A bishop, a priest and a deacon were lined up and about to be executed for preaching the Gospel in a foreign country.
The executioners brought out the bishop first, and when the guard shouted, “Ready … aim …” the bishop suddenly yelled, “EARTHQUAKE”, and when everyone looked around, he made a run for it.
They brought the priest out next. The guard shouted, “Ready … aim …” and suddenly the priest yelled, “TORNADO” and when everyone ducked, he too, ran off.
The deacon of course had it all figured out by then. When they brought him out and the guard shouted, “Ready … aim …” he deacon suddenly yelled, “FIRE.”
