Cool Classic church marquee signs

This is a lame-o non-intellectual subject, but I was just curious to know if any of y'all out there have seen church marquee signs that made you laugh, or seethe, or puke...

Here's a couple I've seen around my holler:

"Stop, Drop and Roll Won't Work In Hell"

"Jesus: This Blood's For You"

"Exposure to the Son prevents burning."

"Prayer doesn't need proof. It needs practice."

That reminds me of one I saw yesterday:

"Pray, believe, receive. Pray, doubt, do without."

I also saw this on the Methodist church here in town (the ONLY one, surrounded by Southern Baptists): "Live long and prosper."

Fishing season opened here last weekend. In Alexandria, MN, I saw this sign:

"Be a fisher of men
bring them to us
Jesus will clean them"

I had this vision of a 50-ft Jesus with a filleting knife, disemboweling people and throwing their corpses on a grill.

And according to Matthew 25:40, Jebus said "I tell you the truth, just as you did it for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did it for me."

So, obviously, Jebus wants us to become flashers, or he'll send us to hell.
