Every Sunday, the town preacher rides his bike to church...
On this day, a member of the church notices that the preacher is walking.
He asks, "Where’s your bike?"
The preacher replies, "Someone stole it... "
"I think it may have been one of the members."
"Well," the member suggests, "for next Sunday’s sermon, you should preach on the Ten Commandments... "
"When you get to 'Thou Shalt Not Steal', really stress it and you’ll get your bike back."
The next week, the same member of the church sees the preacher riding his bike...
"I see you have your bike back... "
"Did you do as I suggested by preaching about the Ten Commandments?"
"Yes," replies the preacher.
"Did you stress 'Thou Shalt Not Steal?' " he asks.
"No," the preacher replies, "when I got to 'Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery'... "
"I remembered where I left it."
