the tag, he told the clerk, \u201cI need this in an hour.\u201d<\/p>\n
She said, \u201cI can\u2019t get this back to you until Thursday.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought you did dry cleaning in an hour.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo,\u201d she replied, \u201cthat\u2019s just the name of the store.\u201d<\/p>\n
Likewise, we who say we are Christians but fail to act like the one whose name we bear create confusion and disillusionment for those who have yet to believe.<\/p>\n
