Sermon Illustrations
A Different Kind of Savior
The accounting department of a large insurance company was working on year-end reports when the computers went down. An emergency call was put in to the systems analyst. Troubleshooting company-wide, the man didn't appear until three hours later. Yet even then several clerks cheered, "He's here! Our savior."
Without a word, the systems analyst turned to leave. Panicked, the accounting manager cried, "Where are you going?"
"I'm leaving," the analyst said with a half-smile. "I remember what they did to the last savior."
