Little Johnny had just passed his driving test and asked his father when they could discuss using the family car.
His father made him a deal.
Dad:
“If you bring your grades up from a C to a B average, study your Bible a little, and get your hair cut, then we’ll talk about the car.”
Johnny thought about it and agreed.
About six weeks later, his father spoke to him.
Dad:
“Son, you’ve brought your grades up, and I’ve noticed you’ve been studying your Bible. But I’m disappointed that you still haven’t had your hair cut.”
Johnny:
“You know, Dad, I’ve been thinking about that. In my Bible studies, I noticed that Samson had long hair, John the Baptist had long hair, Moses had long hair, and there’s even strong evidence that Jesus had long hair.”
His father smiled and replied:
Dad:
“Did you also notice they all walked everywhere they went?”
