Old and New Jokes

A bible study group was discussing the unforeseen possibility of their sudden death. The leader of the discussion said, We will all die some day, and none of us really knows when, but if we did we would all do a better job of preparing ourselves for that inevitable event. Everybody shook their heads in agreement with this comment.
Then the leader said to the group, What would you do if you knew you only had four weeks of life remaining before your death?

A gentleman said, I would go out into my community and minister the Gospel to those that have not yet accepted the Lord into their lifes.

Very good! said the group leader, and all the group members agreed, that would be a very good thing to do.

One lady spoke up and said enthusiastically, I would dedicate all of my remaining time to serving God, my family, my church, and my fellow man with a greater conviction.

That is wonderful! the group leader commented, and all the group members agreed, that would be a very good thing to do.

But one gentleman in the back finally spoke up loudly and said, I would go to my mother-in-laws house for the four weeks.

Everyone was puzzled by this answer, and the group leader asked, Why your mother-in-laws home?

Then the gentleman smiled sarcastically and said, Because that would be the longest four weeks of my life!
